I looked at Gu Chen, and then said: "On the high mountain, there is no signal on the mobile phone, let alone a network cable. Therefore, the murderer must not be in the deep mountains. It is also impossible for the murderer to be on the road. A large number of people are heading to Xingdong Village now. The murderer would never dare to stay on the road. At such a late night, a car driving on the road is 100% suspected."
Gu Chen nodded.
I looked at Gu Chen and continued: "And judging from the time, there is no way for the murderer to be transferred to the city or another village. Therefore, the murderer must still be in this area. I think, maybe it is in this area." In the village."
After all, we both fell silent. A gust of cold wind slowly blows over, making people shiver in this environment. That's pretty creepy, if my guess is true. In the dark night, when a group of people are searching for the murderer, the murderer is actually hiding in this village. Perhaps at this moment, he is laughing at us in a place where we can see us but we can't.
I took out my mobile phone again and looked at the photo of Guan Zengbin. The background of the photo is very dark, but the space is very large. In Xingdong Village, such a large and empty place seems to be rare. The wall in the background is the kind of cement plastered wall surface, which has not been painted, so it still looks gray.
This place is definitely special in Xingdong Village. In ordinary families, it will be scratched a layer of white, and it will not just be in the state of a rough house. Thinking of this, I immediately found the village chief who had been standing aside for a long time.
The village head had been acting as air for several hours, and when he saw me calling him, he hurried over.
I took out my mobile phone and said to the village chief: "Village chief, look at the background, do you know where this is? It's in Xingdong Village, or near Xingdong Village."
The village chief took my mobile phone and saw Guan Zengbin. He was surprised at first, and then I saw his face blushing. But at this time, the village head didn't care about other matters of men and women, and stared at the wall behind Guan Zengbin.
After looking at it for a long time, the village head said: "I really don't know about this place, but it looks a bit like an activity center. In the past, Wu Xiufen wanted to build an activity center for the village, but he couldn't pull it off. There was less cement, but later, for some unknown reason, it was interrupted.”
I frowned and said, "Where is the activity center? Is it big?"
The village head shook his head, then waved his hand and said: "It was well said when it was built, but I didn't know what happened when it was halfway through the construction. Wu Xiufen suddenly said that it would not be built. We should It is also dispensable for this activity center, it is best if someone builds it, and there is no loss if no one builds it, so one wall was built in that activity center, and the rest of the walls were not built."
Then, the village head looked at the phone and said: "You see, this space is quite large, and this kind of bed seems to be specially used for hospitals. I don't know how it was brought in. But looking at the background, it should be Not the activity center. The activity center has only one wall, and this is a closed space. But, the light is really dim, my old eyes are dim, and I really can’t see clearly unless I look carefully.”
After hearing the words of the village chief, I realized this. Compared with the current energy-saving lamps, the lights inside are really pitifully dark, and there are some dark corners in the distance that are not illuminated. On the one hand, this shows that the lights in this place are not bright, and on the other hand, it also shows that this place is very big.
And most likely, this bed is just the tip of the iceberg we see, in the rest, there is still a lot of room. So, what exactly is this place? In Xingdong Village, where can there be such a large open space without being discovered.
I shook my head, and asked the village chief about Wu Xiufen's plan to build the activity center: "Village chief, when Wu Xiufen built the activity center, did you have everything ready? That's what you need to build the activity center." s material."
The village head nodded, and then said: "This matter has not been too far in the past, probably five or six years ago. At that time, Wu Xiufen didn't know why, so she said that she would build an activity center for the village. I hope I can help A piece of land was approved. This is a good thing, so I agreed. You said, this is also to enrich the cultural and recreational activities of the villagers, right?"
"Well, no problem," I said.
The village chief looked at me and continued: "That's right, so I quickly approved a piece of good land and asked Wu Xiufen to build this activity center, but Wu Xiufen refused to do it and insisted on another piece of land, so I also I don’t know why. Because that piece of land is a bit remote compared to this piece of land. Normally, the villagers wouldn’t go there either.”
I frowned and continued listening.
The village head said: "I have discussed with her several times but there is no result. But, since she paid for it, what else do you have to say, and finally agreed. So Wu Xiufen took charge of the construction of this activity center , but for some unknown reason, Wu Xiufen quarreled with the workers who built the activity center, and those people all left, and Wu Xiufen seemed to be pissed off, so she stopped."
