Chapter 146 Doll
◎Yun Dehou knew that he was finished◎
The next day, the personal restraining order was approved.
With this injunction, Zhu Feipeng could justifiably punch Yun Dehou who was trying to get closer: "Get away!"
Yun Dehou felt something was wrong.
When the neighbors called the police at first, he was not worried at all. Even if the police came to his house and took him to the police station, he was still not afraid. Who would care about such family conflicts these days? He didn't beat or scold the child, he just locked him up in a small dark room. Can he be put in jail?
But now, something is clearly wrong.
First, she met Lei Ling in the hospital. Lei Ling, Xie Lin's first love, seemed to want to eat her up.
Then Lei Ling invited Zhao Xiangwan, a psychological expert from outside the city, who was determined to kick him out of the ward.
Then... a personal restraining order completely separated him from his daughter.
During these two days, Yun Dehou felt as if a cat's paw was scratching his heart. He felt extremely uncomfortable and was thinking about things all day long.
I wondered if my daughter had revealed something. Then I thought, it’s impossible, my daughter is so timid, she has always been under my control and dared not say anything.
Yun Dehou finally thought about it and slowly settled down, and he returned to work. Even if his daughter said something, so what? Child abuse? There was no evidence at all. As for the incident with Xie Lin, six years had passed, and any evidence would have disappeared in the long river of time. What was there to be afraid of!
On the other side, in the children's hospital.
Xie Yu and Xie's parents finally arrived.
I was exhausted and went straight to the hospital after getting off the train without even putting down my luggage.
Xie Yu is tall and strong. In such a cold weather, she only wore a thin sweater and jacket, looking very tough.
Xie Kangshi, the father of the family, and Liu Cuifang, the mother of the family, are both in their sixties, with gray hair and wrinkled faces. They were sleepless all night because of self-blame and worry, recalling their daughter's past and feeling heartbroken. In addition, they were exhausted from the long journey, which made the two elderly people hunched over. When they finally arrived at the hospital ward, their legs were shaking and they could hardly stand.
Seeing Yun Jie sitting obediently beside the bed, Xie Kangshi and Liu Cuifang burst into tears and choked up as they called out, "Linlin..."
So similar!
That round little face looks exactly like the one my daughter Xie Lin had when she was in elementary school.
Zhao Xiangwan and Zhou Rulan brought chairs for the two old men to sit on. After they sat down, the old men took a long breath and finally felt the existence of their legs.
Under Zhao Xiangwan's guidance, Yun Jie is now more cheerful and no longer hides when seeing people like before.
She looks well-behaved, honest and obedient, and is especially liked by the elderly. Otherwise, she would not have received the help and care from the grandmother next door.
Seeing the two old men looking at him with tears in their eyes, Yun Jie said nothing. He just glanced at them timidly and smiled slightly.
Just such a faint smile made Liu Cuifang feel heartbroken. Her daughter was so innocent and cute when she was little. But because of her pride, she still didn't know whether she was dead or alive.
At this moment, Liu Cuifang regretted countless times. Why did she agree to marry Yun Dehou? Why did she refuse to meet her before she went abroad? Why didn't she take the letter seriously? If she cared more about her daughter and took more care of her, at least... Yun Dehou would be more cautious before harming her, right?
Xie Lin had been abroad for six years, and there had been no news since that letter. How could I be so careless? How could I really not care about her life or death just because I didn't want to be ashamed of Xie Lin's behavior of abandoning her husband and daughter?
Seeing Yun Jie now, Liu Cuifang's motherly heart was aroused, tears could not stop flowing down, and her voice trembled: "Jie Jie, I am your grandmother."
Yun Jie shrank back and looked at Zhao Xiangwan.
【Dad said, I have a wolf grandmother.】
[My mother also said that my grandmother was very fierce and often hit her palms with a ruler and yelled at her.]
In this world, everything has cause and effect.
Although we don’t know the story between Liu Cuifang and her daughter Xie Lin, Xie Lin’s original family must have had a great influence on where she is today.
Zhao Xiangwan said to Liu Cuifang: "Don't worry, Jiejie is still receiving psychological treatment, you should be patient and gentle."
