Chapter 168 (Two in One)
Lin Shuyue was truly stunned. She had never expected that the criminal who was handed over to the police in the morning would die within two hours.
What she couldn't understand was that there were two policemen on duty at the checkpoint, so how could they let the pervert get away?
But no matter what, she had to go and check it out if someone was killed. Only this time, she went to the police station near the square.
When Lin Shuyue arrived, the girl in the white down jacket was still there in the morning. After the morning police call, Lin Shuyue had already memorized her name.
Ruan Tinglan, a nice name. She should have been called over during working hours. She was wearing a dark blue uniform under her down jacket.
She took off her mask, revealing her pretty face. She smiled at Lin Shuyue, but she was not happy in her heart.
She was called here on her way to work. She still couldn't believe it. How could the hooligan die? He was hit to death on the roadside! ! !
What bad luck, Ruan Tinglan thought.
Lin Shuyue had just sat on the stool when the aunt with a hammer who had threatened the pervert on the bus with Lin Shuyue in the morning also came. The aunt was still wearing an apron. Lin Shuyue's good and evil radar has always been on, and the good and evil values of Ruan Tinglan and the aunt with the hammer are both around 5%.
Obviously, none of them could be the murderer.
The aunt with the hammer saw Lin Shuyue and Ruan Tinglan, and said with a bitter face: "What's going on? The nails on my wall were loose, and I bought a hammer when I went out to buy vegetables this morning. When I was on the bus, I thought that gangster was too hateful, so I took out the hammer. Who could have thought that this would happen!"│
Catching a pervert on the bus is a great feat, and the aunt with the hammer can brag about it to her neighbors for a year. But being involved in a murder case is a different matter, and it is an unlucky thing that one does not even want to mention.
When Ruan Tinglan heard Aunt Daichui say this, she agreed with him: "Who said it wasn't true? I was doing well in that class, but I was called over. What bad luck."
After Ruan Tinglan finished speaking, she moved closer to Lin Shuyue and thanked her. She had wanted to thank her in the morning, but Lin Shuyue ran faster than a rabbit. When she chased her out, Lin Shuyue had disappeared.
"No need to thank me. If I encounter such things in the future, I still have to fight back. Although it is difficult." Lin Shuyue sighed.
There are so many perverts on bus No. 027. Lin Shuyue doesn't believe that no one has resisted. But this thing is like a weed, which can't be blown away by the wind. There are also many people who like them. Maybe when the girls resist, they will cover up for each other.
Ruan Dinh Lan said: "I usually avoid taking bus No. 027. I would rather take more buses. I woke up late this morning, otherwise I would not take it. I heard that about two years ago, a girl on bus No. 027 got off the night shift and took the last bus home. As a result, she was followed by a pervert after getting off the bus and died."
"That pervert must be a veteran. It is said that he didn't leave any trace at all." Ruan Tinglan's voice became noticeably softer as she spoke.
Aunt Daichui also came over and said, "Yes, yes, yes. In those two years, no women were willing to ride on bus No. 027. It's only in the past two years when things have calmed down that more people have started riding on the bus." Aunt Daichui obviously knew more.
She said, "That little girl is near Songzhuang where we live now. When her mother heard the news, she cried so hard that her eyes went blind. What a sin."
When Lin Shuyue heard what Ruan Tinglan and Aunt Daichui said, she already had a vague idea. She analyzed, could this be another case where the victim's family couldn't find the murderer, so they hated every pervert on the bus equally?
A police officer came over and interrupted Ruan Tinglan's conversation with Aunt Daichui, and also interrupted Lin Shuyue's thoughts.
Ruan Tinglan was called in for questioning, and Lin Shuyue was also called into another interrogation room. When questioned, Lin Shuyue was not at all panicked because she had a perfect alibi. The photos she took in the square and the soldiers on guard could testify for her.
During the interrogation, Lin Shuyue also learned the basic information of the pervert who was caught by Lin Shuyue.
His name is Wang Chengjian. He works as a salesman in a furniture store west of the square. He has a wife and a son.
