"That's no problem at all," Qi Yasheng readily agreed. "Don't worry, I'll take care of everything for you, including the letter of introduction, food coupons, and accommodation!"
...
The Qi family left early the next morning.
After seeing everyone off, Su Ruyi and Cheng Weiguo began packing their luggage.
The "fishing" drama at the retirement home has finally come to a complete end.
Lan Jun and the people behind her were exposed, but Qi Yuan also lost his life here by a twist of fate.
Su Ruyi felt heavy-hearted.
Qi Yuan was a wise old man, yet he died on the verge of recovery in such an absurd way.
Su Ruyi's heart as a doctor is deeply regrettable.
Unfortunately, Qi Yuan had been dead for too long, and even though she had the chance to be resurrected from the Book of Merit, she couldn't use it on him.
It can only be said that it was fate.
What worries Su Ruyi even more is that Xia Tianxiu has not been exposed and has even managed to get close to Qi Zhao, the powerful figure from her previous life.
Su Ruyi made a decision—she would go to Beijing as soon as possible. Even if she couldn't find a way to deliver a fatal blow to Xia Tianxiu, she would find the real Qiao Tianyue and reveal the truth to the Qiao family.
However, just as Su Ruyi, along with Su Qiushi, Li Wang, and Shen Ji, dragged their luggage out of the retirement home, a staff member rushed out, shouting, "Dr. Su, your phone call! It's from Haicheng! Your fourth brother!"
Su Ruyi's heart skipped a beat.
Su Tong has been back for over a month since he was sent on a business trip by Su Xiangjun.
She also received four letters, and everything was fine.
Why did you suddenly call?
Su Ruyi hurriedly returned to the reception desk and grabbed the microphone that was upside down on the table: "Hello! Fourth Brother?"
Su Tong's voice was neither flustered nor joyful: "Ruyi, I have good news for you—your fourth brother is getting married."
With a "crack," the microphone in Su Ruyi's hand slipped and fell to the ground.
The last time someone told her they were getting married was when it was Fifth Brother and that horrible woman, Ding Xiuping.
Could it be... that Fourth Brother is going to fall victim too?
Su Ruyi hurriedly picked up the microphone: "Fourth Brother, who are you going to marry?"
"Keep it a secret for now, Fourth Brother is waiting to give you a surprise!" Su Tong's voice sounded like he was forcing a smile. "Ruyi, can you take some time off to come back? The wedding is next Sunday. Fourth Brother hopes you can be there."
"Fourth Brother, don't be so surprised! Tell me quickly, who are you going to marry? Is it voluntary or forced?!" Su Ruyi was extremely anxious.
“Of course it’s voluntary. Ruyi, you know Fourth Brother’s wife, you’ll know when you get back.” Su Tong’s voice trembled slightly, but he remained calm.
Is Fourth Brother shy or excited?
Su Ruyi felt a little relieved.
Fourth Brother has always been a reliable person, and by all accounts, he has indeed reached the age to get married.
His heart disease had long since healed, and he had no problems getting married and having children.
However, the two siblings correspond every week, so why didn't the fourth brother mention the bride at all?
Fourth Brother said he knew him too?
Who could it be?
Su Ruyi thought for a long time, but still couldn't come up with a solution.
She originally planned to go back to Dingjiatun to settle Su Qiushi in before heading to Beijing.
But right now, she has to go back to Haicheng first.
Su Ruyi approached Su Qiushi and said, "Grandpa, I might have to go back to Haicheng first—my fourth brother is getting married!"
Su Qiushi was overjoyed: "This is a good thing, it's only right."
Then, his face stiffened again—Haicheng was a place of sorrow for him, where his family was destroyed, and his son and daughter were both parents who had to bury their children.
Not to mention his daughter-in-law who sees him as a thorn in her side.
"Ruyi, how about Grandpa stays at Huichuntang and doesn't go out anymore?" He cautiously discussed with Su Ruyi. "That way, you won't have to send me back to Dingjiatun. I can read books every day and cook for you!"
This was naturally good for Su Ruyi, but she was still a little worried about Jin Xingqiu being alone in the village.
After changing her itinerary, Su Ruyi called Qi Yasheng to explain, which took up a lot of time.
Li Wang and Shen Ji have already returned to Dingjiatun together.
Su Ruyi immediately decided to travel from Bingcheng to Haicheng by train.
Therefore, she called the brigade headquarters again, wanting to ask Ding Youliang Duoduo to take care of Jin Xingqiu.
Unexpectedly, Ding Youliang clicked his tongue after hearing her words and said, "That woman has already broken the heads of several hooligans recently. Now, all the idle men in the village avoid your yard when they go out!"
Su Ruyi was very surprised.
I thought Jin Xingqiu hit Ding Silai because she was so angry that it was a once-in-a-lifetime event. But it turns out that this was the only time she ever did it!
How could Su Ruyi have imagined that Jin Xingqiu, who had experienced a brush with death, had already seen through everything?
Just today, Jin Xingqiu chased away a bachelor who wanted to take advantage of her. The bachelor's wailing and howling echoed throughout the village, greatly shocking the entire Dingjiatun.
The villagers even gave Jin Xingqiu the nickname "Golden Tiger".
Seeing that Su Ruyi seemed unconvinced, Ding Youliang directly summoned Jin Xingqiu.
Jin Xingqiu casually recounted how she had driven the people away and told Su Ruyi that she would guard her elder brother's courtyard and wait for her to return.
Su Ruyi felt relieved.
Chief Cheng sent Xiao Sun to take her and Su Qiushi to the Harbin Railway Station.
Finding a sheltered spot, Su Ruyi directly put Su Qiushi into her spatial storage.
Then, she took out the blank letter of introduction that Ding Youliang had given her, filled it out, and went to the ticket window when she heard a panting voice behind her:
"Comrade Su Ruyi!"
The voice was like a booming bell, and when Su Ruyi was called out by her full name, she felt her scalp tingle.
Turning around, she saw a middle-aged man striding towards her.
This person looks familiar.
Su Ruyi recalled again—she remembered, it was Lian Xun, the big boss of the Heilongjiang Provincial Public Security Bureau!
The day they were all arrested happened to be the day a big shot came to Dingjiatun to investigate the Ding Daguo case!
Seeing that the little girl was pale with fright, Lian Xun quickly forced a smile: "Comrade Su, are you not busy right now?"
Su Ruyi: Do I look like I'm not busy?
She put the bag slung over her elbow on the ground and put the letter of introduction back in her pocket: "Sir, what can I do for you?"
"That's right, the several missing persons cases in Dingjiatun have now been combined and are being handled together."
As Lian Xun spoke, he opened a stack of case files, “This case involves the disappearance of Ding Daguo’s nine family members, the disappearance of educated youth Jiang Aiguo, and the disappearance of educated youth Zhong Misu!”
The three cases were very similar in nature, so they were investigated together.
Our investigation revealed that you, Comrade Su, are involved in all three cases.
So, we'd like to ask you to come back with us to investigate—don't worry, we'll compensate you for lost wages.
