Chapter 173 (Two in One)
Lin Shuyue was sitting on the bed, her black hair falling to her waist and a little messy.
This newspaper was published in 2014. The story begins with the police cracking down on a pornographic website with an IP address overseas. The website was filled with a large number of violent and bloody videos of abuse of women or men.
As the police investigation deepened, the capital police randomly solved one homicide case in 2002, two in 2004, and three in 2005.
However, the solving of these three cases was just the beginning. Later, according to the other videos on the website, police across the country solved more than 30 rape cases, of which more than 20 were murders.
This case attracted widespread attention in society from the very beginning. The case was investigated for 4 months. After 4 months, the case was heard in the Capital High Procuratorate. Except for the three people who were killed due to conflicts of interest, the remaining 57 people, including the founder, were interrogated.
Because their criminal facts were clear and the evidence was conclusive, they were sentenced to death and executed immediately.
At the end of the newspaper was a list of victims that the police had identified, and Fu Sisi and Ruan Tinglan were among them.
Lin Shuyue was slightly stunned.
At this moment, a system pop-up window popped up: [Would the host like to spend 20 points to view Ruan Tinglan and Fu Sisi’s life history (murder chapter)? 】
Lin Shuyue paused and chose to check.
The light screen was divided into two parts, one showing Ruan Tinglan's life resume, and the other showing Fu Sisi's. Lin Shuyue looked at Ruan Tinglan's first.
In 2005, Ruan Dinhlan was targeted by Wang Chengjian. After being followed several times, Ruan Dinhlan was knocked unconscious by Wang Chengjian late one night and taken to an air-raid shelter in the suburbs.
Ruan Dinhlan was tortured by Wang Chengjian in the air-raid shelter for three months and was brutally murdered at the end of February 2005.
She was one of the suspects in a 2005 murder case uncovered by Metropolitan Police.
Lin Shuyue breathed a sigh of relief. She was extremely grateful that she had stopped Wang Chengjian's lewd behavior on the bus a few days ago. She was even more grateful that there was a Lou Zhou in the organization Meirutianxia. He did a good thing and killed Wang Chengjian directly!
Lin Shuyue went to read Fu Sisi's life story, where she was murdered.
Fu Sisi also died in 2005, but she lived a little longer than Ruan Tinglan. Gu Pengfei had no feelings for her, but was very interested in her money. He secretly filmed various videos with Fu Sisi and spent money from her.
At that time, the Fu family was so short of funds that they were at the end of their rope. Fu Sisi finally realized the importance of the matter, and she finally agreed to the marriage with the Zhang family.
But the man she was engaged to was a psychopath, and she was taken away on the day of the engagement. As her parents, Fu Shucheng and Lu Minxing did not stop her.
Fu Sisi's fiancé Zhang Qin does not have a strong male ability, and he likes to visit H-porn websites the most. Meirutianxia is quite famous abroad, and Zhang Qin saw Fu Sisi when he was browsing the website daily.
After going to great lengths to get engaged to Fu Sisi, his favorite thing to do was to torture Fu Sisi using all sorts of means.
Fu Sisi lived in dire straits all day long. Gu Pengfei did not let her go and blackmailed her with their intimate video. She finally died at Gu Pengfei's hands.
Her death made Zhang Qin very dissatisfied with the Fu family. The funds that were injected into the Fu family because of the marriage were withdrawn. The industry that had just been revived by the Fu family collapsed directly. The previous suppliers blocked their homes to demand money, and the goods in the factory were snatched away because they could not pay wages.
Three months after Fu Sisi's death, Fu Shucheng jumped off a building and died. It was not until now that everyone knew that Fu Shucheng had taken high-interest loans to gamble.
Lu Minxing is still alive and well, but her family has long since fallen into decline. The Fu family's assets have been auctioned off or confiscated, and she has spent the rest of her life becoming the lowest person she once looked down upon.
She couldn't stand it anymore and married a man, who beat her every other day.
After seeing the ending of Fu Sisi's family, Lin Shuyue turned off the system screen and sent a message to Ruan Tinglan.
Ruan Tinglan didn't reply to the message, but called directly: "Last night, a sister from the store next to us told me that there was a strange woman yesterday. Not only did she look at me for a long time, but she also asked a lot of questions about me."
"I guessed that person was Lu Minxing right away. I submitted my resignation to the store manager today. I have two big orders in my hand, and our store manager is coveting them. As soon as I said I wanted to resign, she agreed immediately."
"I just received my salary for last month, and I'm ready to run away now. I have nothing to do with the Fu family, so why should I go into the fire pit for them?"
