Tan Yi walked aside and answered the phone.

"Captain Tan, this is Fu Da. The blood test proved that it was human blood. The county office decided to detain Ma Hongliang for 48 hours. We will rush over with the search warrant."

"Okay, we will try our best to keep an eye on Ma Hongliang's family."

"Captain Tan, be careful and don't confront them head-on."

"Okay."

After hanging up the phone, Tan Yi returned to the gate and sat down again.

Aunt Ge was a little timid: "Captain, was it really Ma Laosan who killed Ge Qin? What if it wasn't them?"

Tan Yi said: "Don't worry, Auntie, we will investigate it thoroughly. If they didn't do it, we won't accuse them wrongly. If they did it, we will never let them go. Just tell the truth."

"That's right." Ma Hongda also said, "Look at me, sister-in-law. A lot of people said that I killed Ge Qin, and my house was searched thoroughly by the police. But what was the result? Nothing happened. I didn't do such a wicked thing!"

"That's right." Aunt Ge said softly.

Tan Yi asked, "Auntie, where are Ma Hongliang's two daughters-in-law, and where are the children?"

Auntie Ge said, "They took the children back to her parents' home a few days ago, and they haven't come back."

"How is the relationship between their family?"

"It was fine before, but it's become uneasy since those gossips. Xiaowen and Ma Laosan quarrel all the time, and sometimes even fight."

"What kind of gossip is that?"

"Ah... actually nothing."

Auntie Ge swallowed back what she was about to say when she saw that Tan Yi didn't know about Ma Hongliang's gossip.

Ma Hongda said, "Second sister-in-law, don't hide it. The captain didn't come last time, so he doesn't know, but that pretty policewoman and...the policeman who walked over with something know it. They are police officers, and you have to tell the truth when they ask you."

Deng Wenxiang came with an investigation box, greeted Tan Yi, sat down next to him, and shook his head slightly.

Tan Yi understood that he had no other gains in the shed.

Aunt Ge then answered Tan Yi's question directly, "Everyone says that Ma Laosan and the eldest daughter-in-law have an improper relationship, but in fact, there is no such thing."

Ma Hongda looked around and whispered, "How can there be no such thing? Who doesn't know that Ma Hongliang treats the eldest daughter-in-law better than his daughter-in-law and the second daughter-in-law? That guy is so nice, he buys whatever you want, and I heard that he even buys clothes for you."

"I think it was these gossips that killed Ge Qin." Aunt Ge glanced at Ma Hongda in dissatisfaction. "Ma Laosan is indeed a bit problematic. He can't move when he sees a pretty woman, but he's not that shameless. His eldest daughter-in-law is pretty and sweet-mouthed, but she's not very restrained. She even told her father-in-law about her past, which made people laugh at her. The story got more and more outrageous. If this was true, Xiaowen would have left the family long ago. Why did he have to endure it until now?"

Ma Hongda said, "That's true, but what ability does Ma Shangwen have? Can he have a good life without relying on his father? In my opinion, the couple is just shameless. One pretends to be deaf and dumb, and the other deliberately seduces the old man to get benefits."

"Pa!" Aunt Ge patted him on the shoulder, "What nonsense! I heard that Ge Qin said this to someone at the market before she died."

Tan Yi asked, "Where is the market? Did Ma Shangwen go to the market that day? Where did Ge Qin say those words?"

Aunt Ge said, "The market is in Siling Village, not far from the road. I don't know whether Xiaowen went there or not, but Ge Qin was chatting with someone at the clothing stall. Everyone knows about it."

"Why does everyone know it?"

"After that conversation, she disappeared. We all thought about it when we were together."

"Since you thought about it, did you tell the police at that time?"

"I don't know. It's been more than a month since I found out about this. And, they're not just talking about Ma Laosan's family. They're talking about the gossip of the villages. Oh... you have to be careful with your words."

Ma Hongda laughed awkwardly. "Yes, the second sister-in-law is right."

Tan Yi thought that the reason why Ma Hongliang's family dared to deny it was because Ma Shangwen didn't show up much at the market.