In people’s general perception, going to a police station is a very shameful thing, let alone being sent there for being a hooligan on a bus, which is even more shameful!
Wang Chengjian couldn't stand the days of being discriminated against, so when the police at the duty booth escorted him to the police car, he took advantage of the gap when his colleagues who were arrested with him got into the car and ran away.
He was obviously very familiar with the nearby terrain, as he just ran along the alley.
The alleys in the capital are complicated. When the police caught up with him, he was lying at the entrance of the alley in a very twisted posture. There was a bowl-sized wound on his head, blood was hissing out, and he was already dead.
Lin Shuyue and others who had a very direct conflict with Wang Chengjian in the morning were called in for investigation.
Lin Shuyue's suspicion was easily cleared. When she came out of the interrogation room, Ruan Tinglan was still in the reception hall. She insisted on inviting Lin Shuyue to dinner, and Lin Shuyue couldn't refuse no matter how she did.
Helplessly, the two could only go together. Ruan Tinglan did not treat Lin Shuyue to a big meal. The two found a clay pot cross-bridge rice noodle restaurant.
The northern cross-bridge rice noodles are filled with green vegetables, bean sprouts, meatballs, and beans.
The shredded tofu has a very rich flavor, and just the smell makes people salivate. The dish is served very quickly, not long after I ordered, it came out.
Ruan Tinglan stood up and picked up a small plate of pickled radish: "The rice noodles in this restaurant are cheap and delicious. We usually like to eat here."
"It smells nice, it must taste good." Lin Shuyue took a deep breath.
Seeing that she liked it, Ruan Tinglan breathed a sigh of relief: "Thank you for helping me this morning, otherwise I really don't know what to do."
The small shop was bustling with people, but Ruan Tinglan's words were clearly audible. Lin Shuyue looked over through the rising steam of the rice noodles. Ruan Tinglan was eating the rice noodles. She said words of thanks, but the expression on her face was very normal.
Ruan Tinglan also realized that her expression was not right. She touched her face and said, "You must be curious about why I am so calm."
She smiled bitterly and said, "I am 20 years old this year, but I have been begging for four years. You must think I am poor, but you are wrong. I am actually a child from a wealthy family."
Ruan Tinglan's words made Lin Shuyue slow down her eating.
Ruan Tinglan was eating tofu shreds in the rice noodles. When she was most helpless, there were so many people in the car, but only Lin Shuyue stood up to help her.
From the moment she entered society, she had learned not to tell others about her suffering, because she had always known that people's sorrows and joys could not be shared. What you find extremely painful may just be a ridiculous joke to others.
But she had been holding back her words for too many years, and it only took a small thing to make her want to speak.
There are some things that she has been holding back for many years. Ruan Tinglan often feels that if she doesn't say anything anymore, she might suffocate to death.
Seeing Lin Shuyue's curiosity, she continued, "My biological parents are from Su Province, and their family should be quite wealthy. It is said that when I was one year old, I went out with my parents, and was abducted by human traffickers. In the end, I was sold to my parents in the suburbs of the capital."
"One of my parents is lame and the other is mute. They didn't want to buy me because their lives were already difficult. My father said that once they had a full meal, they didn't know where the rest of the meal would come from."
"But when they saw me, it was already winter. I was wearing very thin clothes, my whole body was red, and I was seriously ill. The traffickers couldn't sell me anymore, so they wanted to throw me to death. My mother couldn't bear to see this, so she used their life savings to buy me. They did their best and gave me all the best they had."
Ruan Tinglan has known her life story since she was a child, and her father has never hidden it from her. When she was young, she fantasized about her biological parents. She thought that her adoptive parents were so good to her, so her biological parents would surely treat her even better, right?
However, the opposite happened.
"When I was fifteen, my mother fell seriously ill. We tried every possible method and spent all our money, but we still couldn't save her. We even owed a large debt. My father had a limp in one leg and worked on construction sites with others. He worked harder than others, but could only earn half of what they did."