Ruan Tinglan is single and has no worries. Her parents are in a cemetery in the capital. She is very familiar with the cemetery manager, and even if she is not there, he will help her sweep the grave.
She planned to leave the capital for a while to avoid the limelight, and then come back after the Fu family's affairs were settled.
Lin Shuyue smiled when she heard her say this: "It's better for her to leave. I just heard that Fu Sisi's father borrowed money from loan sharks and gambled away the money. They are in urgent need of funds. Selling their daughter is the best way."
"I know. I'm not stupid. If I go back with them, I'm afraid I'll have to suffer before I can enjoy the blessings. I've finally seen through their so-called wealthy families. They're all cannibalistic places. I can't handle it if I go back here because I grew up there. And those people definitely value birth and upbringing, which I don't have. I don't know how I'll live then."
"Damn, this family is nothing. They just treat me like an idiot. I'm running away." Ruan Tinglan didn't tell Lin Shuyue where she was going. She just said that she would contact her after she was settled.
Lin Shuyue said OK and hung up the phone.
After that, she packed up the things that were scattered over the past few days. Today, Friday, they were setting off for Saihanba.
When Lin Shuyue packed her things and went out for lunch, Aunt Zhao was particularly reluctant to let her go. After just a few days of getting along, Aunt Zhao felt that Lin Shuyue was a really good girl and very likable.

She stewed a fish, which was braised in sauce and added tofu. It was the first time that Lin Shuyue ate fish cooked in this way. She found it fresh and ate more.
"Xiao Lin, next time you come to the capital, stay here too. I'll cook a few more of my signature dishes for you."
Lin Shuyue soaked the rice in fish soup, added a spoonful of chili sauce fried by Aunt Zhao, and ate it up. Hearing what Aunt Zhao said, Lin Shuyue touched her face and said, "Aunt, you see I have gained weight in the past few days. How fat will I be if I eat more?"
Winter is a good season for gaining weight, and winter in the north is even more suitable.
Since the day Lin Shuyue arrived in the capital, she has been eating well and going to bed after meals because she doesn't want to go anywhere because it's cold.
Lin Shuyue felt that she had gained at least three kilograms in the past few days. When she looked in the mirror this morning, she felt that her face had become rounder.
Aunt Zhao took a close look at Lin Shuyue and said, "Where is she fat? Not at all. Besides, it's better for women to be a little fatter. It's healthier."
In the eyes of Aunt Zhao and her generation, fat people are blessed, and she likes chubby little girls.
Lin Shuyue did not argue with Aunt Zhao, but said that if her mother knew that she had gained weight, she would have to thank Aunt Zhao especially.
Aunt Zhao smiled so hard that her teeth were showing. If Lin Shuyue hadn't been full, she would have stood up and cooked two more dishes for her.
Lin Shuyue was amused by Aunt Zhao and laughed. After she finished laughing, she glanced at the east wing and asked Aunt Zhao, "Why hasn't she come out yet?"
Aunt Zhao was delighted: "He is still smelling. We even brought him food, but he just doesn't want to go out. I guess he will come out after you leave."⑥
For a young man in his prime to admit in front of a single woman that he looked at HS websites was undoubtedly a social death for Zhu Shuliang, who was already thin-skinned.
These past two days, when Zhu Shuliang saw Lin Shuyue, he ran away with a red face as if he had seen a ferocious beast.
Lin Shuyue thought it was quite amusing, but she didn't go any closer. In the afternoon, she went to the vegetable market with Aunt Zhao and took a group photo of the capital's people's vegetable market in winter.
When they came back, Hang Jiabai had already arrived. In order not to waste time, the two of them took their things and left. Aunt Zhao stuffed the apples she bought into Lin Shuyue's hands and walked her to the main road. She waited until their car was out of sight before going back.
It was already past three in the afternoon, and it would take more than six hours to reach Mulan County. Because the roads were slippery and the weather was cold in winter, it would be at least ten o'clock tonight when we arrived in Mulan County.
Along the way, Lin Shuyue and Hang Jiabai chatted. It seemed like they had endless things to say. After several hours' journey, they didn't feel tired at all.
At six o'clock, it was already dark, and Lin Shuyue received a call from Li Mingfang.
After a few pleasantries, Li Mingfang brought up Li Weisheng. Calculating the time, it had been more than half a month since he left. Although he sent text messages every day to report his safety, she was still very worried.
Lin Shuyue now checks Li Weisheng's text messages every day. She comforts Li Mingfang: "It's almost been a month. He should be back soon."