When Liu Cuifang heard the words "psychological treatment", she felt even more upset and nodded repeatedly: "Okay, okay, I'm not in a hurry, we're not in a hurry..."
Xie Lin was stubborn and often clashed with her mother. Liu Cuifang, who was a very authoritative parent, usually educated her daughter by spanking her hands if she didn't obey, and rarely listened to her daughter's inner thoughts.
But now, Liu Cuifang regrets it. She really hopes that time can go back to the past, hug her persistent and stubborn daughter, and say -
sorry.
Xie Yu and her parents met Yun Jie and learned what happened. The three of them said at the same time: "Call the police!"
The family called the police and filed a missing persons case.
Lei Ling can finally apply for a subpoena and search warrant with good reason.
At seven o'clock in the evening, the lights came on.
In the post office dormitory building, lights were lit up one after another.
Lei Ling, who was squatting downstairs, looked up and saw the light in the last building, Room 203, turn on, and immediately ordered: "Go!"
Lei Ling brought Da Lu and Xiao Wu, Zhao Xiangwan brought Zhu Kang, and the five of them quickly went upstairs and knocked on the door of room 203.
Yun Dehou had just finished his meal at a small restaurant outside and then wandered around the hospital. However, as he approached the gate of the Children's Hospital, he suddenly saw a familiar figure. He was so scared that his heart started pounding and he hurried home.
Xie Yu, why is he here?
Didn't the Xie family no longer want to pay attention to Xie Lin and feel guilty about me? Why didn't they contact me when they arrived in Yao City and went straight to see Yun Jie?
They won’t take Yunjie away, right?
No! Absolutely not!
With an unprecedented sense of crisis in his heart, Yun Dehou frantically searched the house. He opened the drawers of his dressing table, bedside table, and wardrobe, muttering, "Where is it? Where is it?"
Finally, he calmed down, walked to Yunjie's room, found an old-looking Barbie doll in the corner of the bed, and held it tightly in his hand.
There was a knock on the door and Yun Dehou's heart skipped a beat. He replied, "Who is it?" He put the Barbie doll in his hand on the dining table and walked out to open the door.
Seeing Lei Ling, his face was shrouded in gloom, revealing anger and hatred. Yun Dehou sensed something was wrong and decided to strike first: "Officer Lei, you got the court to issue a personal restraining order through the back door, what else do you want? Are you going to kill me all just because I didn't educate my child properly?"
Grandma Fang, who lived next door, heard the noise and opened the door to see what was going on. She saw five uniformed policemen appearing in the hallway. She became suspicious and walked over to ask, "Police comrades, what happened?"
Lei Ling showed the subpoena and asked Yun Dehou to sign it, and explained the reason: "Xie Lin's parents have reported to the police that their daughter has been missing for six years. We are now investigating, please cooperate."
When Grandma Fang heard this, her eyes widened: "Xie Lin? Didn't she go abroad?"
Lei Ling didn't say anything.
Yun Dehou calmed himself down and had to cheer up. He signed the contract and walked out of the house. When he was about to close the door, Lei Ling blocked his way.
Yun Dehou's eyes flickered: "What are you going to do?"
Lei Ling took out the search warrant again: "Sorry, we need to search Xie Lin's former residence."
Yun Dehou leaned to one side, blocking the door tightly: "Are you crazy? Xie Lin has been gone for six years, and this is no longer her residence. What's more, she and I are divorced, why are you searching my house?"
The search warrant was clearly placed in front of Yun Dehou. It was useless for him to struggle or resist. He could only watch Lei Ling step into the room.
Zhao Xiangwan grabbed Yun Dehou's arm, pushed him into the house, and said in a sharp voice: "Just watch here, don't move!"
Zhao Xiangwan suddenly broke through the intimate distance set by Yun Dehou, which made his whole body tense.
The police showed up at his doorstep without warning, with all the necessary documents ready. Yun Dehou felt as if a net had been set up around him that he couldn't escape.
The pool of mud in Yun Dehou's heart began to bubble with bubbles.
【What did Jiejie say to the police? 】
[Do the police believe what children say? ]
[I cut off that bastard's meat, chopped it into meatballs and fed it to Jiejie, so what? That's her mother's meat. If she eats it, we can be together forever. How great, hahahaha...]
