The next afternoon, when Su Huaiyuan and his companions were carrying manure, a strange man came towards them. He looked and had the temperament and appearance of a countryman.
The two parties happened to meet each other, and the strange man looked at Su Huaiyuan seriously several times.
Su Huaiyuan naturally couldn't ignore such an obvious gaze. He subconsciously glanced at the other party, and then their eyes met for a moment. However, he did not expect that the other party not only did not avoid him, but nodded to him calmly, and then walked into the production team.
"Lao Su, who is this person?!"
Cai Qingwen noticed the other person's gaze and expression, and nervously moved closer to him and asked in a low voice.
Old Feng, who was with them, looked at Su Huaiyuan with concern, his heart full of worry.
"I don't know him, but I've never seen him."
Su Huaiyuan thought about it seriously for a long time before shaking his head at the two of them with great certainty. He really didn't know this person but had never seen him before.
Cai Qingwen and Lao Feng did not know each other, at least they had never met each other in the production team.
"Could it be from the Cutting Committee?!"
After hesitating for a long time, Cai Qingwen looked back and forth before speaking to them in a low voice.
Lao Feng and Su Huaiyuan fell silent immediately, their faces becoming solemn.
I have...
"It should be. When my family and I came here, we basically met people from the county and commune cutting committees, but we didn't see this person."
Su Huaiyuan thought about it and said with certainty that he should have met all the people from the Secession Committee.
Unless... he is a newcomer or he didn't appear in front of them at first, of course he will remember it.
"Forget it, don't think too much. We have been behaving ourselves here, and we have Captain and Uncle Nine protecting us. I guess this person is not who we think he is."
In the end, Cai Qingwen made up his mind and spoke to the two of them without hesitation. What about Ran? ! What else can they do? !
Therefore, Su Huaiyuan and Lao Feng kept silent and carried the manure silently. People like them can only go with the flow and obey the arrangements of fate in this situation.
However, at this time, the three of them all knew that after this man entered the production team, he went straight to Uncle Jiu's house.
"Lian An, why did you come back suddenly?!"
Uncle Jiu looked at his son who suddenly appeared at the door in surprise, and asked hurriedly while pouring him some water.
"Dad, there's a case in our county. I took some time to come back and tell you so that you'd better pay attention."
Bai Lian'an took the bowl of water handed over by his father, poured it into his mouth, drank it in one breath, and then explained why he came back suddenly.
"What case?! Why didn't I hear about it when I went there a few days ago?!"
Uncle Jiu's eyebrows jumped immediately and he started to ask quickly. It must be an ordinary little thing for his son to come back specially to tell them.
"Dad, when you went there a few days ago, the case had not been discovered yet. It was not until the afternoon before yesterday that someone came to the county public security bureau to report that several bodies were found in the forest on Yashan Mountain in the county seat. That's when we discovered the case."
Bai Lian'an began to tell Uncle Jiu about the case in detail. After all, it was for this that he rushed back in a hurry.
"All the dead were female comrades, and almost all of them were young female comrades. There were only female educated youth and young girls from various communes, all of whom were harmed by the communes and then killed."
"There is a victim in our commune, a female educated youth from the Lingshui production team. We came here today to investigate, and I took the time to come and tell you right after we finished. Dad, please notify the nearby production teams to pay more attention. Girls must not go out alone, whether it is night or day, and must not go out casually."
"Even if you are going out, the more people you go, the better, and don't go with strangers. Even if it's a stranger or an acquaintance, it's best to go alone. Now, we have ruled out the possibility that the crime was committed by an acquaintance."
Bai Lian'an thought of the young victims at the scene, and he couldn't help sighing, but at the same time he felt extremely angry. There was a fire burning in my heart, and I hated it so much that I wanted to cut the murderer into pieces.
Uncle Jiu held back his breath after hearing this. He had lived before liberation, but he had never heard of or seen such horrifying things.
"Let's go find Lianshan, and then we'll send someone to take you to the commune, so you can catch the last bus back to the county."
The murderer has not been caught yet. We know what kind of person he is. He will definitely continue to commit crimes. Who will be his next target? ! They didn't know this, so they just protected the female comrades in the production team first.
Uncle Jiu felt that the matter was very serious and said that he would take his son to find Bai Lianshan immediately.
"Lian An, how come you, such a busy man, have time to come back?! Uncle Jiu is here and we are taking good care of him."
Bai Lianshan saw his cousin appear in the production team from afar, and was surprised and delighted, and even made a joke about him.
"Brother Lianshan, I have a case to handle. I happened to be nearby, so I hurried back to tell you that I'm leaving soon."
Bai Lian'an smiled at his cousin, then immediately repeated with a serious face what he had just said to his father.
"Lian An, wait a minute. I'll find a car to take you to the commune right away."
Bai Lianshan was shocked after hearing this, he really never expected that his cousin would come back and tell them such a terrible thing. After he calmed down quickly, he immediately sent someone to the team headquarters to get a bicycle to send Bai Lian'an back to the commune.
Afterwards, he and Uncle Jiu walked the person out for a long distance until they saw the person again.
"Lianshan, it looks like we need to buy two more bicycles. It's a pity we don't have a tractor, or it would be faster to drive a tractor."
"Uncle Jiu, we'll do this tomorrow. But let's just take one for now. It would be too conspicuous to take two at once."
Bai Lianshan considered Uncle Jiu's suggestion and decided to keep a low profile. They were short of bicycle tickets, but they wanted to show off their wealth, so they decided to get another one in two months.
Uncle Jiu lowered his head and thought about it. He felt that what he said was right, so he didn't say much.
"From today on, any female comrades in the production team must leave the production team and ask their families to pay attention. If any strangers come, they must report to the team headquarters."
"Even if it was a relative who reported it, Lian An said that he would rule out the possibility of an acquaintance committing the crime. We must not ignore any place and let the female comrades in our production team be harmed."
The two men talked about various plans as they walked, and immediately called people to find the team cadres and the respected old men to hold a meeting at the team headquarters.
On the other side, Qiao Jiuru in the field looked at the man going away, feeling deeply moved. I didn't expect to see him here so early after a lifetime.
