Chapter 148 The Witness Deliberately Conceals (1/2)



Facing everyone's puzzled looks, Jiang Si expressed her thoughts.

"Uncle, I still think it's more likely that Yu Manli will find her boyfriend."

Uncle Huo did not deny it this time, but asked: "You mean, that man lied?"

If you think about it carefully, this is possible. After all, these two people are in the honeymoon period now.

If the other party knew that the Yu family forced Yu Manli into marriage, he would definitely not be able to accept it.

Therefore, he would most likely find a place to hide Yu Manli first, and then come back to apologize after the marriage fails.

If we think the worst of them, they will take advantage of this period of time to make the rice a cooked meal.

No matter how reluctant the Yu family was, they had no choice but to accept this marriage.

Jiang Si nodded, "This is just one of my guesses."

From what I heard, there is a second guess.

Jiang Si didn't keep the secret and continued, "There is another possibility. Yu Manli went to find him, but something happened in the middle, causing her to be unable to find a place and was taken away by another person."

This is the most terrifying part of this matter.

If she was simply hidden by the man named Mo, at least her life would not be in danger.

But the second possibility is harder to say.

Moreover, more than ten hours have passed since the incident, and no one knows what will happen in the meantime.

Thinking of this, Jiang Si said in a deep voice: "If you want to know whether she went to look for his boyfriend, it's very simple. When Yu Manli left the compound, the Beijing State-owned Taxi Company had not yet opened."

"The only option she had was the bus."

"You can check which bus you need to take from your boyfriend's place in Beijing, and then ask the conductor of the earliest bus and you will know."

There were fewer people on the early bus, and it was obvious from Yu Manli’s dress that she was not from an ordinary family.

Plus, her eyes were swollen like walnuts yesterday, so the ticket seller might actually remember it.

Sure enough, the next day, just as Jiang Si had completed the employment procedures accompanied by Huo Tingzhou, Fourth Uncle Huo sent someone to call her over.

"You really guessed it right."

As soon as the door opened, Uncle Huo quickly explained the situation.

"We checked and found that Yu Manli left the compound at around 4:10 in the morning. The bus had not yet left, so she walked all the way to the vicinity of Hujialou."

Jiang Si knew about Hujialou, which was near the Central Television Station in later generations.

It takes about forty minutes to walk from here.

Fourth Uncle Huo continued, "Mo Zhenyu lives in Tong County. The only way to get to Tong County from the city is to take bus No. 342 from Hujialou Terminal."

"Yu Manli took the first bus to Tong County at 5:30, and then she got off at Xinhua Street."

"It takes quite some time to walk from Xinhua Street to Mojia Village where Mo Zhenyu is."

"Early this morning, Captain Liu from the Criminal Investigation Brigade led people there."

Fourth Uncle Huo poured each of them a cup of tea and said, "You sit down and rest for a while. They should be back soon."

Jiang Si nodded.

The three of them sat down and chatted for less than ten minutes when Captain Liu knocked on the door and came in.

"Director."

"Okay, sit down."

Fourth Uncle Huo waved his hand and asked him to sit down and talk.

Captain Liu smiled and didn't say anything polite. After sitting down, he told him everything about the investigation.

"Mo Zhenyu has been brought here and is now in the interrogation room."

"But we went to the village to investigate and found that this kid might not have lied."

"On the day of the incident, he left home at almost eight in the morning, then went to the brigade headquarters of his village and waited there for a call until almost eleven o'clock before returning home."

Fourth Uncle Huo thought for a moment, "What about before eight o'clock? Did he go out?"

"It doesn't matter whether he goes out or not."

Captain Liu explained: "Yu Manli arrived at Xinhua Street at 7:45 in the morning. From Xinhua Street to Mojia Village, it would take an hour if you walk quickly."

"For someone like Yu Manli who wears small leather shoes, it will take about nine o'clock before she can get up."

After understanding the situation, Fourth Uncle Huo took a deep breath and then looked at Jiang Si.

"It seems that things are heading in the worst direction."

From Xinhua Street to Mojia Village, there are more than ten forked intersections in between.

At this moment, the person has been missing for more than twenty-four hours.

If there is no clue today, finding someone in the future will be as difficult as finding a needle in a haystack.

After hearing the entire progress of the case, Jiang Si also felt it was a difficult situation.

Fortunately, she doesn't have any psychological burden.

She can help if she can, but if she really can't, there's nothing she can do about it.