The almost crazy laughter made Zhao Xiangwan feel nauseous.
Damn this heartbroken man!
[I only brought back two small pieces of meat from her face, which I had already eaten. You guys can investigate. If you can find any clues, I will admire you!]
Two small lumps of flesh on the face?
Zhao Xiangwan suppressed his disgust and analyzed it. If he only brought back the meat, there would be no trace left after he ate it.
Six years have passed, what evidence is there?
Yun Dehou committed the murder in Kyoto. What evidence can be found in this small house in Yao City?
Things are far more complicated than I imagined.
Lei Ling asked Xiao Wu and Dalü to put on gloves and began to search in an orderly manner.
Zhao Xiangwan stood in front of Yun Dehou, his eyes flashing with swords and shadows, and his voice was stern and quick: "Xie Lin is everywhere in this room, isn't she?"
Yun Dehou was startled and took half a step back.
"This house was allocated by our work unit after we got married. We designed all the furniture and decoration together. Even after we got divorced and she went abroad and no longer had any contact with me, this house still has her aura. Isn't that right?"
What a good excuse!
Zhao Xiangwan took half a step diagonally to the left.
Yun Dehou followed like a shadow and stood in front of Zhao Xiangwan again.
Yun Dehou was extremely nervous, and his inner thoughts came out without any concealment.
[Can’t let her see this.]
【She must not be allowed to see this.】
【這個女人的眼睛有毒！】
趙向晚擡手，一把扣住雲德厚的肩膀，雙手一錯，雲德厚被他推到一邊，露出他身後的餐桌。
只是一張桌子……而已。
趙向晚一步一步靠近餐桌。
她感覺得到雲德厚屏住了呼吸。
聽到了雲德厚越來越急促的心跳。
【不要——】
在這聲凄厲的心聲傳到耳邊時，趙向晚拿起了桌上那只可愛的芭比娃娃。
二十厘米左右的身高，嬌小玲珑，身穿碎花小圍裙，牛仔小短褲，兩只小腳上還穿着白色靴子。肉色的皮膚，藍色的大眼睛、紅嘟嘟的小嘴，蓬松的麻花辮子，辮子末端的發圈上有兩顆米粒大小的白色珠子，看着十分精致可愛。
趙向晚将娃娃拿在手中，翻天覆地地查看着，淡淡道：“這是八十年代末期，中外合資的玩具生産線生産出來的洋娃娃吧？一個不便宜呢。”
雲德厚感覺喉嚨很幹澀，他咽了一口口水，趕緊解釋：“這是我買給潔潔的禮物，她很喜歡。”
趙向晚瞟了他一眼：“你緊張什麽？”
雲德厚哪裏敢承認自己緊張，他幹笑着說：“我緊張什麽。只是，你們警察說搜查就搜查，到處翻我的東西，我當然不高興。這個娃娃是潔潔喜歡的玩具，你拿着它做什麽。”
