So we have to find another way.
But some illusions have already emerged in Lu Yao's mind. Some designs that are beyond common sense are in line with Yu Xuanyi, a "conspirator" who is calm on the surface but bold in reality.
According to a more conventional approach, she and Liu Che should continue to work on the wavering Xie Zilin. But she didn't, and even directly persuaded Liu Che and her to end the investigation temporarily and rush to the next step.
Because Lu Yao had a vague premonition - the curtain of the past revelation has been halfway opened. If this matter comes to an end in other people's mouth, the nature will be completely different from before.
She needed to finally confirm with Yu Xuanyi in person.
But now, they still have another purpose. The previous investigation is still ongoing. Not just the amnesiac girl who suddenly appeared on the street with unknown origins, but also another child - the boy who said goodbye to the villagers and followed his mother's footsteps from the countryside to an unknown destination.
According to their inference, it is impossible for a proud woman like Dong Yinghong to change her surname for such a thing. The most she can do is change the name that brings a shadow to her. Because of this, the investigation basically focused on women with the surname Dong in the corresponding age group in the city. There should be a male child in the household registration book, and the registered surname should also be Dong. There are no restrictions on the relationship.
Dong Yinghong saw that everything had been exposed, and she could no longer maintain her dignity in the eyes of the villagers. In the end, she hated her dead husband so much that it was impossible for her to register her child with that man's surname. Correspondingly, in order to avoid being criticized as a single mother, it was not completely impossible to change the description of some relationships in that era.
Several days have passed since this information was submitted. Now, questionable results have emerged.
There was once a woman named Dong Yuanzhu registered in Changqing City. She used all her money to buy a small building and took advantage of the surge in housing prices to have basically no worries about food and clothing. She was able to support herself and a child registered as her younger brother just by collecting rent.
However, according to the contents of the archives, her personal life was somewhat difficult. Although she did not lack food and drink, she had been suffering from various illnesses over the past few years, and she was almost reduced to a medicine jar.
And one spring day, she died suddenly of cardiac arrest, alone in her home.
Normally in a situation like this, a woman's so-called brother would be the only one who could discover her body. But it happened that the time of death was within the range of the determination. This "younger brother" was 12 years old and happened to be traveling with his classmates from the elementary school graduation class. He fell off the cliff and disappeared in full view of the public. According to the height of the cliff, there was almost no chance of survival.
The first person to find the woman dead at home was also the police officer who wanted to inform her family of the tragic news, but found that the phone could not be reached. They were so puzzled that they had to go to the home to directly inform them of the follow-up arrangements, only to find that the owner of the home was also dead.
According to the relevant investigation, the woman had a related medical history and took medication regularly, but it could not solve the underlying problem. The cause of death was clear and definite - there were no doubts. The forensic doctor in charge of the examination said that the standard could be written into the textbooks. Her death makes sense, and then the problem arises with the other one.
No one can be seen in life, no corpse in death.
There was a torrent under the cliff, so it was normal that no body could be found. However, nearly half of the primary school class witnessed that the boy was conscious and fell off the cliff by himself, so there was basically no doubt about the outcome of suicide.
Only a few classmates could not accept this fact - the dead boy had a good personality and was usually quite cheerful, and did not look like he would commit suicide easily. What surprised the investigating officer was that although his classmates all had this impression, none of them claimed to be extremely close to the boy. It was like the "cheerful" impression was all reflected by onlookers.
This is weird.
He obviously lived among so many people, but while leaving such an impression, he did not have any deeper contact with anyone, let alone give any detailed description. Maybe it was because of his usual smile that gave people the wrong impression, or maybe it was just because this boy was really good-looking, which made children who were born with a preference for looks feel friendly.
Dong Yichen - this is the name registered on the household registration of that young man.
And the photo of Dong Wanzhu is also among the archives. Not only was she almost consistent with the previous description of Dong Yinghong by the villagers, but even after this high-definition photo was presented, Lu Yao could find that she and Yu Xuanyi were indeed similar in appearance. The photo information of Dong Yichen is not very clear.
In any case, according to the records, the two key figures are already in a state of "death". The small building where they originally lived and owned has been overthrown and rebuilt. It is still under construction and has long lost its former appearance.
All you have to do is ask.
The first person they found was Dong Yichen's classmate.
That spring trip was a trip organized by Dong Yichen's classmates in the first semester of sixth grade, and the organizer was a very popular boy in the class. Compared with the various stereotypes in the conversation, the opinions of the child who has the most friends are undoubtedly worthy of reference.
"He was following the crowd. At first, none of us noticed any unusual movements on his part."
The boy who once organized outings for dozens of primary school graduating classmates is now a trainee engineer in a factory. He was very busy at work, so Liu Che also called to confirm that he was at the factory before rushing over, taking advantage of the engineer's free lunch time to ask questions.
Lu Yao now had a question: "You said 'at the beginning'?"
The engineer was a little scared when he thought about it. After all, ordinary people rarely have the opportunity to see a life disappear in front of them - let alone a classmate who has been with him day and night for five years.
"We were just climbing a mountain at the time. We made an appointment to climb separately first, and then we all gathered at a viewing platform at the top of the mountain before continuing up. This way, those who go slowly won't be too hasty, and those who go fast don't have to think too much. .The incident happened on one of the observation decks..."
There are five meeting points set by the students who organized the outing. There are three uphills and two downhills. They are all very organized and clearly pointed out on the map for all the children.
The place where the incident occurred was precisely the penultimate meeting point.
The scenery is beautiful and everything is renewed. The terraces of the viewing spots are usually covered with walls made of stacked bricks and tiles, forming a circle around the terrace. From the extension of the wall, you can reach the endless spring scenery.
In such a place, such an unexpected moment.
At that time, some people were lying on the edge of the wall enjoying the scenery, some were laughing and playing in the pavilion, and some were panting and ready to rest for a while...
Suddenly, with the panicked scream of a female voice, everyone's eyes were focused on the same place - the shadow at the edge of the terrace. The boy was sitting by the wall, made a hissing gesture, and immediately jumped down.
