Chapter 224 Poisonous Hand
As dawn broke, Wu Yong'an led several police officers to Bakeshu Village.
After entering the village, they went straight to the educated youth settlement.
By this time, the fire that the educated youth had started had also gone out.
Everything that needed to be burned has been burned.
All that remains are the dark, mud-brick walls, proving that these were once houses.
Wu Yong'an led Chen Liguo and the others through the houses one by one.
Finally, at the location of Shao Guoyang's house, two charred corpses were found.
The two corpses were tightly intertwined, and judging from their posture, they were clearly fighting each other before they died.
"this……"
When Tong Liqun saw the two corpses, his expression suddenly changed: "This is Shao Guoyang and Li Aiping's house. They... were burned to death?"
Wu Yong'an's gaze darkened, and he asked, "Secretary Tong, how many people live in this educated youth settlement in total?"
"Four people, plus two educated youths, Zheng Haiyang and Liu Xian." Tong Liqun felt uneasy.
Without Wu Yong'an needing to say anything, he led them directly towards the room where Zheng Haiyang and Liu Xian were.
Because he felt unwell after seeing the corpse in Shao Guoyang's room, Tong Liqun only pointed to the two rooms this time and refused to go any further.
After checking, Wu Yong'an said, "There is no one in either of these rooms."
"Nobody?"
Tong Liqun was taken aback, and his suspicions deepened.
In his view, Shao Guoyang and Li Aiping were likely victims of Zheng Haiyang and his gang, who then fled after killing and setting fires.
Thinking of this, Tong Liqun told Wu Yong'an his guess without hesitation.
Wu Yong'an's heart sank, and he asked, "Secretary Tong, do you mean that Zheng Haiyang and his men killed Shao Guoyang and his wife? Why?"
"Shao Guoyang and his wife just received their university admission notices yesterday, and this incident happened last night. It's highly likely that Zheng Haiyang and Liu Xian coveted the university spots for Shao Guoyang and his wife, so they decided to kill them and steal their admission notices!"
The more Tong Liqun thought about it, the more he felt that this was the possibility.
Wu Yong'an's expression changed, and he also felt that Tong Liqun's idea was very likely.
He immediately ordered Chen Liguo to take his men to the town to see if they could catch Zheng Haiyang and his gang.
He himself looked somewhat somber as he walked with Tong Liqun toward Tong Liqun's home.
As soon as they reached Tong Liqun's door, they saw Xia Yi staring venomously at Tong Liqun's tightly closed door.
Upon seeing this, Tong Liqun was startled, and the cigarette he had been holding in his mouth, which he had only lit a short while ago, fell directly to the ground.
"Xia Yi, what are you doing here?"
He might not dare to speak for other educated youth, but Xia Yi was definitely not a good person.
If she hadn't framed Xu Yirou back then, she wouldn't have ended up in this situation, harming both herself and others.
Even without asking, Tong Liqun knew that Xia Yi's visit here was definitely not for good purposes.
Not to mention, when they walked over just now, Xia Yi, standing outside his courtyard gate with a sinister and resentful expression, looked like a female ghost coming to claim his life.
If it weren't already daylight, and if Wu Yong'an, a policeman, hadn't been there to accompany him...
I'm afraid that this old man will really be so frightened that he'll go to see his parents.
Hearing Tong Liqun's question, Xia Yi turned her head coldly, glanced at him and Wu Yong'an, then smiled sinisterly and said, "Well, well! Xu Yirou is really lucky! Not only did she become a teacher and not have to work in the fields, but she also has you, the Party Secretary, protecting her, and she even hooked up with a fiancé like Director Wu. Now she's been admitted to Peking University! Hahaha, how come all the good things have fallen on Xu Yirou?"
Xia Yi laughed until tears streamed down her face.
Why is it that all the good things happen to Xu Yirou?
If any one of these things had been given to her, she wouldn't be living such a miserable life now.
"Xia Yi, what's wrong with you? If you're not feeling well, go back home and stop acting crazy here."
Tong Liqun glanced at the cigarettes on the ground with a pained expression.
He's only taken a few puffs!
Thinking it over, he quickly bent down and picked up the cigarette.
Thankfully, the cigarette fell onto clean snow and didn't get dirty, so I can still smoke it.
"Secretary Tong, what am I doing? I just heard that Xu Yirou got into a university in Beijing, so I came to congratulate her."
Xia Yi's smile carried a chilling undertone.
She originally wanted to rush in, beat Xu Yirou up, and ideally find her acceptance letter and tear it up.
But who could have imagined that she knocked on the door for so long, and no one came to open it?
Xu Yirou and Cai Shuhua were clearly inside.
But they all pretended to be deaf and dumb and remained silent.
Before she could even think of a way to rush in, Tong Liqun and the others had already returned.
How come Xu Yirou, that bitch, is so lucky?
Looking at Tong Liqun, who is extremely selfish and never cares about the life and death of the educated youth, he actually stepped forward to protect Xu Yirou.
He even let Xu Yirou move into his house.
She was certain that if Xu Yirou had still lived in the educated youth settlement, even if she hadn't been killed, she would have been in no better shape than herself.
"I don't need your fake congratulations, Xia Yi. If you still refuse to leave, don't blame me for going directly to your mother-in-law to discipline you!"
Tong Liqun snorted coldly. Someone like Xia Yi probably wishes she could kill Xu Yirou right now!
And they even congratulated Xu Yirou? Do they think Tong Liqun is stupid?
He's been the village party secretary for so many years, he's seen all kinds of people.
She thinks she can outsmart me?
Xia Yi originally wanted to continue entangled with Tong Liqun.
Upon hearing that he was going to find Li Xiangdi, he was so frightened that his face changed color. He didn't dare to say another word and just turned and ran away.
There was no other way; she had truly been tormented by Li Xiangdi these past few days.
It wasn't just simple beatings; Li Xiangdi had endless ways to torture people, far beyond what she, a woman in her early twenties, could imagine.
If you were to ask Xia Yi who she fears most right now, besides Li Xiangdi, she wouldn't guess anyone else.
Unfortunately, she has no way to escape now. She can only endure the torment of the Tong family without any support or power to fight back.
If the college entrance exam hadn't been over for so long, she wouldn't even be able to leave the Tong family's house.
Not to mention coming to Tong Liqun's house to cause trouble for Xu Yirou.
"laugh!"
Tong Liqun looked at Xia Yi's frightened appearance, sneered, and said, "You little brat, you think you can fight me? Do you really think I'm the village party secretary for nothing!"