Ruan Tinglan's eyes were red. "Even so, he didn't stop paying for my tuition. I dropped out of school on my own. I started working as a waiter at first. Every month, I earned money with my dad to pay off the family debt, but it was too much and there were too many creditors."
When Ruan Tinglan said this, Lin Shuyue knew that there was a turning point.
Ruan Tinglan continued: "My biological parents came to find me. They said I was their lost child and wanted to take me back."
Ruan Tinglan smiled bitterly, as if she saw the couple who had come all the way to find her three years ago. "Before I could express my opinion, my so-called biological mother said that because my family missed me so much, they adopted a girl named Sisi, Fu Sisi."
"Isn't it nice? According to them, they called me Sisi because they missed me. But do you know what's the funniest thing? They said that Sisi didn't know I existed since she was a child, and she always thought she was the biological daughter of the Fu family. So they hope that I can take a step back and stop caring about this matter. I can go back and live here as the Fu family's cousin."
"I thought it was hilarious at the time. It was then that I realized that not all parents in this world love their children."
"I didn't agree with them and asked them for a sum of money that I never dared to think of in my life. Then I paid off the family debt and brought my father to the capital. But my father didn't survive that winter."
A tear fell from Nguyen Dinh Lan's face. She said, "I don't have parents anymore. I used the remaining money to buy the two best tombs in the capital and buried them together."
"I became a poor man with nothing again. I knew long ago that it is useless to be angry and resentful when encountering things. I want to survive in this world, so I have to be as tough as the weeds in the field."
Ruan Tinglan looked at Lin Shuyue with an apologetic look on her face: "So I'm sorry, reporter Lin, I can only treat you to some rice noodles. Because I want to save money and buy another one next to my parents' graves. With them in my place, I will have a home again."
Lin Shuyue took a bite of the rice noodles. The noodles were smooth and chewy, as if they would bounce in her mouth. She shook her head and said, "No, I think this rice noodle is delicious."
Ruan Tinglan laughed and said to Lin Shuyue, "Reporter Lin, don't feel sad for me. My father said that everyone has their own destiny when they come to this world. I must have done too many bad things in my previous life, so I came to atone for my sins in this life."
"But my father also said that they must have done a lot of good things in their previous lives to have a daughter like me. I am very satisfied to have them in this life."
Lin Shuyue was speechless when she saw Ruan Tinglan like this. She was always at a loss for words at times like these.
"So for me, nothing is impossible. I just treated what happened this morning as a dog bite. It was over quickly." Ruan Tinglan was very open-minded, but no matter how open-minded she was, she was just a 20-year-old girl. She was also afraid when she encountered that kind of thing.
Lin Shuyue said: "When it's convenient for you, can I go see your parents?"
Happy people are all the same, but unhappy people are each unhappy in their own way. Lin Shuyue couldn't imagine how many nights the girl in front of her had spent breaking down and healing alone.
Lin Shuyue's grandmother in her previous life liked to watch all kinds of soap operas, such as the story of a true or false daughter, with the same core, but it had been broadcast over and over again for several times. Some of the real daughters in it are good. Even after suffering hardships, they are still sincere and kind.
Some real daughters of rich families are stimulated by the huge gap and become shrews, resentful women, and even clowns.
There are actually very few people as insightful as Ruan Tinglan. Three points of this come from her nature, and the remaining seven points are thanks to her adoptive parents. They were poor, but left Nguyen Dinh Lan with a lifetime of wealth.
They are great people. Lin Shuyue suddenly had an urge to go and see them.
Lin Shuyue felt that she was becoming more and more emotional.
Ruan Tinglan didn’t expect Lin Shuyue to say such a thing, but she quickly agreed: “My dad must be very happy that someone other than me will go to see them.”
"Let's do it tomorrow. I'm on vacation tomorrow. I'll call you then?" Ruan Tinglan looked at Lin Shuyue inquiringly.
"Okay, okay."
