After all, he was a person who had been practicing Buddhism for decades. After Hu Chengyi came to the serious crime team, he was not as nervous and nervous as many old people who came into contact with the criminal police for the first time, and his eyebrows were very indifferent.

Xiao Yuan invited him to the lounge, made a pot of tea, and asked about the details that Mingshu had neglected in his haste. Ji Kuichen said a few more words when he had rescued the young boy, "The child is very pitiful, he fell off the cliff and almost lost his life. Kuichen knows some medical skills, but he can't cure such a serious injury. I can take the child to the hospital in the town, but that child is actually a 'black family'."

"'Heihu'?" Xiao Yuan asked, "How old is the child? What year did he fall off the cliff?"

Hu Chengyi thought for a while, "It's about 16 years old, which year... 20 years ago, or 21 years ago, I really can't remember."

Qin Xiong's missing younger brother, Qin Ying, disappeared 21 years ago in the year Qin Ke was born.

16 years old, "black household", these two points are also correct.

Xiao Yu'an asked again, "What's the reason for falling off the cliff?"

Hu Chengyi said, "I guess someone pushed him down."

"Guess?" Xiao Yuan said, "He didn't tell you clearly?"

"He didn't say it." Hu Chengyi sighed, "We are most familiar with the cliff, and no one will walk up to it. I went to see it, there are many stampede marks nearby, it doesn't look like one person stepped on it. He fell under the cliff, and no one was angry at that time, so why did he lie there for more than a day during that battle?"

Xiao Yuan said, "What's his name? Didn't he stay in Haijing Temple anymore?"

"There is 'Ying' in his name, the hero's 'Ying'." Hu Chengyi said: "As for the surname, he doesn't want to say it, and we didn't force him to say it."

Ying, Qin Ying

You don't want to say your surname, because you're disheartened and want to cut off your relationship with the Qin family

Because the one who pushed him off the cliff was Qin Xiong

Xiao Yuan thought for a while, and then said, "How did he deal with the fact that he was a 'black household'?"

"I didn't do much," said Hu Chengyi. "As soon as the hospital saw that we were monks, it gave the green light to let the child stay in the hospital. I think, he stayed in the hospital for two months, and he would come with us after he was discharged from the hospital. Life."

Xiao Yu'an said, "Didn't you go to the police station to register?"

Hu Chengyi smiled bitterly, "In those days, we didn't register. He is a child, so what kind of registration is he?"

"How long did he stay in Haijing Temple?" Xiao Yuan asked, "Did anything happen during that time?"

Hu Chengyi said, "What do you mean?"

"For example, he went down the mountain to find someone, or someone came up the mountain to find him."

"He didn't go down the mountain, but I remember that outsiders did come."

Xiao Yu'an said, "Who is it?"

"I don't know who it is." Hu Chengyi shook his head, "At that time, very few people came to the mountain, and there were almost no pilgrims. Occasionally, monks from other temples came to beg for alms, and that person was not a pilgrim, a monk, or a monk. , came and asked if we had ever seen a boy around 16, so I remember him."

If Qin Ying was pushed off the cliff by Qin Xiong, then the odd visitor is probably Qin Xiong.

Xiao Yu'an asked, "How do you answer?"

Hu Chengyi smiled, "The child told Kuichen early on that anyone who came to look for him would say he didn't know or had never seen him. In fact, he was superfluous, even if he didn't explain it, Kuichen wouldn't tell him. The existence of the monastery informed the suspicious person. Jingchen asked him if he would like to stay in the temple to practice Buddhism, but he did not agree. After his body fully recovered, he left."

Xiao Yu'an said, "Roughly when?"

"After more than half a year." Hu Chengyi said, "I never saw him again, and Jian Chen never mentioned him again."

Xiao Yuan asked, "Do you still remember what he looked like?"

Hu Chengyi closed his eyes, recalled for a long time, and regretted: "I can't remember."

Xiao Yuan retrieved the photo that Qin Ke had hidden in the frame from his mobile phone—this is also the only photo of Qin Ying currently in the possession of the police.

Handing the photo to Hu Chengyi, Xiao Yuan said, "Is it him?"

Hu Chengyi took the phone and looked at it for a long time, "Like, the more you look, the more you look like."

