Lu Yatong opened the door, glanced at the people outside, and asked doubtfully:
"Who are you?"
"From the police station."
The old bacon showed his ID.
"Oh, come in."
When the police station came to visit, Lu Yatong behaved unusually calmly.
Lao Bancou took his assistant into the house.
Lu Yatong poured tea for them: "What can I do for you?"
"I came here for a case."
Lao Bancou got straight to the point: "Fei Jiashi raped your case."
"This is a case."
Lu Yatong was very calm: "Isn't the case already finalized and Fei Jiashi is in jail?"
"We now have some suspicions."
The old man's face was serious: "Ms. Lu Yatong, can you tell me the whole process of the crime again?"
"sure."
Lu Yatong brushed her hair: "At that time, I also left very important evidence, just because I was afraid that he was a prosecutor and would overturn the case through his connections."
"Oh, really?" Regarding this unexpected situation, Lao Bacon was startled: "Do you have evidence in your hand?"
"Yes, please wait for a moment and I'll get it to you."
Lu Yatong stood up and walked into the bedroom.
This is so unexpected.
According to what the chief said, Fei Jiashi's so-called rape case was completely unjust.
How could there be particularly important evidence?
I waited there for about ten minutes, but still didn't see Lu Yatong come out.
The old bacon walked to the bedroom door and knocked gently: "Ms. Lu, are you ready?"
Inside, there was no reaction at all.
The old bacon knocked hard on the door again, and then pushed.
The bedroom door was locked.
Old Bacon had an ominous feeling in his heart: "Come here, help!"
He and his assistant worked together to open the door.
Then, Lao Bacon was stunned.
Lu Yatong was lying on the bed, seemingly asleep.
However, there was a trace of blood at the corner of her mouth.
The old bacon rushed over and poked his nose.
She is dead!
…
"She died. She committed suicide by taking poison, potassium cyanide."
Lao Barou's face was full of frustration: "I was completely unaware that she would commit suicide. She acted too calmly and showed no flaws at all. I request punishment."
"Punishment? What kind of punishment?" Meng Shaoyuan said calmly: "If it were me, I would be fooled. This case has been in the past for so long, who would have thought that someone would suddenly come to investigate again? According to normal thinking, Lu Yatong would not Beware of anything.
According to your description, when Lu Yatong heard that the old case was brought up again, he immediately said that there was important evidence to be produced, and no one would be suspicious. It's so normal, really so normal.
At least, this explains a few things. Lu Yatong has been waiting for this day to come. As soon as this happens, she will immediately choose to commit suicide. She was threatened, she had important information, or someone close to her was controlled.
So, to protect these, she had to die. Potassium cyanide? How could an ordinary person have the ability to obtain potassium cyanide? Rape case? This was a carefully planned conspiracy from beginning to end. "
Meng Shaoyuan's face was heavy: "I'm afraid what we are facing is far beyond our imagination. The energy of the other party is also far beyond our expectations!"
He picked up a cigarette, but did not light it. Instead, he was lost in thought about something.
After a while, he suddenly said: "No, if it was just Fei Jiashi's rape case, Lu Yatong would not be dead. Since the other party's energy is so great, even if we find evidence, they will still have a way to make Lu Yatong Killed Fei Jiashi.
When Lu Yatong died, there was no evidence to back it up. We really found enough evidence to exonerate Fei Jiashi. Without Lu Yatong's trump card, the other party would be unable to recover. There is no need for them to force Lu Yatong to death! "
"You mean, Lu Yatong also knows other very important things?" Old Bacon began to understand.
"Yes, it's very important." Meng Shaoyuan pondered: "Did you find anything at Lu Yatong's house?"
"Everything is here." Old Bacon pointed to a box on the ground.
Meng Shaoyuan immediately came to the box and looked through it one by one.
A book inside aroused his interest.
It was the detective mystery "The Daughter of Time" written by Josephine Tey, a British female writer and one of the three greatest heroines in the second golden period of mystery history.
It's also in English.
Meng Shaoyuan flipped through it and noticed that one page had a corner folded as a reading mark.
This story tells a well-known story in British history.
In order to usurp the throne, Richard III murdered two young princes imprisoned in the Tower of London. The "crime" is heinous and even more thought-provoking.
However, Inspector Grant, who was sitting in the hospital bed, based on his careful reasoning, overturned the four hundred-year-old historical conclusion in one fell swoop, and told everyone:
The truth of the matter may not be what you hear or see!
And on this page, it is written that two little princes are imprisoned in the Tower of London, and their lives may be threatened at any time.
On this page, there is also a line of English written in pen:
"The truth is the daughter of time!"
"That's an English proverb."
Meng Shaoyuan murmured: "There are two translations. One is 'time will prove everything, let us just forget it and hope that time will give birth to the truth.'
Of course, there is another translation, 'time will eventually give birth to the truth, the truth will come to light, and the retribution will be unpleasant'. I think this was written by Lu Yatong, and what she wanted to express was the latter! "
Meng Shaoyuan held the book in his hand: "Lu Yatong is a very smart woman. She understands English and she also knows the truth, but she cannot tell it because her child is controlled by others."
"Child?" Old Bacon immediately became concerned.
"Yes, and it is very likely that they are two children." Meng Shaoyuan glanced at the book in his hand again: "She specially marked this page. This seems very ordinary, but she is actually conveying the message.
The person controlling her probably doesn't understand English and has little interest in English books. Even if he takes it back to find someone to translate it, it is just a normal English book.
And this British proverb is also the source of the title of the book "The Daughter of Time". It's no big deal to memorize it. However, when the two are put together, their meanings are quite different.
Lu Yatong knew that if someone discovered this book and cracked the secret of this page, that person must be a very smart person and might be able to find out the truth. As it happens, I am that very smart person! "
Everyone knows that Master Meng always likes to brag.
But this time, Old Bacon didn't feel that Master Meng was bragging at all.
He really found a very inconspicuous secret hidden in the book!
Lu Yatong’s last request for help:
"Time will eventually bring out the truth, the truth will come to light, and you will be punished!"
"Lu Yatong must have left other clues. She won't just do these, I'm sure!"
