Chapter 344 Coincidence
"Okay! I'll come over! Did you call from that guesthouse?"
"Yes! The guesthouse where Shoucheng works."
Su Tong went out and got on the bus.
Forty minutes later, she saw Wu Dongling waiting anxiously at the door of the guesthouse.
Wu Dongling felt a little embarrassed when she saw her.
"Well, sorry to bother you. Please run for me."
Su Tong didn't have time to be polite with her and asked directly: "What did you find?"
"Ah! You, you follow me!"
Wu Dongling hurriedly led the way and entered the alley next to the guesthouse.
After twists and turns, they arrived at a low residential area, which was the area Su Tong had visited last time.
Wu Dongling led her to a yard where there was a row of bungalows with about five or six rooms.
She took out a bunch of keys and opened the door while saying:
"You asked me to think about it yesterday to see if there were any clues. I tried my best but couldn't think of anything, so I thought of looking in Shoucheng's room. Then, I found something he had written on the wall."
This is a simple bedroom with a bed, a table, a cabinet and a chair. There is a wooden shelf in the corner near the door with some kitchen utensils on it and a kerosene stove next to it.
Things were placed a little messily, but judging by the water stains on the floor, Wu Dongling must have just cleaned them up.
Wu Dongling pointed to the corner of the wall next to the bed and said:
"There, near the head of the bed, Shoucheng wrote down dates and names in pencil. There was a woman's name."
Su Tong took a look and saw small words densely written in pencil in the corner of the wall near the mattress. If you didn't look closely, you would think it was a stain.
Su Tong leaned over to identify it. Zhang Shoucheng's handwriting was crooked, but he could still recognize what was written...
“…”
"July 25, change sister"
"April 10, change sister"
"April 22, change sister"
"April 28, change sister"
“…”
Su Tong straightened up and asked Wu Dongling:
"Who is the changed sister?"
Wu Dongling shook her head, "No, I don't know! But it must be a woman! You asked me yesterday if Brother Shoucheng had any contact with any women? When I saw this name, I called you! I couldn't think of any clues, so I thought of you, you are smart! You will definitely find something!"
"Haven't you ever mentioned it when you heard them chatting?"
Wu Dongling shook her head and whispered:
"If they mention a woman's name, I'll definitely remember it!"
Su Tong looked around the room, which was obviously a bachelor's residence, and asked:
"You... don't live together?"
Wu Dongling lowered her head and said, "We haven't been together for long. He always comes to my place. He said that he would take me back to his hometown to have a wedding banquet and then rent a big house."
Su Tong suddenly thought of something, looked towards the corner, and asked:
"The date above should be based on the lunar calendar, right?"
Wu Dongling didn't know why she suddenly changed the subject. She looked up blankly, glanced at the corner of the wall, and nodded:
"Yes! We seldom keep track of the solar calendar, but the lunar calendar is more accurate."
Su Tong looked at Wu Dongling and said, "When did you and Zhang Shoucheng get together? Do you remember?"
"Just over a month before he was arrested."
"When was he caught?"
"On the fifth day of June last year, I remember it very clearly."
"You and Zhang Shoucheng confirmed your relationship around the first day of May last year."
"H-How do you know?"
Wu Dongling was a little surprised, and then her face suddenly turned red...
"That day was April 29th. He suddenly came to my place to see me... I remember it."
Su Tong pointed to the wall and said:
"Then we can be sure that this date is the time of the meeting. Gaimei is the woman Zhang Shoucheng had in mind before. They should have met at least three times last year. On April 28, something may have happened after the meeting with Gaimei, which made Zhang Shoucheng determined to live a good life with you."
Wu Dongling looked towards the corner of the wall and asked, "Is that so?"
Wu Dongling's tears suddenly flowed down, and she choked up and said:
"I really want to live a good life with him. I don't mind if he has someone else in his heart. I just hope he can get out alive!"
Su Tong looked at the numbers. The first date was written on the top, which was obviously from the year before last, July 25th.
They only met once the year before last.
Last year, they met three times, all in April.
More than a month after the third meeting, Zhang Shoucheng was arrested.
After thinking about it, Su Tong shook his head again.
He wrote the numbers on the wall, certainly not for record or commemoration.
Because there is not only the name of the girl on it, there are also several dates with the words director or team leader written behind them.
This kind of casual note-taking behavior should be more...
It’s for reminder.
It's a memo.
The girl named Gaimei made an appointment with him in advance, and he was afraid of forgetting, so he wrote it on the wall.
Su Tong looked around the room again and saw everything clearly. It was no wonder that Zhang Shoucheng wrote the date on the wall. It was impossible to find a piece of paper in the room.
After leaving Zhang Shoucheng's house, Wu Dongling accompanied her to the bus stop in front of the guesthouse.
He looked at her hesitantly.
Su Tong said: "This girl can only prove that there is such a woman in Zhang Shoucheng's social circle. At present, it seems that she can't help Zhang Shoucheng in any way."
"Then, then you asked me before if there were any women who had any dealings with her?"
Su Tong slowly shook his head and said, "I'm not sure yet whether this girl has anything to do with the case. I need evidence, I need to prove it..."
She looked at Wu Dongling and said, "Just stay here for now, don't run away, and don't have any other ideas. With your identity, you'll be a fugitive wherever you go! I'll try my best to find out about Zhang Shoucheng's matter, and I'll let you know if there's any news! When his matter is over, you can turn yourself in. You won't be sentenced to many years for your crime, and you're still young, so you can still be a good person when you get out!"
Wu Dongling's tears welled up again and she nodded repeatedly:
"I'm not running away! I'm not going anywhere! I'm just staying with Brother Shoucheng! If Brother Shoucheng really can't get out, I, I don't want to live anymore!"
Su Tong didn't say anything more and got on the bus.
Her mind is a little confused now.
Because of her first reaction when she saw those dates, she actually calculated when Lin Jiao became pregnant.
Zhang Shoucheng was arrested on June 5th, so Lin Jiao’s accident should have happened on June 3rd.
When she entered the hospital, she was weak and bleeding. It was probably because she had just had the abortion and had not yet fully recovered.
Under normal circumstances, it takes more than two months for an unmarried girl to find out she is pregnant. It also takes some time from the discovery to the decision to have an abortion. However, the operation must be completed in about three months, otherwise the pregnancy will start to show. In addition, this private operation is more dangerous if the pregnancy is advanced in term.
So, Lin Jiao became pregnant around February of the lunar calendar last year.
It happened that Gaimei visited Zhang Shoucheng three times frequently in April.
At that time, Lin Jiao was more than two months pregnant, and she might have been feeling confused and helpless.
Is it a coincidence?