Li Mingfang sighed, "I know that, but I just can't let it go. Do you think it would have been better if I had stopped him from going?"
Before Lin Shuyue could speak, Li Mingfang said, "Forget it, forget it. If I could go back in time, I still wouldn't stop him. He wants to be an eagle in the sky, why should I clip his wings?"
Lin Shuyue glanced at Hang Jiabai and said, "You know the answer yourself, but you still ask me? Just wait patiently."
"What else can we do if we don't wait?" Li Mingfang should have returned to the Xijiang Apartment where she lived. Lin Shuyue heard the sound of her closing the door.
"My mother has been asking me these days whether I have broken up with Asheng. I said no, but she still doesn't believe me." Li Mingfang usually sends messages to Lin Shuyue, but today she couldn't hold it in any longer, so she called Lin Shuyue.
"When will you come back? If you don't come back, I feel that life will be much more difficult!"
"Soon, we'll be back in a few days." Lin Shuyue chatted with Li Mingfang for more than half an hour.
After hanging up the phone, they also arrived in Rehe area. Hang Jiabai asked: "There is a place to eat and go to the toilet ahead."
Lin Shuyue had already seen the huge neon sign in front of her that said "Add water before eating". She said, "Let's stop to use the toilet and eat. I'll drive a little further and let you take over. You must be very tired from the whole journey."
"Okay." Hang Jiabai always listened to Lin Shuyue. He turned the car into the restaurant.
It's very simple here, with a large shed as the hall and a small shop on the left that sells bread, drinks and instant noodles. There's a counter on the wall on the other side with today's menu written on the side of the counter. Anyone who wants to eat can go and get it. The prices are not cheap, more than half more than outside.
A bottle of the simplest mineral water can be sold for a high price of one dollar and fifty cents here! Not to mention things like instant noodles that can fill the stomach, a box costs four or five yuan, the price is comparable to that of later generations. Lin Shuyue was extremely glad that she brought instant noodles. Even in a place like the capital, you can buy three boxes of instant noodles for five yuan.
There was no stove in the hall and the door was not closed. Lin Shuyue saw someone go to get food, but it was frozen after just a few bites. A layer of white lard had solidified on it, and it looked unappetizing.
"Let's have some instant noodles." At least instant noodles are made with hot water, so they don't get cold so easily.
The wind was blowing hard. Hang Jiabai said:
"Okay, I'll soak here for a while and we'll eat in the car. It'll be warmer in the car."
Lin Shuyue made an OK gesture to Hang Jiabai and went to the toilet next door.
When turning the corner, Lin Shuyue heard Hang Jiabai asking about hot water for instant noodles. The waitress said, "You want two boxes of instant noodles? Hot water costs one dollar."
Lin Shuyue couldn't hear Hang Jiabai's answer because she had already gone to the toilet. At that time, all toilets were dry toilets. The stench was carried into Lin Shuyue's nose by the wind, and she held her breath. A woman in a military coat was sitting by the fire at the door of the toilet, with a stack of money in her hand. The woman in front of Lin Shuyue took out fifty cents from her pocket, took a piece of paper, and walked inside muttering.
Lin Shuyue also followed the crowd and paid 50 cents. Paying to use the toilet is a practice that happens all over the country, and Lin Shuyue has gotten used to it. She came out in a hurry. Hang Jiabai had already prepared the instant noodles and put them in the car. She got in the car and Hang Jiabai got out and headed towards the toilet.
After he came back, the two of them ate instant noodles in the air-conditioned car, and then Lin Shuyue drove and continued towards Mulan County.
Not long after they started walking, the bus that had just parked on the side of the road caught up with them. Their final destination was Rehe, so Lin Shuyue followed behind it and arrived in Rehe. The last section of the journey was driven by Hang Jiabai.
Lin Shuyue was sitting in the passenger seat and fell asleep unknowingly. It didn't seem like she had slept for long when she was woken up by Hang Jiabai.
"Are we there yet?" Lin Shuyue yawned and looked outside. They were already in the courtyard of Mulan Hotel. The dim street lights illuminated their car, and through the glass door of the hotel, the hall was very warm.
Looking at the time, it was eleven o'clock, more than half an hour later than they expected, but that was normal. It had just snowed in Mulan County and the ground was very slippery, so they had to walk slowly.
"We're here." Hang Jiabai turned off the engine and said, "Wait a while in the car before getting off. You just woke up and got off so quickly. Don't get excited by the wind."