趙向晚還在仔細查看，思索着雲潔說過“媽媽就藏在家裏的每一個角落”到底指的是什麽。
人體組織，有什麽是可以藏在家裏每一個角落的？
目光？
趙向晚用手撥弄着洋娃娃的眼珠子。
樹脂材料，沒有問題。
衣服？
布料是否是謝琳離開時所穿，不得而知。即使是，也不能成為有效證據。
頭發？
趙向晚眼睛一亮，用手撫過那蓬松的麻花辮子，觸感絲絲縷縷，如真實頭發一般。
可是，趙向晚的眼眸又随之一暗。
如果頭發是剪斷而非拔下，不帶發根的頭發沒辦法進行DNA檢測。
趙向晚拿着這個洋娃娃左翻右看，雲德厚心裏一直在打鼓。高度緊張的他，內心那灘爛泥裏的心聲咕呼咕咚地往外冒。
【她不會發現了頭發的秘密吧？】
【現在警察會檢查那個D什麽A還是B，會不會查出來是謝琳的？】
【還有那珠子……】
聽到這裏，趙向晚終于放下心來。看來，雲德厚還不知道沒有發根的頭發查不出來？挺好！還有珠子……管它是什麽，先帶回局裏請物證科的同志查一查。
瑤市沒辦法做DNA檢測，那就送到省廳刑事鑒定中心，找苗慧幫忙。
趙向晚取出一個物證袋，将洋娃娃放了進去。
雲德厚呼吸一滞，一時之間不知道應該如何應對，只能不停地重複着：“那是潔潔最喜歡的玩具，你收了它做什麽？”
雷淩拉開廚房冰箱裏的冷凍室，每袋凍肉都取了樣，裝進物證袋。又在每個房間裏尋找可能的人體組織，以及與謝琳有關的文件資料。
包括，戶口本、離婚證、離婚協議等。
走進雲潔的房間，雷淩倒抽了一口涼氣。
冰冷、寒酸、陰暗。
三月這麽冷的天，冰冷的床板上只有一床薄被子，枕頭看着也有些時間沒有洗，髒兮兮的。
屋子裏除了一張小木床、一個衣櫃、一張書桌、一把椅子之外，角落裏還放着一個紅漆馬桶。
雖然馬桶清理幹淨了，但空氣裏依然飄着一股淡淡的尿騷味。
這哪裏是個天真孩童的房間？
簡直像舊社會的監牢。
雷淩一個沒忍住，咬着牙罵道：“雲德厚，你就這麽照顧孩子的？”
小伍也看不過眼，罵了一句：“這還不是虐待？畜生！”自己的房間溫暖如春，幹淨清爽，孩子的房間卻冷如冰窖，他還好意思說雲潔是他的性命？
雲德厚繼續狡辯：“潔潔這段時間不是住院嗎？這屋子我就沒有打掃。我是男人嘛，哪裏能像女人一樣細心能幹？你們要怪、要罵，就去罵那個狠心把潔潔抛棄的媽媽！”
話音剛落，一道旋風刮過。
一個人影猛地從門外沖了進來，二話不說一拳頭過去，狠狠砸在雲德厚臉上。
“嘭！”
地一聲響，雲德厚措手不及，被打得整個人後仰，鼻血長流。
“嘭！”
還沒來得及哀號，又是一拳頭過來。
雲德厚一只眼睛被捶中，痛得慘叫起來：“啊——”
雷淩快速出手，一把攔住瘋了一樣、還要繼續痛揍雲德厚的人：“謝瑜，你冷靜一點！”
謝瑜雙手緊緊捏拳，因為過度用力而骨節泛白。他的眼裏迸射出憤怒的火焰，咬牙切齒地看着雲德厚：“你這個畜生！你把我姐還給我！”
雲德厚看清楚打自己的人是謝瑜，頓時面色一白。
他一只手捂住青紫的眼睛，另一只眼睛緊緊盯着謝瑜，心髒狂跳。
【真的是他！他來了。】
當年雲德厚追求謝琳，所有人都覺得雲德厚是個老實、腼腆、善良的老好人，只有謝瑜嗤之以鼻，暗地裏警告過雲德厚，不要耍滑頭。
謝瑜是體育生，學自由搏擊的，一拳頭過來，雲德厚根本吃不消，因此整個謝家人，他不怕岳父岳母，就怕謝瑜。
謝瑜力氣大，雷淩與小伍兩個人拼了老命才把他攔住。
雲德厚被打得鼻青臉腫，可是卻一個屁都不敢放，只敢哆嗦着說：“謝瑜，你，你姐已經和我離婚了。”
謝瑜大吼一聲：“就因為離婚，你就把她殺了？我告訴你，殺人償命！！！”
雲德厚陰險狡詐，看着好像挺狠毒，實際內心是虛的，他只敢虐待孩子，見到兇悍的謝瑜，卻根本不敢反抗，嗫嚅着說話：“沒有，沒有，我沒殺人。你姐出國了，你爸媽不是還收到過她從國外寄回來的信嗎？”
謝瑜心裏恨極了雲德厚，根本不聽他的狡辯：“我姐要是活着，怎麽可能只寄一封信回來？先前那封信，是你讓郵遞員送過來的吧？就是你捏造的！你肯定在我姐一出瑤市就跟了上去，路上把她殺了。”
再怕謝瑜，當着警察的面，雲德厚也絕不可能認下殺人罪名，當下便叫起屈來：“你不要血口噴人。你姐崇洋媚外，抛夫棄女，拿着我賣房子的錢買了出國的機票，六年前一走了之，不和所有親人聯系，那是你姐沒有良心。你反過來說是我殺了她？誰看到了？誰看到了？”
二樓的動靜太大，鄰居們都圍了上來。
聽到謝瑜的指控，一時之間面面相觑，悄悄議論起來。
一開始，大多數人都覺得不可能。
“不會吧？小雲平時工作本分、為人老實，怎麽可能殺人？”
“對啊，明明是謝琳不對在先，一去六年，連個消息都不給家裏人，怎麽現在謝家人反過來冤枉是雲德厚殺人？”
可是，看到面容嚴肅進門搜查的警察、一臉憤怒的謝瑜、被打了也不敢還手的雲德厚，慢慢地，鄰居們想到了許多細節。