Although the market is large, there are many acquaintances. Ma Shangwen is the son of the village chief, and many people know him. Even if he didn't buy anything at the time, there were witnesses who saw him rushing to the market.

In addition, they sent their daughter-in-law and grandson away early, and it is estimated that the daughter-in-law knows something.

Tan Yi said, "Auntie is right. If everyone can be careful with their words and actions, the relationship between people will be much more harmonious."

Tan Yi's conversation went smoothly, but Xie Qing's was different.

Ma Shangwen didn't say anything, but his mother kept chattering.

"You look pretty, but why are you still a follower?"

"What's the point of following? You can do something else with your time. You already have a child."

"Still following, still following, what about your mother?"

...

Ma Hongliang's wife had a bitter face. At first glance, she was a woman who had been bullied by Ma Hongliang for many years.

There must be something hateful about pitiful people, and vice versa - there must be something pitiful about hateful people.

Xie Qing ignored her and looked at the spring flowers and the distant mountains. It was much more comfortable than sitting in the office.

The mother and son turned into a ditch, went up the hillside, and began to weed the weeds.

Xie Qing found a big rock to sit on. She brought a camera in her bag and took a distant photo of the mother and son - the fruit trees were in full bloom, and the farmers were working hard. The artistic conception was quite good. If someone was arrested, it would be a reminder in the future. It was a good deed.

In this way, after waiting for about forty minutes, a sharp siren sounded on the road.

Ma Shangwen's hoe fell to the ground, and the hoe handle hit the stone at the edge of the ground with a "bang".

He looked at Xie Qing in fear.

Xie Qing was also looking at him, smiling and waving with the grilled fish in her hand, "The police from Wuling County are here, come with me, and after the questioning, you can go home if everything is fine."

Ma Hongliang's wife said angrily, "What the hell, we don't know anything, there's nothing to say."

"If there's nothing to say, you don't have to say it, it doesn't matter." Xie Qing took out a mobile phone from her bag, "You don't have to go down, I can ask the police to come up and take your statements."

Either run, or wait, or go down, there is no fourth option.

Xie Qing stared at Ma Shangwen.

Ma Shangwen sat down on the ground, holding his head in despair.

His mother sat down beside him and whispered something.

Ma Shangwen shook his head and wiped his eyes with his sleeve.

Xie Qing thought that if it were her, and she had come to this point, turning around and running, or killing her and then running away, might be the most correct approach.

After all, even if Ma Hongliang was willing to take the blame, he might not be able to take the blame - this was an unknown, and if you were sure you didn't want to die, you couldn't take the risk.

However, there was another problem here, that is, Ma Shangwen was not her, and her fighting power was not up to par, so even if she escaped, she was doomed to fail.

But generally speaking, criminals always have a sense of luck when committing crimes.

Ma Shangwen probably thought that since he couldn't find it two years ago, he still couldn't find it now, and Ma Hongliang was willing to take the blame for him, so everything was arranged perfectly.

After a while, Ma Shangwen stood up and dragged the hoe down the mountain.

His mother chased after him.

Xie Qing followed with her bag on her back.

When they returned to Ma Hongliang's house, there was a minibus and two Santanas parked outside.

The police were conducting a thorough search of the Ma family.

Tan Yi and Deng Wenxiang stood in the yard waiting.

Xie Qing walked up to Tan Yi and asked, "Captain Tan, have you gone to look for the two daughters-in-law of the Ma family?"

Tan Yi said, "Captain Chang sent someone, but they haven't returned yet."

Xie Qing nodded and said, "The evidence is still insufficient. Has Captain Tan thought of a solution?"

Li Ji smiled and said, "Captain Tan has thought of a solution. Little Xie, guess what it is?"

Xie Qing looked at Tan Yi.

Tan Yi raised the corners of his lips, "You guess."

Deng Wenxiang said, "Yes, yes, Xiao Xie is also from Peking University, he can't let him down."