Seeing Lin Shuyue nod, Hang Jiabai walked around to the back of the car, opened the trunk, and took out toiletries for both of them.
He closed the trunk and Lin Shuyue got out. As soon as she got out of the car, she shivered. Hang Jiabai took her hand and led her into the hotel.
It was indeed warm inside the hotel. As soon as I entered, a wave of heat hit me in the face.
Hang Jiabai booked two adjacent rooms. When Lin Shuyue arrived at the room, she washed her face, lay down on the bed and fell asleep.
The next day, they both got up very early. There was a breakfast shop outside the hotel. Lin Shuyue had no appetite and could not eat anymore after eating an egg, a bowl of millet porridge and a cabbage bun.
Hang Jiabai ate a tray of steamed dumplings and a bowl of tofu pudding.
After eating and drinking, the two got in the car and drove towards Saihanba.
The weather is very good today, and the sky is blue without a trace of impurities. There was still a lot of unmelted snow on the top of the mountain, and Lin Shuyue took many photos.
The car drove northward, the road became worse and worse, the road sides became more and more desolate, there was no green at all, only yellow earth all over the sky. A gust of wind blew, and the yellow earth was all over the sky.
The two set out at eight o'clock, and when they saw the forest farm where Hang Jiabai's parents were, it was already past ten o'clock. Two figures in military coats were standing at the gate of the forest farm.
Hang Jiabai smiled and said, "That's my father and my mother."
Before leaving, Hang Jiabai called his parents using the hotel phone.
The moment Hang Jiabai finished speaking, the two people at the gate of the forest farm walked towards Lin Shuyue and the others at the same time.
Hang Jiabai stopped the car, Lin Shuyue opened the door and got out, and Hang Jiabai's mother Yin Xin held Lin Shuyue's hand.
"You must be tired after the journey. The meal is ready at home. Your uncle went downstairs to buy some big bones and stewed some wild vegetables." Yin Xin spoke in Cantonese, but after leaving Guangzhou for many years, her accent has become less similar.
She looked very similar to Hang Jiabai, but she looked much older, with two red streaks on her cheeks caused by the wind.
"Everything is fine, everything is fine." Lin Shuyue responded and was pulled inside by Yin Xin.
This is where the forestry staff live. It is surrounded by neatly arranged houses, some of which are emitting smoke.
Under the guidance of his father Hang Yuhua, Hang Jiabai parked the car in a specially designated parking lot in the forest area. Yin Xin was asking Lin Shuyue about the journey, and the two talked about this in a low voice.
After walking a few more steps, someone asked Yin Xin a question, and Yin Xin chatted with them in Mandarin with a clear local accent.
Lin Shuyue was standing nearby and also heard a few words, all of which were just everyday conversations. Afraid that Lin Shuyue would feel cold, Yin Xin didn't stay for long.
Yin Xin and Hang Yuhua were the first group of people to arrive at the forest farm. Their house was at the very back, with a total of four large tiled houses, just like all the other houses here.
There are two stoves as soon as you enter the door. Inside the stoves is a set of wooden sofas, and in the middle of the sofas is a coffee table.
There was a stove burning in the room and it was warm. Yin Xin took Lin Shuyue to the west room and said to her as they walked: "That sofa set has been there for more than ten years. It was made by your uncle, Abai and his brother."
"It's done very well." Lin Shuyue took a quick look. The sofa was coated with a layer of varnish and had a blue sponge cushion on top. If this were placed in later generations, it would be the original wood style that many people pursue.
Yin Xin's smile became even brighter. "Abai's brother is out on patrol. He won't be back until the evening. Take off your clothes and put them on the kang. I'll go get the food."
Yin Xin went out after she finished speaking. Lin Shuyue took off her military coat and the cotton-padded jacket underneath, and went out wearing only a red sweater. Hang Jiabai also came into the house carrying the things he had bought for his parents in the county town.
On the coffee table in the living room, there was a basin of large bones with ferns inside, and a plate of stir-fried mushrooms with green peppers next to it.
According to Yin Xin, the ferns and mushrooms were all picked, dried and stored by themselves. These dried vegetables are their main source of vegetables in winter.
The stewed big bones were delicious, and the ferns inside were even more amazing, but before I finished my bowl of rice, a scream was heard outside.
The scream resounded through the sky. Hang Yuhua stood up suddenly, picked up the gun beside the sofa and went out.
Yin Xin also stood up and walked towards the east room. Before leaving, she said to Lin Shuyue, "Ayue, you wait at home. Let's go out and take a look. Is there a wolf coming? Abai, you watch over Ayue."