Sighing, the village chief continued: "At first I thought it was Wu Xiufen who was angry, but later I found out that Wu Xiufen really quit. But, fortunately, the land of the repair activity center is relatively remote, otherwise if If it can’t be repaired, we have to find someone to dismantle it.”
I hugged my right shoulder with my left arm, and leaned on it with my right arm: "Building an activity center requires a lot of bricks and cement. Even if the construction team leaves, the villagers will probably be able to repair it."
The village head shook his head, and then said: "It's really not like this. Later, those red bricks and cement were all sold by Wu Xiufen, and they were taken away by truckloads."
Hearing this, I suddenly felt as if I had mastered something, and said, "Did you see Wu Xiufen pull away all the cement and red bricks during luck?"
The village chief shook his head, and then said: "I'm really not sure about this. You said, no one would be free to watch Wu Xiufen deal with these things. Anyway, it took a week to transport them away. That's what the center is about."
I pulled my hair with my hands. If all this was done to deceive others, Wu Xiufen did not intend to build an activity center from the beginning, but just to transport cement and red bricks and even hospital beds into the village through this method. It is indeed a good way to come without being suspected.
The villagers only knew that Wu Xiufen transported these bricks and cement away, but they never knew whether Wu Xiufen transported all the bricks and cement away, and if the remaining part covered the background of Guan Zengbin’s photo. What about this place? This is not impossible.
And this means that it is necessary for us to go to the old activity center to have a look, what if there is any gain
I looked at my watch, I had already spent forty minutes talking and thinking. And now, there are still 80 minutes left before the murderer gave us. Eighty minutes, that is, at three o'clock in the morning, the murderer will see the intact bowl. No, or how long it will take to get it right.
I said to Gu Chen: "Let's go, we are useless here now, village chief, take us to the activity center."
The village head nodded, and then said, "Let's drive, we'll be there in ten minutes."
Guided by the village chief, Gu Chen drove to his destination.
At this time, Xiao Liu called. Before I could speak, Xiao Liu said: "Wu Meng, I found Wu Xiufen's family, which is Wu Xiufen's husband and son. When I and them When the two explained the situation, they thought Wu Xiufen was already dead."
I opened my mouth and asked, "Did you find out anything? Why did Wu Xiufen abandon her husband and son and run to a village where no one knew her and she didn't know anyone else?" Married to someone else."
Xiao Liu said: "Since Wu Xiufen left, her husband and son haven't seen Wu Xiufen. They didn't know that Wu Xiufen was married to someone else. It's just that when they talked about that year, the two still remember it fresh. Yes. They said that since Wu Xiufang died, Wu Xiufen had some mental problems."
"Mental problems?" I asked.
Xiao Liu continued: "That's right, Wu Xiufang hanged herself in front of Wu Xiufen and Wu Jianguo in the factory back then. There seems to be some shadow, Wu Xiufen has to be woken up by nightmares every night, Wu Xiufen Xiufen has mentioned more than once that she cannot stay in this place."
"Nightmare?" I asked, "Do you know what a nightmare looks like?"
Xiao Liu said: "Wu Xiufen's family members didn't know about this, but they just had nightmares every day, and later they became suspicious during the day. They couldn't live a normal life at all. Until the day of the burial, when they came back from the cemetery At that time, Wu Xiufen was always out of her mind, as if she had lost her soul. That night, Wu Xiufen didn't know where she went, and she never came back. When she left, Wu Xiufen left 30,000 yuan money, I took 30,000 yuan with me.”
After hearing Xiao Liu's words, a picture appeared in my mind, maybe Wu Xiufang's death was not that simple at all. If her sister really committed suicide, Wu Xiufen should not be so frightened. Perhaps the trickiness of this is the reason why Wu Xiufen has never stopped burning black paper for more than 30 years.
But what's hidden in this
"So can Wu Xiufang's family members be found?" I asked Xiao Liu.
"There is no news yet." Xiao Liu said: "After Wu Xiufang's death, her husband and children did not even attend Wu Xiufang's funeral or even encoffining and burial. All of these were arranged by Wu Xiufen and Wu Jianguo. Therefore, we must Finding Wu Xiufang's family is not an easy task."
Xiao Liu said: "However, I will continue to investigate. If there is any news, I will inform you as soon as possible."