“欸，你們說，小謝說的會不會是真的？”
“我記得謝琳走後，小雲就把潔潔丢給方奶奶，請了三天假出去了一趟，說是要追到機場把謝琳勸回來。會不會……因為沒有勸回來，所以動了殺心？”
“謝琳別人可能不會聯系，但潔潔是她的親骨肉，按理也該寫封信回來問問情況。娘家人就算燒了一封信，她還是可以寫第二封、第三封信的嘛，可是偏偏一點消息都沒有。不會真的是出事了吧？”
要是群衆的心思也很奇怪。
先前謝琳堅決出國，一辦下簽證就與雲德厚離婚，拖着箱子離開這個小區的時候，三歲多的雲潔跟在她屁股後頭邊哭邊喊，哭聲凄厲，令人不忍直視。
那個時候，人人憎恨謝琳，都罵她不要臉，為了出國連女兒都不要。大家對雲德厚無比同情，覺得他是個可憐人，即使對女兒有些疏忽，也能夠原諒。
可是現在聽說謝琳可能早就被雲德厚殺害，他卻像個沒事人一樣騙取大家的同情，大家的憤怒迅速被點燃，轉而開始唾棄雲德厚。
就連方奶奶，也開始氣得直跺腳：“小方啊，你要不得咧~怎麽能夠做出這麽喪盡天良的事！謝琳再不對，她也已經和你離婚，跟你沒有關系，你去害她做什麽？你恨她就恨她嘛，幹嘛要欺負潔潔那個可憐的孩子！”
看到越來越多的人聚在門口，聽着他們肆無忌憚地讨論着自己家裏的事情，雲德厚又羞又惱，大聲叫了起來：“我沒有殺人！是謝瑜血口噴人！”
趙向晚忽然揚起手中證物袋。
透明的袋子裏，裝着那個洋娃娃。
“你沒有殺人？那這個娃娃的頭發為什麽是謝琳的？”
趙向晚的聲音清澈似泉水，卻又冷冽如寒風，當她的話語傳到每個人的耳邊時，所有人都震驚了。
無數雙眼睛，死死地盯着那個洋娃娃。
雲德厚感覺頭頂有一道閃電劈下。
趙向晚的聲音明明不大，落在雲德厚的耳中卻宛如巨雷轟鳴。
At this moment, Yun Dehou felt like he was drowning and suffocating.
The catastrophe of the top.
This is the moment Zhao Xiangwan has been waiting for!
Isn’t it said that Yao City is a small place and public opinion has a particularly great influence?
Then don't go to the interrogation room, we will try Yun Dehou here in public!
Yun Dehou cares about psychological distance.
Yun Dehou cares about everyone's discussion.
Very good, then let the voices of the crowd gather together to put psychological pressure on Yun Dehou.
"I killed you—"
With a loud roar, Xie Yu broke through Lei Ling's obstruction, rushed to Yun Dehou's side, and punched him hard in the face.
"puff!"
A mouthful of blood foam flew out, and several teeth flew out of Yun Dehou's mouth.
Seeing the tooth dropped on the ground and looking at the white beads adorning the ends of the doll's fluffy braided hair, Zhao Xiangwan suddenly understood something.
Yun Dehou fell to the ground after being hit by Xie Yu's punch. He was in unbearable pain and gasping for breath.
Zhao Xiangwan bent down, staring at Yun Dehou, whose face was covered in blood, with a sharp gaze. He handed the doll to Yun Dehou and said word by word, "This bead was ground out by Xie Lin's teeth, right?"