That settled the matter, and Ruan Tinglan was busy going back to work. She was also working in a building materials city now, but their building materials city was not the same one as the one where Se/Wolf King Chengjian worked.
Lin Shuyue went to wait for the bus. On the way, she received a call from Hang Jiabai and was shocked to realize that it was already noon.
She stood by the road, leaning against a magnolia tree, and told Hang Jiabai what happened in the morning. Hang Jiabai's brows were furrowed so tightly that they could pick up stones.
"Don't be so reckless next time. Most of the people who do such things on the bus have no bottom line. If you just rush up like this, what if that person has a weapon?" Hang Jiabai said nervously, and the image of Lin Shuyue covered in blood seemed to appear in front of him again.
Lin Shuyue understood the truth, but she didn't think too much about it at the time. At that time, Ruan Tinglan looked at everyone with pleading eyes.
She has always hated men bullying women, so how could she just stand by and watch?
Hang Jiabai also knew Lin Shuyue's personality. Wasn't it because of Lin Shuyue's personality that he was gradually attracted to her?
Considering her fate of bringing blood and gore wherever she goes, Hang Jiabai was speechless. From his experience, Lin Shuyue never causes trouble for others. Usually, the trouble comes to her.
He said, "Stay where you are. I'll come find you. Xu Yu is inviting us to dinner tonight. He's joined the criminal police team."
"Oh, really? Then we have to congratulate him." The gloom in Lin Shuyue's heart was somewhat dispelled by this happy event.
After hanging up the phone, Lin Shuyue squatted on the side of the road. As she squatted, she thought of the case in the morning and what Ruan Tinglan said to the aunt with the hammer. She was curious whether there was any connection between the two things.の
The phone rang, and Lin Shuyue thought it was Hang Jiabai calling, but when she took it out, she saw it was Liu Xiaoping.
Liu Xiaoping was one of the two older sisters who lived with Feng Qinqin when she moved to a new dormitory. She was one of the people who stopped Gong Sufen on the day when Feng Qinqin and He Wanqing confronted each other.
She worked at Capital Wangyue Magazine. When Lin Shuyue saw her phone number, she already knew why she called. She answered the phone, and before she could say anything, she heard Liu Xiaoping's very sweet voice from the other end.
After a brief greeting, Liu Xiaoping asked her about what happened on the No. 027 bus in the morning. Lin Shuyue was not surprised that she knew this, after all, she had given two statements at the police station. It was an extremely easy thing for Liu Xiaoping to find out that she was among the parties involved.
Lin Shuyue also believed that her name had probably spread throughout the entire capital and people were eager to make a name for herself.
Lin Shuyue told Liu Xiaoping everything she knew, except Ruan Tinglan's identity.
Liu Xiaoping was very grateful to her. After promising to treat her to a barbecue when he had time, he hung up the phone and rushed to write the manuscript.
Liu Xiaoping's phone call was like a switch, and Lin Shuyue's phone never stopped ringing after that. Hang Jiabai drove a black SUV and stopped in front of her. Lin Shuyue's phone call did not stop when she got in the car.
All the calls were from reporters I met at the press conference. Regardless of whether I was familiar with him at the time or whether I had said this sentence before, I still call him Kobayashi now.
She hung up the phone when the car was halfway to Feng's house. While waiting for the traffic light, Hang Jiabai reached back and handed her a bottle of mineral water.
The mineral water had been in the air-conditioned room for a long time and was not cold. Lin Shuyue unscrewed the bottle and drank half of it.
"I'm so thirsty." Lin Shuyue took a long breath and felt that she was finally alive.
After Hang Jiabai hung up the phone with Lin Shuyue, the line was always busy when he called Lin Shuyue. He knew that Lin Shuyue must be thirsty, so he bought a bottle of water on the roadside.
"I guessed you'd be thirsty." Hang Jiabai started the car and rushed into the traffic. "This car belongs to my senior brother. I borrowed it from him for a few days. You can drive it for the next few days. It will be convenient and safer for you to go anywhere."
