The driver gave a brief description, and Sheng Anning and Zhou Chaoyang thought of Zhou Luancheng at the same time.
Sheng An Ning found it incredible: "Is your second brother on a business trip with Mu Xiaowan?"
Zhou Chaoyang shook his head: "I don't know either. My second brother said he was on a business trip, but he didn't say where he was going."
Sheng Anning thought for a moment and took out a palm-sized diary from her bag. She took out a photo from the cover. It was a photo of her and Zhou Shixun holding their three children.
He handed it to the driver and pointed at Zhou Shixun: "Look, does the man that girl is following look like this?" The driver stared at the photo for a while, his eyes suddenly became strange, and he had already imagined a big drama in his mind.
Looking at the relationship between the girl and the man, it seemed like they were dating. They even slept leaning against each other in the car.
I didn’t expect that the man was already married and had three children!
Sheng An Ning was a little anxious when she saw that he didn't speak: "Take a good look, is this the person?"
The driver nodded reluctantly: "That's him, but after getting off the bus halfway, I don't know where they went."
I was sighing in my heart that the man was so lucky. He married a beautiful wife but didn't know how to cherish her. The wild food he found outside was also very good.
Sheng An Ning didn't have time to study the driver's unpredictable behavior. With a sympathetic look, she confirmed that Zhou Luancheng and Mu Xiaowan were together. She was relieved and said to Zhou Chaoyang, "Let's go back first. Your second brother and Xiaowan are together, so they shouldn't be in danger."
After Zhou Shixun got off work, he fell silent after hearing what Sheng Anning and Zhou Chaoyang said.
If Zhou Luancheng and Mu Xiaowan were together, that would be the most worrying thing.
First of all, Sheng Anning's dream was half fulfilled. Although it was not certain whether Mu Xiaowan had been in trouble, it could prove one thing: Mu Xiaowan was not safely with her teachers and classmates.
While being with Zhou Luancheng, I encountered another inexplicable corpse.
He will not neglect Zhou Luancheng's duties, so Zhou Luancheng's situation is not necessarily absolutely safe.
Although Zhou Shixun was not very familiar with Beijing City and its surrounding areas, he was familiar with the situation in Nanshan Town and several nearby towns.
It is not far from the capital, and is considered to be at the feet of the emperor, but the conditions are extremely harsh.
Because the area is surrounded by mountains on three sides and some towns are in the valleys, it is not easy to get out.
He knew too well that poor and remote areas would produce unruly people, so could Zhou Luancheng handle it?
Seeing that Zhou Shixun didn't speak for a long time, but frowned, Sheng Anning also became worried: "Do you think it's not safe for Luancheng and Xiaowan to be together?"
Zhou Shixun shook his head: "It's hard to say, I'll take two days off and go take a look."
He certainly wouldn't let Sheng An Ning take risks, nor could he watch her stay at home anxiously worrying about Mu Xiaowan, so it would be better for him to go there in person.
Sheng An Ning also wanted to go, but she knew that if she went with them, the three children would not be able to see their father and their mother, and they would definitely make a fuss at home.
He could only nod and ask Zhou Shixun to be more careful: "If you find anything, remember to call me back."
Zhong Wenqing felt distressed when he heard this: "Why is there something wrong with Luancheng? Should we tell their unit?"
Zhou Shixun shook his head: "Luancheng is out for work, and we don't know what the situation is yet. We can't bother the people in his unit, and we can't waste police force."
Zhong Wenqing was even more confused: "You have to be careful. If you can find Luancheng, remember to report to your family that you are safe."
Seeing that Zhong Wenqing was really scared, Sheng Anning quickly comforted her, "Mom, don't worry, it will be fine for Shi Xun to go, and besides, we went there because we were worried, not because we knew what happened to Luancheng. Maybe when Shi Xun goes, Luancheng and Xiaowan will be fine."
Zhong Wenqing clasped his hands together and chanted "Amitabha" continuously.
…
Zhou Luancheng was not in a hurry to go back to Shijia Village. Instead, he visited the villages near Shijia Village and chatted about local affairs under the pretext of investigating an old case.
The old case he was talking about actually happened ten years ago, and it was also the real purpose of his coming out to handle the case this time.
A young man died mysteriously and was later found on the top of a mountain. It was said that he was killed by a landmine on the mountain.
I don’t know how the local authorities resolved the case. After hastily closing the case, they ordered the man’s family to bury him quickly.
The man’s family has always felt that their son died unjustly, and has been trying to find ways to appeal for justice over the years. However, it was difficult to leave the village in the past few years, so they had to endure the suffering.
In the past two years, I was able to go out. When I didn’t get a response in the town, I went straight to the city to appeal for justice.
In the end, the case fell to Zhou Luancheng's team.
The villagers recalled what happened in the past and now they also felt it was a little strange: "We have always been at odds with Shijia Village. We are downstream, and they often block the water outlet upstream to prevent us from watering. And the top of the mountain is also half of our village. If we dare to cross the boundary, the young laborers in their village will come out to fight angrily."
Pointing to the ridge in the distance, he said, "Look at that ridge. We haven't dared to go over there in recent years. Shijia Village is a big village with many people. They are all relatives and are very united."
Zhou Luancheng stared at the mountains in the distance. Who would have thought that a mere production team could have such great ability to guard a mountain so tightly? So there must be some shameful secrets hidden in the mountains.
"What treasures are there in the mountains that we can't even pass through?"
The villagers shook their heads and said, "Let alone passing by, even if you just glanced at them for a second, people would think you stole some oil from their fields. Anyway, the girls and boys in our village won't date anyone from Shijia Village."
Zhou Luancheng linked the young man's death to the Shi family, and considering Shi Tianliang's behavior, he believed that there must be some shocking secret hidden in this mountain.
The kind that knows it will die!
The villagers knew that Zhou Shixun was a police officer and came from Beijing. They complained endlessly: "The people in Shijia Village are too bad. If our children secretly went to the mountains to play, they would be tied to trees and punished if they were discovered. They also said that the children destroyed the forests they worked so hard to plant."
Zhou Luancheng was a little confused: "After so many years, aren't you curious about the secrets inside?"
The villagers sighed, "What's the use of being curious? Even if we can't afford to offend this bully, we can always hide from him. We should stay away from him and live our lives peacefully."
Zhou Luancheng frowned. He had previously thought that Shi Tianliang was just a village bully, and that he had some official airs because he was the village secretary. He had never expected that he could actually dominate an entire area!
Still so arrogant.
Suddenly I became aware of one thing. Since Shi Tianliang was able to intimidate the villagers next door, it meant that he was very wary of what he was doing.
In that case, how could he let them leave easily after he and Mu Xiaowan were discovered!
Thinking of Xiao Wan who left by car in the morning, Zhou Luancheng's heart skipped a beat. He stood up and hurriedly said goodbye to the villagers, then walked towards the town...
