My grandfather's name is Chen He. He is an old superstition.
He said that the name cannot be just one character, but must be two characters, otherwise the person's destiny will be incomplete.
But he was old and didn't have the inclination to change his name, so when he named my dad, he just chose two words, Chen Guowen.
And my original name was not Chen Mo, my name was Chen Fuguang.
The reason why I changed my name to Chen Mo is because I had a serious illness when I was a child and almost died. My grandfather invited an expert to come and see him. The expert told my grandfather that my destiny was very strange. Strange, I don’t remember it, because I didn’t believe in these things before.
I just remember that the master told my grandfather that there must be something wrong with my destiny, otherwise I would kill many people, so my grandfather changed my name to Chen Mo.
Just now, I heard the name 'Chen Guowen' from Brother Liu.
Meng Yifan and I thought of my dad almost at the same time.
But a name is just a title, not unique to everyone. Duplicate names are very common.
And although my family is not very poor, it is not rich either. In that house, the whole family lives in it.
That house used up all my grandfather's savings, so it was impossible for my family to have another house outside.
"Brother Liu, how old is this Chen Guowen? Where is he from?" I continued to ask Brother Liu.
Actually, I was a little nervous when I asked this question.
I'm afraid this isn't a coincidence...
Brother Liu thought for a while and said, "I really don't know about this, but I saw this man at work today. He is a middle-aged man, elegant, wearing a pair of glasses, and his accent should be from our local area."
My eyes widened and I panicked inside.
Because my dad also wears a pair of glasses, and he looks very gentle...
He used to work as an accountant in a company for more than ten years. Later, the company closed down, and he went to work as an accountant in a friend's factory.
Because he stays in the office all year round and has no exposure to wind or sun, although he is over fifty this year, he looks like he is only in his forties.
And he is a local!
Brother Liu's description of the first head of the house actually matched my father's, even the name was exactly the same!
With so many coincidences added together, is it still a coincidence?
This is a murder case!
How could my dad be involved in the murder?
Also, where did he get so much money and actually have an apartment outside? Does my grandfather know about this?
At this moment, I could barely conceal my panic.
Although Meng Yifan was also shocked, he didn't show it and glared at me: "You have hemorrhoids. If you need to urinate urgently, drain the water and come back after draining."
He was bailing me out.
I quickly stood up and pretended to smile: "Brother Liu, eat first, otherwise you will be cold later, I will go to the toilet."
After saying that, I grabbed my phone and walked out of the box, and quickly called my dad.
My dad turned off his phone and couldn't get through the phone at all.
My heart sank, my last vestiges of fantasy shattered.
His cell phone never turns off, so why did it turn off today?
It seems that he is really the first owner of that house. He was summoned by the police this afternoon, so his mobile phone was turned off, but I don't know if he released it.
My heart was so panicked and my mind was blank.
My dad is a good man. I have always known that he would not even dare to kill a chicken. I do not believe that he would do such a thing as killing someone.
But if he was really the first head of that house, and Li Xiumei died in that house, if the police couldn't find the real murderer, he couldn't explain it...
I didn't dare to think about it anymore, so I quickly called my grandpa again.
My grandfather answered the phone. His tone was a little different from usual, and I could tell it instantly.
"Xiao Mo, what's the matter? Why did you remember to call me?"
"Grandpa, where is my dad? Is he at home?"
There was sudden silence on the other end of the phone.
After a while, he said, "Your dad is at home. He just came back. What's wrong?"
"Where did he go before he came back?" I asked.
There was silence again.
"Working overtime, your dad has been a little busy recently, so he came back a little late. What happened?"
"It's okay. I'm going to come back tonight. You guys can go to bed later."
After that, I hung up the phone and didn't say much on the phone for the time being.
Judging from my grandfather’s tone, he should have already known that my dad was taken to the police station.
I gathered my emotions and returned to the box.
Originally, I wanted to ask Brother Liu about the case, but Brother Liu didn’t know much. When the murder case happened fifteen years ago, he was still in the police academy and had not graduated.
As for Li Xiumei's body hiding case, he was not a relevant investigator. Moreover, Li Xiumei's body was only exhumed yesterday, and the relevant investigators have not yet found many clues.
"Brother Liu, please help us pay more attention to these two cases."
This Li Xiumei is not only involved in the lives of Meng Yifan and me, but also my father. Naturally, I want to find out more information.
"If there is anything that needs to be fixed, just tell me."
"That's no problem, we are all brothers."
Brother Liu only cares about money, and I can see that.
However, he was still very cautious, stared at the two of us and asked: "Can you tell me why you insist on asking about these two cases? I still have to ask this clearly. If something happens, it will not be good for everyone. "
Meng Yifan and I didn't know how to explain it to him, but we still told him the truth.
"Brother Liu, you may not believe it. We are haunted by a ghost, and this ghost is most likely Li Xiumei..."
After hearing this explanation, Brother Liu almost dropped the crayfish he had just picked up to the ground in fright.
He swallowed and looked at us blankly.
"I believe you!"
"Do you really believe it?"
Meng Yifan and I were a little surprised.
He is a policeman, but he actually believes this?
"I'm telling you, this kind of thing has really happened to me."
Brother Liu became interested and told us about another case: "When I first became a police officer, I encountered a murder case. The victim was a young man. He was killed and even his body could not be found."
"Guess how we found his body later."