Xiao Yu'an recalled the photos of Qin Xiong when he was young, "What about this one? Do you have an impression?"

Hu Chengyi looked at it longer this time, "I seem to have seen it somewhere, but I can't remember where it was."

Xiao Yu'an said: "Think about it again, doesn't it look like the guy who went up the mountain and asked you, 'Have you seen a 16-year-old boy'?"

Hu Chengyi's slack eyelids suddenly stretched, and after a while he said, "I'm sorry, my brain is useless."

"It's alright." Xiao Yuan put away the photo, did not force Hu Chengyi, but smiled gently, "You have provided us with very important clues."

"Really?" Hu Chengyi sighed softly, nodded and said, "That's good, that's good."

After seeing Hu Chengyi away, Xiao Yujing stood in front of the window.

In all likelihood, the 16-year-old described by Hu Chengyi is Qin Ying.

It turned out that Qin Ying's so-called "disappearance" was pushed off the cliff of Qiyue Mountain.

Hu Chengyi can't remember the appearance of the person who went up the mountain to look for Qin Ying. This is normal, it's just one aspect. If Hu Chengyi can still look at Qin Xiong's photo in 20 years and say "yes, it's him", then there will be problem.

The truth is gradually emerging from fragmented clues—

21 years ago, Huang Hui was pregnant, and the bottom family had more porridge and less porridge, and one more person would have more mouths. Qin Xiong endured Qin Ying, an inexplicable younger brother for many years, and finally became malicious when his child was about to be born. He can allow Qin Ying to rob what belongs to him, but he cannot allow Qin Ying to rob his wife and children.

Qin Ying is still young and underage, and has no defense against her family. Qin Xiong, for some reason—for example, climbing with his brother, for example, accompanying his brother to a temple in the mountain to pray for the unborn child—deceived Qin Ying to Qiyue Mountain, and then, seeing the opportunity, revealed his fierceness, and pushed Qin Ying off the cliff.

There was no movement under the cliff for a long time. In Qin Xiong's opinion, Qin Ying either broke his neck and died on the spot, or was seriously injured and could not save himself.

He chose this mountain because it was almost uninhabited, and there was only a monastery halfway up the mountain.

The mountain is so big that those monks would not patrol the mountain, and it would not be such a coincidence that they found Qin Ying under the cliff.

Without anyone finding out, Qin Ying wouldn't survive even if she didn't die immediately.

Qin Xiong may have considered going down to the bottom of the cliff to see in person. If Qin Ying is already dead, it would be better. If Qin Ying still has a breath, he has other ways to kill Qin Ying, and then put Qin Ying on the spot. Buried to avoid future troubles.

But he dared not.

That is a living person.

It was a last resort to get rid of Qin Ying. For the sake of his little family and the child to be born, he wanted Qin Ying to die immediately, but he didn't dare to look at Qin Ying's body.

So, after wandering for a long time, Qin Xiong chose to leave.

Qin Ying disappeared, and the Qin family was bleak.

Qin Anqiang and Bai Hong probably knew that the disappearance of the younger son was caused by the eldest son, so they did not dare to call the police or even ask their neighbors to help them find it.

Qin Xiong later returned to Qiyue Mountain, indicating that he was still worried that Qin Ying was not dead.

And Qin Ying did survive.

Qin Ying left Haijing Temple more than half a year after she was rescued. Judging by the fact that she was about 16 years old then, she should be 37 years old now.

Hu Chengying didn't know where Qin Ying went after going down the mountain, but what was certain was that Qin Ying never returned to Haijing Temple.

Was it Qin Ying who returned from somewhere and killed everyone in the Qin family except Qin Xu

Han Province, Mingming County.

Ming Shu slammed the car door and looked up at the low commodity building in front of him.

Mingming County is under the jurisdiction of Luocheng, and it is far away from Mu Haiyuan's hometown, Fucheng. After careful visits, the serious crime team finally determined that Li Feihe, the nanny who had worked in the Mu family for seven years, now lives in Mingliang County.

The commercial houses in the small county are all built low, and there is no elevator inside. Mingshu took the stairs and knocked on the door of 4-1.