Lin Shuyue had originally decided to rent a car, but she also discovered that taking the bus was indeed not very convenient. Especially when you want to go somewhere, most of the time will be wasted waiting for the bus.
"Thank you, Abai." Lin Shuyue thanked Hang Jiabai happily. Her mother, Ms. Lou, told her not to reject a man who is in love with you when he is nice to you. If you reject him too many times, he will feel that he does not need to be nice to you.
At first, he will think you are nice, but gradually he will feel annoyed because his kindness is not appreciated as it should be. Later, he will feel that you are not worthy of him being nice to him.
Lin Shuyue felt that what Lou Fengqin said was very right, and Lou Fengqin also said later that when he treats you well, you should also treat him well, and there should be feedback after your efforts. Only in this way can you stimulate him to treat you better and better.
Just like now, because of Lin Shuyue's happy words of thank you to Abai, Hang Jiabai's smile almost reached his ears.
"You're welcome." Hang Jiabai's voice was so soft that water could drip out of it.
After sending Lin Shuyue to the courtyard, the two of them went to the east and west rooms and took a nap respectively. When Lin Shuyue woke up, Hang Jiabai had already gone to school. There were two messages from Hang Jiabai on her mobile phone.
After she replied, she turned over and continued to sleep. She is not
She didn't want to know the follow-up of the case, but she was unfamiliar with the capital. She dared to say that if she went to the Public Security Bureau to inquire about the follow-up of the case, the police would definitely kick her out like a lunatic.
Thinking of this, Lin Shuyue felt that Pengcheng was still better. After all, in Pengcheng, if there was a case she was involved in, the Public Security Bureau of Pengcheng would always give her a convenient place to go.
At four o'clock, Lin Shuyue got up, washed her face, and went to the entrance of the alley to drive to pick up Hang Jiabai. After picking up Hang Jiabai, she gave up the driving seat.
Soon they arrived at the place. Zuo Xiangfeng and Zhou Xuanlai were already sitting inside, but the protagonist Xu Yu had not arrived yet.
Zhou Xuanlai also joined the criminal police team, but he was in logistics. Zhou Xuanlai was very satisfied. He had already discussed with Xu Yu that they would each treat this guest for one day. After all, Hang Jiabai has come to the capital with great difficulty, and he brought his partner with him, so we have to take good care of him and keep him company.
Lin Shuyue and Hang Jiabai had just taken off their coats and sat down when Zhou Xuan came over and poured a glass of juice for Lin Shuyue and a glass of wine for Hang Jiabai: "Xu Ao will probably be here a little late. There was a murder case on Guangchang Road a few mornings, and he went to investigate."
Lin Shuyue and Hang Jiabai looked at each other and both laughed: "What a coincidence?"
Zhou Xuan glanced at Lin Shuyue and said with a smile: "It is indeed a coincidence. Sister-in-law, you are this. In my life, what I admire most is this kind of chivalrous man who sees injustice and draws his sword to help others."
Zhou Xuanlai toasted Lin Shuyue with a glass of wine: "No, no! Brother Zhou, you don't deserve this admiration."
As the two were chatting, Xu Yu hurried in. He took off his hat, picked up the cold tea next to Zuo Xiangfeng and started drinking it.
"This is really weird. Tell me, the place where Wang Chengjian died was a dead end. It was so clean that there was not even a big stone inside. How did Wang Chengjian die?"
"If it was a revenge killing, Wang Chengjian was caught for being a hooligan in the car, so how did the people who killed him know that he would run in that direction?"
"If it was a random killing, where did the person go after the killing? We have visited the area around that alley eight hundred times today, but we haven't found any evidence."
"We have also visited Wang Chengjian's social connections, and found that he doesn't have any particularly serious enemies. His wife and children are all in his hometown, not here at all. Brothers, you were all better than me when you were in school, so hurry up and sort things out for me."
Xu Yu was worried to death. Why was this first case after joining the criminal police team going so wrong? !
Just when Xu Yu was worried, Lin Shuyue's good and evil system also joined in the fun.
