While sitting at the folding table waiting for the food to be served, Lao Wang suddenly looked out of the corner of his eye and said, "You are so awesome! I felt uncomfortable for a while when I first saw the corpse. Why are you so calm? I admire you!" As he spoke, he gave a thumbs up to Yu Guang.
After glancing at him out of the corner of his eye, he lowered his gaze and said calmly: "I've just seen worse scenes." For example, that summer six years ago, in the bedroom of his hometown.
Lao Wang wanted to say something else, but Xu Mingzhi suddenly pushed the cup next to him and said, "Drink water."
Lao Wang looked back at him, with a hint of warning in his eyes.
Lao Wang understood and shut his mouth wisely.
Of course, what he just said was not just casual chat. But if he had any doubts about Yu Guang, there was no question of it. He was just curious.
Whether it's Xi Yong's incident or Yu Guang's performance, they all illustrate one thing, that is, Yu Guang has a calmness about human life that ordinary people don't have. It can even be said to be indifferent.
Such a person either does not commit a crime, or he is a demon lurking in the darkness, making it difficult for you to catch traces even though you know he is around.
Compared with Xu Mingzhi's trust in Yu Guang, Lao Wang was somewhat afraid of him.
However, these thoughts cannot be told to Xu Mingzhi.
Soon, their orders arrived. A large pot of stewed chicken feet was so crispy that it melted in your mouth, and the aroma spread out with the heat, which immediately made the three people who were already hungry lose interest in talking.
Seven or eight minutes later, Yu Guang first put down his chopsticks. He glanced at Xu Mingzhi, who was eating and texting on his mobile phone, and said, "I'm done eating. Let's go first."
Xu Mingzhi looked up at him when he heard the sound and said, "We are almost ready, let's get together. I'll see you off just in time."
"No, it's not too far from here. I just want to take a walk to eat." Yu Guang said.
Xu Mingzhi didn’t insist either. After watching Yu Guang go away, he continued to lower his head and send messages. After a while, he put down his phone, took a sip of water, and suddenly turned to look at Lao Wang and asked, "You seem to have some thoughts about Yu Guang?"
Lao Wang's hand that was picking up the chicken feet paused, then he put a chicken foot into the bowl, raised his eyes to meet Xu Mingzhi's gaze, and said frankly: "I can't talk about my ideas, I'm just a little curious. He seems to be about the same age. Are you about right?"
Xu Mingzhi nodded: "One year younger than me."
Lao Wang nodded and asked again: "Have you checked about his brother's matter?"
"Yes." Xu Mingzhi responded softly. After returning from Xiyong, he also re-investigated the case. However, seven years have passed and the case was not filed, so what can be found is still limited.
"Then do you know how his mother died?" Lao Wang asked again.
Xu Mingzhi was stunned for a moment and looked at Lao Wang in confusion: "How did you die?"
Lao Wang lowered his head and took a bite of chicken feet, and then said with emotion: "After his brother disappeared, his mother did not accept the results of the police investigation and kept petitioning. Later, she once had an argument with the staff of the Petition Office. When the police came to mediate, his mother suffered a heart attack and was sent to the hospital for rescue but could not be rescued. His father also suffered a stroke and stayed in the hospital ICU for nearly two months. It seems that the government spent money behind this incident. Two million, maybe, after signing the settlement agreement."
These were things that Xu Mingghi had not found when he checked the information before. He looked at Lao Wang, and after the initial shock, he frowned and asked, "How do you know this?"
Lao Wang replied: "This matter was a big commotion in Yuehu City back then. I was in the city bureau at the time. Have you forgotten? I was also involved in the case of his brother's disappearance."
These words surprised Xu Mingzhi. He looked at Lao Wang in disbelief: "Were you involved in handling the case at that time?"
Lao Wang considered the answer: "It is not considered to be involved in handling the case. But at that time, a high school student suddenly disappeared from school. The impact of this matter was not very good if it spread. The superiors also requested that the results be released as soon as possible. So at that time, as long as the bureau was free, People were sent out to find people.”