It was a little boy who opened the door, raised his head curiously: "Uncle, who are you looking for?"

An old woman in her 60s came out of the kitchen, wiped her hands on her apron, and said vigilantly, "Weiwei, why do you open the door for people casually?"

Mingshu showed his credentials directly, "Are you Li Feihe?"

The old woman was surprised at first, and then panicked: "Did something happen to Xiaocheng?"

Mingshu shook his head: "It has nothing to do with your son. I came to you to find out about Mu Haiyuan's family."

Li Feihe's eyes widened, and after a while, he said, "It's okay if something happened to Xiaocheng, then come in."

After entering the house, Mingshu looked around. The location and decoration of this house are not bad for Mingming County. Li Feihe should be living a good life now.

Li Feihe was a little embarrassed, "I haven't worked in Mu's family for a long time, and I'm not very clear about their family's affairs."

Mingshu said: "You don't have to be nervous. I will ask you a few questions. How much do you know? Answer the truth."

Li Feihe nodded.

Mingshu asked, "Did Mou Haiyuan hire you to take care of his parents?"

Li Feihe said: "Yes. My sons and daughters were working in Fucheng at the time. I had nothing to do, so I hung up with the housekeeping company to find work. Mr. Mu asked me to work at his house because of my quickness and good reputation."

Mingshu asked, "Has he asked you anything?"

"Request?" Li Feihe thought for a while, "That is, being careful and patient with the old man."

"Mu Haiyuan never visits his parents?"

"This… "

Mingshu lightly tapped his index finger on the table, a small movement, but implied power.

Li Feihe hesitated: "Mr. Mu actually..."

Mingshu looked into Li Feihe's eyes and said slowly: "You took care of Mu Qinzhi and He Yinghua for seven years, and got along with each other day and night. Whether this family is a real family or not, you have already figured it out in your heart, right?"

Li Feihe's face changed slightly, and he nodded after half a minute.

"You have a pair of children, and your grandson is yours. Your children will never stop visiting you for a long time." Mingshu said, "This is the way of getting along in a normal family, but the Mu family, Mu Qinzhi and He Yinghua are with you. It's the same, not like Mu Haiyuan's parents, but more like they were hired by Mu Haiyuan, right?"

After a long silence, Li Feihe sighed, "They, they are indeed not Mr. Mu's parents. But I don't know what to say about this."

Mingshu didn't urge, and waited for Li Feihe's next words.

"I just felt something was wrong at first, and I didn't think about it." Li Feihe clutched at his apron tightly, "Before I went to work at Mu's house, I also worked in other families. Back then, those who could afford a nanny, The family is quite rich, similar to the Mu family. But no matter how rich the family is, the family is happy. At least parents will not be afraid of their children. The Mu family... I have never seen Mr. Mu come back a few times. He Yinghua and He Yinghua are very restrained, like the one who comes back is not the son, but the master. And they are very different from the old people in the rich families I have contacted before. They don’t communicate with neighbors, hardly go out, and have no culture.”

"Later, I stayed at Mu's house for a long time, and I became more and more familiar with He Yinghua. I often chatted with her. She treated me as her own, so she told me one thing." Li Feihe swallowed, "she said, She and Mou Qinzhi are not Mr. Mou's parents at all."

Mingshu asked: "Then do you know their true identities?"

Li Feihe said: "I know, they are from a small city in the south. They live in the countryside. They signed an agreement with Mr. Mou to play the role of parents for Mr. Mou."

"How did Mu Haiyuan find them?" Mingshu asked, "Where are Mu Haiyuan's own parents?"

Li Feihe shook his head, "I don't know about this. Mu Qinzhi rarely speaks, and every time He Yinghua finished chatting with me, he always told me not to tell others. After they passed away, this matter rotted in my heart. , I haven't talked to anyone, and if you're not a police officer, I won't tell you."

Mingshu asked again, "What are the real names of Mou Qinzhi and He Yinghua?"

"That's their real name," Li Feihe said.

Mingshu said, "Which small city is the small city in the south you mentioned just now?"

"I can't remember it for a while." Li Feihe pressed his forehead, "Liang, what is Liang..."

Ming Shu said, "Liang Xi Town?"

