Chapter 45 Tracking



The driver, Xiao Wang, couldn't stand this ridiculous atmosphere anymore, so he pulled Xie Wan out of the yard and said, "Xiao Wan, let's go back to the city.

Your father asked me to take care of you. We can't stay here any longer."

Xie Wan didn't hesitate and got in the car.

The moment the car drove away from Renjia Village, Xie Wan thought that she would probably never come back here again.

Shi Yu has been a little panicked these two days.

Zheng Hu found her and told her that he accidentally strangled Tao Hongmei to death.

"Dead? Where are the things?" Shi Yu was anxious.

Zheng Hu shook his head, "I didn't find it. That family is so poor, how could they have something like what you said?"

When Shi Yu heard that the jade ring was not found, he became even more anxious.

It’s a mess. Why are everything in this life so messed up?

Could it be that I really did something during my rebirth that disrupted the timeline?

Shi Yu didn't have time to sort out his thoughts for the time being.

She blamed him, “Since you killed someone, why did you come to the hospital to see me?

Go quickly and don’t let anyone see you.”

Zheng Hu was a little unhappy.

If he wasn't looking for something for Shi Yu, how could he have accidentally killed someone?

He said, "Shi Yu, I don't dare to go back these few days. Lend me some money. I'll hide outside for a few days and listen to the wind."

Shi Yu gave Zheng Hu all the ten yuan and five kilograms of food coupons he had and said, "These are all I have. You can leave now."

Zheng Hu took the money and the ticket and was about to leave when Shi Yu stopped him and asked, "Besides you, does anyone else know about this?"

In fact, there were two other people who went to Renjia Village with Zheng Hu.

But Zheng Hu was afraid that Shi Yu would worry, so he didn't say anything.

He shook his head and said, "Only I know."

Shi Yu felt a little relieved.

She believed that Zheng Hu would definitely not betray her.

Shi Yu got off work in a restless mood and ran to Xie's house to find out the news.

I learned that Xie Wan went back to Renjia Village to attend a funeral.

Tao Hongmei was indeed dead.

Shi Yu was very nervous.

She was a little conflicted. If she reported Zheng Hu, she could actually get rid of the murder.

But she could no longer hide the fact that she was looking for the jade ring.

No, she couldn't report Zheng Hu.

But if I don’t report Zheng Hu, if the police find out about Zheng Hu, will I be implicated if I knew about it but didn’t report it?

Moreover, Zheng Hu doesn't dare to go back to Zi County now. Without any source of income, he will definitely ask her for money.

She will be entangled by Zheng Hu, which is also a problem.

Shi Yu was restless for several days before he finally waited for Xie Wan to come back.

The Xie family was not surprised that she came to their house every day.

When Shi Yu first came to the city, he had lived in the Xie family before.

Xie's family thought that she had a conflict with someone in the hospital dormitory, which was why she ran to Xie's house every day.

Xie arrived late in the evening. All the Xie family members were at home, including Shi Yu.

When Xie Dahong saw Xie Wan, he wanted to go forward and help her with her luggage.

Xie Wan avoided it.

Xie Dahong patted Xie Wan on the shoulder and said, "Xiao Wan, although your mother is gone, you still have a father."

Xie Wan suddenly felt a sour feeling in his heart.

She thought that if the original owner heard these words, she would definitely be deeply moved.

Unfortunately she can't.

As the saying goes, belated love is cheaper than grass. If it weren’t for the neglect of this biological father, the original owner would not have died.

"Dad, I'm tired and want to go upstairs to rest."

Xie Wan went upstairs and returned to his room.

As soon as Xie Wan returned home, he discovered that his room had been tampered with.

This doesn't look like it was done by Aunt Zhou while cleaning.

Aunt Zhou wouldn't rummage through her cupboard.

Someone knocks on the door.

When I opened the door, it was Shi Yu standing outside with a cup of malted milk.

"Xiao Wan, you've worked hard. You must have missed dinner, so I made you a cup of malted milk."

This time, Shi Yu did not pour the malted milk on Xie Wan, but placed it steadily on the table.

Xie Wan picked up the malted milk and drank it.

She was sure that now that she was at the Xie family, Shi Yu would not dare to poison her or anything like that.

I have to say, the malted milk of this era tastes quite delicious.

It tastes similar to the Lekoufu that Xie Wan drank in later generations.

After a few pleasantries, Shi Yu picked an opportunity to ask Xie Wan:

"Xiao Wan, have you found the murderer who killed your mother?"

Xie Wan looked up and looked directly into Shi Yu's eyes and asked, "Sister Shi, I didn't say just now that my mother was murdered."

Shi Yu's nervous expression flashed across his face, and he hesitated, "Didn't you say that? Then I must have heard it from my uncle."

It was the public security department in An County who notified Xie Dahong, so what Xie Dahong said made sense.

"Hasn't been caught yet." Xie Wan said calmly.

In fact, the An County Public Security Bureau had already arrested Ren Tiezhu, and people outside regarded Ren Tiezhu as the suspect in the murder of Tao Hongmei.

But Xie Wan didn't plan to tell Shi Yu.

In this era without the Internet, news transmission is slow.

If the murderer doesn't know that someone has taken the blame, he might be exposed.

As expected, when Shi Yu heard that the murderer had not been caught yet, his face turned pale and he asked again: "Don't you have any clues at all?"

Xie Wan deliberately lowered his head and pretended to recall the past: "I heard from the villagers that on the day my mother was murdered, it seemed that a stranger came to the village."

Shi Yu grabbed Xie Wan's arm and asked, "What kind of outsider?"

Xie Wan said according to the information Haozi told her: "He seems to be quite young... Oh, by the way, he is bald."

Shi Yu was stunned, because Zheng Hu was a bald man.

Xie Wan had been observing Shi Yu's expression, and now she was certain that Shi Yu must be related to Tao Hongmei's death.

Shi Yu actually colluded with others to kill her mother?