There were shouts and screams in the corridor.
The buzz of discussion grew louder and louder.
The residents of the two buildings in front also ran over to find out what had happened. The staircase was full of people, a huge crowd of people, it looked like there were at least 60 or 70 people, if not 100.
Yun Dehou still had a trace of clarity in his mind, and shook his head desperately: "No, no, I didn't..."
Zhao Xiangwan straightened up, looked at the noisy crowd, and said loudly: "Yun Jie told the police that you have been threatening her at home for a long time, saying that her mother is hiding at home, and if she doesn't listen to you, her mother will come and eat her, right?"
Yun Dehou's ears began to buzz and his vision went dark.
Zhao Xiangwan held up the doll and said, "Xie Lin was indeed hiding at home, but only her hair and teeth were left at home. You killed Xie Lin, but brought back these trophies, right?"
A leader-like person in the crowd said, "Yun Dehou! When the police ask you questions, tell them the truth! Police forensic technology is very advanced nowadays. They can use DNA technology to identify whose teeth and hair belong to."
Grandma Fang was standing closest to him. She walked up to Yun Dehou and spat at him: "Bah! Hurry up and explain clearly that you didn't kill that person!"
Someone was shouting, "There has never been a bad guy in our post office over the years. Yun Dehou, tell the truth. Did you kill Xie Lin?"
"Yes! Confessing is your only choice!"
The crowd's angry shouts grew louder and louder, like a tsunami, pressing Yun Dehou under the water, making it completely impossible for him to breathe.
"What a sin! Xie Lin was right to leave him. It was not enough to kill people, he also used them to make hair braids and teeth beads, and placed them at home as toys for children. How horrible."
"If I were Xie Lin, there's no way I'd marry him."
"If he wasn't good at coaxing people and saying that he fully supports Xie Lin's dream, how could Xie Lin, who is so beautiful and stylish, an English teacher with a good family background, be interested in a poor boy like Yun Dehou?"
Xie Yu was still not satisfied and wanted to go up and kick Yun Dehou a few times, but was stopped by Zhao Xiangwan with a stern look.
This was the most critical moment of the interrogation. You beat Yun Dehou to a pulp and knocked him unconscious. You were venting your anger, but how could the interrogation continue?
Zhao Xiangwan bent down and whispered in Yun Dehou's ear: "Did you hear that? The public's eyes are sharp. Xie Lin married you because you could support her to go abroad, but after having a child, you regretted it and tried to stop her. Xie Lin was right to leave you! Which woman would be willing to live with a useless, incompetent, selfish and despicable person like you?"
Zhao Xiangwan's words were like a sharp sword piercing his chest, shattering Yun Dehou's sensitive self-esteem.
Yun Dehou slowly raised his head, bloodthirsty madness flashing in his eyes.
[That bitch wants to leave me? Dream on.]
[I chopped off her fingers, scratched her face, broke her teeth, and threw her into the Tiefeng Reservoir. Even if her body floated up, who would know that she was Xie Lin from Yao City?]
[I buried my finger under the wall. With the fertilizer, the creeper will grow well.]
[I grind my teeth into beads and scatter them in the closets, drawers, and under the bed at home, like pearls that have been cut off from the string. In this way, she will be with me and Jiejie forever, and we will never be separated again.]
Important clues: Tieshan Reservoir, fingers, teeth.
Zhao Xiangwan finally heard clearly what Yun Dehou was thinking, and he felt relieved.
She straightened up slowly and said to Zhu Kang, "Take note."
Zhu Kang worked well with her and immediately took out a notebook from his bag and squatted aside to start taking notes.
Zhao Xiangwan looked down at Yun Dehou with a mocking sneer on his face: "Yun Dehou, confess your crimes honestly. You can no longer hide what you have done."
Yun Dehou struggled to get up from the ground and was met with countless familiar eyes.
These were colleagues, neighbors, and acquaintances who usually greeted him with a smile, but at this moment, there was alienation, indifference, disgust, and hatred in their eyes.
【There is no going back.】
【There is no going back to the past.】
【No one will believe me.】
[My job, future, prospects... everything is ruined. ]
At this moment, Yun Dehou knew that he was finished.