Xie Qing thought for a moment, "Could it be a bounty to find the whereabouts of the Ma father and son in this area on the day Ge Qin had the accident?"

"Pa!" Li Ji clapped his hands, "Our Xiao Xie is awesome!"

Deng Wenxiang also nodded, "It's really not simple to graduate from Peking University. Captain Tan is also an old criminal policeman. It's not surprising that he thought of a bounty, but Xiao Xie was able to think of it so quickly, he really lives up to his reputation."

Tan Yi smiled and said, "Let's go, we'll wait outside."

The few of them went out the door and were about to chat when they saw a woman in her thirties eating melon seeds coming in.

She stood three meters away, her big eyes rolling around, looking at several people one by one, and finally asked Tan Yi: "I heard that those who provide information will be rewarded with 200 yuan? Is it true?"

Tan Yi said indifferently: "Yes, those who provide false information will be rewarded with prison food, anyway, it's not a loss."

The woman blinked her eyes, spit, turned and left.

Li Ji said: "Why are there such people everywhere, as long as they can take advantage, they want to get involved."

Tan Yi said: "Human nature is to pursue profit, and our bounty is also taking advantage of this."

Li Ji said, "That's true, but a gentleman loves money and gets it in a proper way. It's a shame to talk nonsense for money." After

a woman left, an old man came again. This time, Li Ji persuaded him to leave by stealing Tan Yi's words.

It's not that Tan Yi's words are effective, but there aren't that many fools. They will understand after a little reminder.

About half an hour later, they received a serious report.

This person is Qian Zhuang, 42 years old, and his home is at the east end of Majia Village.

Fu Da warned, "If you give false testimony for money, you will go to jail. It's not worth it for 200 yuan, you know?"

Qian Zhuang said, "I'm a businessman. I've been selling New Year's goods at the market for more than ten years. 200 yuan is nothing to me. I came here because I don't want to be in the same village with a murderer. It's not safe."

Fu Da said, "Okay, tell me, what clues can you provide?"

Qian Zhuang said, "Ma Shangwen rushed to the market that day. He wanted to buy sugar from my family and asked the price. I said 3.5 yuan per catty. He looked up at me, put it down and left."

Fu Da gestured on his head, "Did he wrap it tightly?"

Qian Zhuang said, "I don't know. I don't remember, but he was right anyway. I have no grudge against him, and I won't wrongly accuse him for two hundred yuan. He didn't buy my candy because, at that time, gossip about his father and his wife was spreading in the village, and he was embarrassed to talk to his acquaintances. "

Fu Da asked again: "What time was it at that time? Can anyone prove that you are telling the truth?"

Qian Zhuang said: "The big market usually ends at 2:30 in the afternoon, so it should be in the afternoon. I don't remember what time it was. Next to my stall was a big sister from Siling Village selling small biscuits, and we talked about it for a long time."

Tan Yi gave the money, thanked Qian Zhuang, and waited for more than half an hour. Another young man of about seventeen or eighteen came.

Li Ji explained the pros and cons to him again.

The young man said, "I definitely saw him. I was at my grandmother's house at that time. When he came out of Siling Village, I just came out of the toilet. My grandmother was cooking at that time, and it was around four o'clock."

Fu Da said, "Why didn't you tell me at that time?"

The young man said, "I was still young at that time. I heard that someone was missing, but I didn't think about him at all. I just remembered it after hearing something recently."

...

The charm of money is still very strong. After the news was spread, seven or eight people came to find him one after another.

They can all confirm that Ma Shangwu went to the market and went to Siling Village on the day Ge Qin disappeared.

Although it cost more than a thousand yuan, it completely exposed the lie jointly told by the Ma family.

Through ideological work on Ma Shangwen's father-in-law, he admitted that Ma Shangwen did leave Siling Village at around 4 o'clock that day.

But they didn't know the rumors about his daughter, so they didn't suspect Ma Shangwen at all. It wasn't

until their daughter came back a few days ago and asked them to keep silent about the real situation of Ma Shangwen in Siling Village that day that they roughly guessed the truth.
