"Yes, yes," a woman's voice with Western Sichuan dialect suddenly came from Fan Dehua's phone, "You ghost, you have no memory of this..."
"I know nothing," Fan Dehua urged, "Tell me, mother-in-law, is there such a brother in our family?"
It turns out that this woman is Fan Dehua's ex-wife, who has been divorced from Van Dehua for many years.
However, although she is just an outsider, she is actually a top-notch eighth-grade mother-in-law. No gossip among relatives and friends can escape her control.
Therefore, Vander Waal really had no choice but to bite the bullet and call her.
Unexpectedly, as soon as he explained the situation, his ex-wife gave an affirmative answer.
"Why are you so anxious? The baby's matter has not been settled with you yet!" the woman complained, "He didn't take the right path today, and it was all because of you that he was crooked..."
"Krima (hurry up), mother-in-law, I really have something serious to say, hurry up and tell me..." Fan Dehua turned red with anxiety, and then yelled a lot of local dialects angrily, which even Zhao Yu couldn't understand.
"Okay, okay, I said, I said..." Fan Dehua's ex-wife couldn't stand him anymore, and finally said angrily, "Have you forgotten that in Luolong County, you have an uncle and brother whose whole family has disappeared?"
"Luo Long? Who is it?" Fan Dehua still couldn't remember.
"Ouch... I'm telling you..." the woman babbled faster, "There is a second brother in your uncle's family. When he was a child, he was adopted by your third uncle's second uncle. Although they both have the surname Fan, he is no longer counted as you. My biological uncle, do you know?"
“…”
After these words, Zhao Yu, Miao Ying and Fan Dehua all looked at each other in silence.
"Oh, you may have forgotten," the woman continued, "your uncle went to western Sichuan to make a living. In order to leave a root for the family, he adopted one of his children to a childless one, your third grandfather. My second uncle!
"When we got married, his family came over to give us a gift! A cabbage was given as a gift...
"He is about 20 years older than you, and his son is also a few years younger than you..."
son…
Zhao Yu quickly understood what Fan Dehua's ex-wife said. Although it sounded confusing, he already felt that he was close to the end.
"Then tell me how his family disappeared?" Vander Waal pressed.
"It's not considered missing. I heard..." the woman said, "It's because the family moved away to avoid debts. They ran away!"
"Running away?" Fan Dehua was a little confused, "Then how did you know it was him?"
"It must be so," the woman explained. "First, he is your biological uncle, Brother Mucuo, right? Second, his entire family is missing, including his son, daughter-in-law, and grandson. Also, didn't you ask about the 1990s? Missing
"Their family moved away in 1992. That year I went to Luolong to attend your third uncle's funeral, and I heard it clearly..."
"Then...then...hiding from debt...isn't it the same as disappearing?" Vander Waal pondered and said.
"Oh, you stupid idiot," the woman scolded, "Have you ever seen someone who has been hiding from debts for 30 years? Let me tell you, since 1992, their family has never been seen again. This is not the case. Called missing?"
"Then... that..." Under Zhao Yu's instruction, Fan Dehua asked, "Do you know their names and where they live in Luo Long?"
"Ask your second uncle's Viagra," the woman said, "He should know that his family lived next door to this family..."
"Oh... Viagra..." Fan Dehua covered his face, "I still owe him 3,000 yuan and I haven't paid him back..."
After that, Van De Waal's ex-wife scolded Van De Waal again and then hung up the phone.
"Okay," Zhao Yu said, "Hurry up and call the director of your school, ask for leave, and come with us to Luolong County to find your brother De Weiwei..."
"Ah? I want to go too?" Fan Dehua was confused, "I'm not lying, I really owe money..."
"Forget it," Miao Ying thought for a while, thinking that Fan Dehua himself didn't understand the situation, and it would be of no use to follow him, so he immediately said, "Give us your address and phone number, and we can ask it ourselves!"
Fan Dehua naturally liked Miao Ying's suggestion, so he immediately handed over his detailed address and phone number to Zhao Yu and got out of the car.
Zhao Yu set the navigation, started the car, and headed straight to Luolong County.
"In this way, everything matches up!" Miao Ying said after getting on the road, "Luolong County is the closest county to Tuoshan. It seems that the murderer should be from Luolong County, which is consistent with our initial estimate.
"It's just that I didn't expect that things would go back that far!"
"He disappeared because he was hiding from debts..." Zhao Yu said, "And Ba Hongxue and others are all gangsters, so the relationship between the two parties is almost clear!"
"Yes," Miao Yingyan said, "The old man moved with his son, grandson and daughter-in-law. Now that we have found the bones of the old man, grandson and daughter-in-law, then... the remaining son is obviously the biggest suspect!"
"Yes, a family of three died tragically in the mountain temple. This son must have hatred! Oh..." Zhao Yu sighed and said, "It seems that I can finally go to Yaoming to participate in the murder memoirs!"
"Don't be too happy, my Detective Zhao," Miao Ying said, "Don't forget that the last victim in the Shuijing case has been dead for three years. In three years, the murderer has already gone away!
"Even if we find out his identity, he may not be so easy to catch."
"It doesn't matter," Zhao Yu said calmly, "As long as we can confirm his identity and place a wanted order, I won't have anything to worry about!
"My mission is just to find out the truth! Meow meow..." Zhao Yu said slightly excitedly, "Wang Can called me yesterday. He said that he suspected that there was another reason for the murder memoirs!"
"Really?" One sentence aroused Miao Ying's interest, "Why?"
"Because Wang Can has asked relatives and friends of the suspect Nong Zhifa, and their impressions of Nong Zhifa are that they are impulsive, irritable, and reckless.
"The cases in the memoirs are all rough and detailed, showing that the murderer is a cautious and cautious person. There is an obvious difference between the two.
"Do you remember the video murder case?" Zhao Yu said, "Did we also encounter this kind of problem when we initially listed Kang Ziqing as a suspect
"What happened in the end? Does it prove that Kang Ziqing is not the real culprit in the video murder case?"
"But, it doesn't seem to be the same, right?" Miao Ying said, "Although the case in the murder memoirs is similar to the murder video case, the method of committing the crime is more brutal!
"This shows that the murderer has severe negative emotions and an unstable mental state, which is completely different from Yun Duoer's profile."
"No," Zhao Yu said, "Killing 13 people and getting away every time, this person must have some tricks up his sleeve!
"I have to go and check it out to see if there is really something fishy in it!"
While she was talking, Miao Ying's cell phone rang, and Zeng Ke called her:
"Team Miao, I just received news from the Forest Guard Station. They found an old cadre who retired from the Forestry Bureau from the capital of Xixia Province," Zeng Ke said excitedly. "That old cadre can prove that the hillside where the water well case is located Yes, a mountain temple did exist before!
“He was also able to confirm that the temple was destroyed by a flash flood in 1992.
"The trees on the hillside were all planted by him!"
"Okay," Zhao Yu clapped his hands and said, "I won't run away now! There was a flash flood in 1992, and the three deceased people in the mountain temple also disappeared in 1992! All right!
"Next, let me see who the murderer...is!"