After hearing this, Xu Mingzhi pondered for a moment and asked, "Do you think there was any doubt in the case at that time? Did Yu Guang's brother really run away on his own?"
Lao Wang pursed his lips and didn't know how to answer for a moment. To say that there is no doubt is to tell lies. But the evidence at the time was not enough to prove that Yu Guang's brother was taken away. Moreover, it has been so many years. If this case is uncovered again and the investigation is restarted, I don’t know how many people will be implicated.
Thinking about it, he looked at Xu Mingzhi. Based on the relationship between Xu Mingzhi and Yu Guang, he couldn't guarantee whether Xu Mingzhi would have any ideas if he said he had doubts.
Therefore, Lao Wang thought about it again and again and replied: "I just helped find someone at the time. The specific case information is not very clear, but from the information I learned, it is possible that Yu Guang's younger brother left the school on his own. higher."
Xu Mingzhi looked at Lao Wang and knew that the answer was a bit high.
Lao Wang also knew that his answer was difficult to win Xu Mingzhi's trust, so after thinking about it, he said solemnly: "Captain Xu, I'm serious, you'd better not get too close to Yu Guang. I'm not I say there is something wrong with him, but I'm worried that if one day he finds clues about his brother, and then finds out that his brother's disappearance was related to someone else, he is likely to do something irrational. . If you get too involved with him, it will be difficult to do so."
Xu Mingzhi picked up the cup and drank some water, remaining silent.
Lao Wang also wisely said nothing more. Anyway, everything that needs to be said has been said. Xu Mingzhi will know what to do, it just depends on what he chooses.
After a few minutes, the two got up and left. On the way back to the city bureau, no one mentioned Yu Guang again. The conversation just now seemed like it had never happened.
Back at the city bureau, He Yu happened to come out of the Forensic Medicine Center. When he saw the two returning, he immediately approached them.
"Are you going to see the corpse?" Xu Mingzhi asked, seeing the excitement remaining on his face.
He Yu nodded: "It turns out that this waxy corpse looks like this, and it feels a little like a mummy."
Xu Mingzhi showed no interest in talking to him about the corpse, and only asked him: "How is the investigation going that you asked you to investigate?"
He Yu was stunned for a moment, and finally realized that the excitement he showed was somewhat inappropriate. He couldn't help scratching his head in embarrassment and said: "No car came to Miaoshan Village on the night of the 2nd, but there was one on the 1st." The car went to Miaoshan Village and stayed there for more than an hour before leaving. I checked the car and found that it belonged to a person named Liu Jinye. However, this person was an outsider and had no social security information in Yuehu City, so I couldn't find it. Wherever he works, he doesn’t have any real estate in his name.”
Xu Mingzhi walked to the criminal investigation building while listening to He Yu's report. After listening to what he said, I thought about it and asked, "Did the surveillance camera capture him?"
He Yu shook his head: "The surveillance outside Miaoshan Village is not high-definition. Although half of the face was captured, it was very blurry. I have already sent it to the technical department. I wonder if the facial features can be restored."
"Notify me immediately when there are results. In addition, contact the Qingshan Town Police Station and send Liu Jinye's photo, and ask them to visit Miaoshan Village early tomorrow morning to see if anyone knows this person." Xu Mingzhi ordered again. .
"Okay, I'll contact you right away." After He Yu agreed, he asked curiously: "Boss, did you take Yu Guang to Miaoshan Village today?"
Xu Mingzhi looked back at him and asked lightly: "What's wrong? Is there a problem?"
He Yu was more alert this time, and immediately noticed that Xu Mingzhi seemed to be in a bad mood when he mentioned Yu Guang, so he quickly said: "Nothing, I just asked casually. Then I will contact the Qingshan Town Police Station first. ." After that, he turned around and ran away.