"Yes, yes, it's Liangxi Town." Li Feihe said, "But it's not the town, it's the countryside below."

Liangxi Town is the hometown of Yin Xiaofeng. Six years ago, Kuichen brought Yin Xiaofeng with him when he returned from "Yunyou". At that time, Kuichen was probably no longer a real Kuichen, but Mu Haiyuan.

And Mou Haiyuan's fake parents are also from Liangxi Town.

"Mr. Mu is very generous. Although he doesn't live with his biological parents, he treats them well enough, at least he has never treated them materially." Li Feihe continued, "The salary offered to me is also high. After the death of Mou Qinzhi and He Yinghua, I lost my job. He gave me a sum of money to let me go back to my hometown to live in peace. You see, if it wasn't for Mr. Mou, I wouldn't be able to afford such a nice house. "

"Wait a minute." Mingshu said, "Mu Qinzhi and He Yinghua really died of natural illness?"

"You suspect that Mr. Mu killed them? How could it be possible." Li Feihe shook his head, "I'm really sick, I take care of them, can I still not know? People are old, and everything goes wrong. It's not Mr. Mu's fault. …”

Leaving from Li Feihe's house, Mingshu sat in the car and played with cigarette cases.

There were still a few cigarettes in the box, but he didn't smoke them.

Mu Haiyuan's filial parents in front of outsiders are not his real parents. To create a high-quality image of himself, the best strategy for Mou Haiyuan is to bring his biological parents to his side. He did not do this. There are only two possibilities. One is that his biological parents are long gone , The second is that for some reason, he cannot bring his biological parents to live with him.

Mou Haiyuan also insisted that he was the only son when he created the "personality" of the dutiful son.

The fact is that the Master Jingchen in Haijing Temple is probably his twin brother.

Ming Shu took the cigarette case apart and crushed the cigarettes one by one after a while.

Even though he came into contact with a lot of psychologically distorted suspects, Mingshu still couldn't grasp Mu Haiyuan's mentality. Hiring a pair of fake parents can be understood as a career need, but after retiring and living a prosperous life, why go to Haijing Temple to "replace" your brother

Furthermore, Mu Haiyuan always knew that the abbot of Haijing Temple was his brother

In Hu Chengyi's eyes, Kuichen seven years ago represented compassion, while the returned Kuichen was gloomy and elusive. This is the difference between the real Kuichen and Mu Haiyuan.

The phone vibrated, Mingshu picked it up and saw that it was Yi Fei.

Everyone in the serious crime team divides and cooperates, and Yi Fei leads the team to investigate Mu Haiyuan's interpersonal relationship in the film circle.

"I found something." Yi Fei said, "When will you be back?"

Mingshu said: "Just say it on the phone, save time, I can still think about it on the way."

"Okay." Yi Fei said, "Your childhood idol is far less noble than the character portrayed on the screen."

Mingshu originally wanted to refute "Mu Haiyuan was not my childhood idol", but at this time he had no thoughts and leaned back in his chair to listen to Yi Fei.

Before stepping into the film industry, Mou Haiyuan was a student of a martial arts school in Han Province. Now, this school no longer exists.

Chen Shaoxing was the first person Mou Haiyuan knew in the circle. This person also came from a martial arts school and was not as popular as Mou Haiyuan in the film circle.

Benefited from martial arts practice at a young age, Old Man Chen is now physically strong and spirited. After seeing Yi Fei, he is eager to have two moves with Yi Fei.

According to him, when Mu Haiyuan was still in the martial arts school, he had said many times that in the future, as long as he made his own way, he must let his parents live a good life.

This point is consistent with Mu Haiyuan's later words and deeds.

But Chen Shaoxing remembered that Mu Haiyuan was extremely depressed for a while. When he asked the reason, Mu Haiyuan almost collapsed and said that his father had passed away.

Yi Fei repeatedly confirmed to Chen Shaoxing, "Mu Haiyuan really said that?"

"I said it." Chen Shaoxing said: "So I thought it was strange that he appeared in public with his parents. But at that time, Mu Haiyuan and I were already estranged. I can only guess that his father, maybe Someone whose mother later remarried."

In Chen Shaoxing's memory, Mou Haiyuan, before he became famous, was often anxious, and the reason for his anxiety almost came from his delay in giving his parents a stable living environment.

The information Yi Fei got from Chen Shaoxing boiled down to the fact that Mu Haiyuan was a really filial son.

But after Mou Haiyuan became famous, those in the circle who knew the "insider" did not rate him so highly.

"Mu Haiyuan has serious violent tendencies." An employee of a brokerage company who once worked for Mou Haiyuan said that whether Mou Haiyuan was acting as an actor, or when he was a martial arts instructor or director, he always used the act of violence. However, before the media industry did not As developed as it is now, the actors who have been beaten are also "soft persimmons", so such incidents have never been exposed.

In addition to resorting to violence, Mou Haiyuan sometimes beats people in his team.

The employee showed an old scar on his back, saying that it was caused by Mou Haiyuan, who paid for the medical expenses and the so-called "sealing fee".

"I didn't spread rumors. You can ask a few more people to know that Mu Haiyuan is a scumbag. I heard that he has been missing for many years, maybe he was killed by his enemies."

Yi Fei also found many people who served Mou Haiyuan back then, and their opinions were similar. One of them even revealed that Mou Haiyuan had the habit of bullying men and women.

"Xiao Lan'er, the beautiful girl in the previous generation of actors, you young people may not have heard of her. She was insulted by Mu Haiyuan."

Xiao Laner has passed away, but her husband Lin Yi is still alive.

Hearing the name "Mu Haiyuan", Lin Yi was silent for a long time. He has grown old, and his eyes are cloudy that old people often have.

But Yi Fei saw anger, unwillingness, and remorse in those cloudy eyes.

"I should have killed him back then." Lin Yi murmured, "I made Laner wronged."

The film industry in the past may not be much cleaner than the current entertainment industry. Lin Yi is also an actor, but he is a little-known actor. When Xiao Laner married Lin Yi, the newspaper said "marry", and at that time , Xiao Laner and Mou Haiyuan have worked together in two films.

Lin Yi didn't clearly tell Yi Fei that my wife was indeed defiled by Mu Haiyuan, but he talked a lot about Xiao Lan'er, and finally said to himself, "Lan'er is not the only victim."

Yi Fei asked: "Mu Haiyuan also bullied other actresses?"

Lin Yi stopped answering.

"Having violent tendencies, and taking action to force actresses, Mu Haiyuan's black material is more than that." Yi Fei continued: "But the latter point, in their circle, is actually not a black material."

Mingshu said: "Don't sell off."

"Grab resources from competitors." Yi Fei said, "In the past, there were many martial arts actors, just like our era, there were surprisingly many 'little fresh meat', and it was not so easy to get ahead. In his early years, Mu Haiyuan made a lot of efforts to win resources. means."

Mingshu suddenly thought of something, "How about those who lost to Mu Haiyuan in the competition?"

"I haven't had time to check them one by one." Yi Fei said, "But in any industry, especially in the competition at the bottom, the losers are miserable."

After hanging up the phone, Mingshu leaned on the steering wheel and gradually grasped the key.

The monks in Haijing Temple temporarily put aside Hu Chengyi, Liu Sui, and Tang Yuan, who had been ordained long ago, and only looked at Yin Xiaofeng, Chang Qingying, Chu Jiang, Wang Lu, Chu Xin, and Fang Pingxu who entered the temple later.

Yin Xiaofeng and Fang Pingxu are psychologically distorted and have serious violent tendencies.

Chang Qingying used insidious tricks in the workplace, which indirectly led to the death of her colleagues.

Chu Jiang took the lead in underestimating the widow, which indirectly caused the widow to commit suicide.

Wang Lu was idle, didn't know how to honor his parents, and was angry with his father.

As for Chu Xin, it was probably an accident that this person came to Haijing Temple.

Except for Chu Xin, the characteristics of the above five people can be found in Mu Haiyuan. The more far-fetched is Wang Lu, but how Mu Haiyuan's biological parents died is still unknown. If they died because of Mu Haiyuan, then this It's not far-fetched.

Mu Haiyuan disappeared, in order to gather these people who share his sins with him, and then wipe them out one by one

What's this

Is it another form of "redemption"
