Chapter 146
Zhang You was stunned, and Chen He, who leaned over to answer the phone, was also stunned.
Zhang You's tears welled up: "Zhou Zhengzheng, what do you mean?"
Zhou Zhengzheng sighed deeply: "Let Chen He answer the phone."
Chen He hurriedly snatched the phone away: "Zheng Zheng..."
"Chen He." Zhou Zhengzheng's voice was low and hoarse. "Master said at the last moment that he saw that you were deceiving him. He couldn't understand why sincerity couldn't be exchanged for sincerity."
Chen He was stunned and couldn't react.
Chang Ting is a very annoying person sometimes. He is not polite to anyone and offends everyone, no matter their status or identity.
But after getting to know him more, you will realize that although this person looks careless, he is actually as sharp as a cheetah.
Beneath the reckless surface, there is always a kind heart.
How could such a lively person, who had the most noticeable presence wherever he went, just disappear like that?
Chen He's eyes were red and it felt unreal.
She thought blankly: If I hadn't concealed it, Chang Ting might not have had to run around so much, and nothing would have happened.
Zhang You was already sobbing.
Guilt drilled into his chest like a needle, and Chen He blurted out, "I'm sorry."
Zhou Zhengzheng sighed sadly: "Well, can we tell you now?"
Chen He's voice was choked with sobs: "I received two private messages from Qiu Yue on Weibo..."
"Ha!" a voice suddenly shouted from the receiver. "I knew it!"
It was Chang Ting's powerful voice.
Chen He's mind went blank for a moment, and then he fell silent.
I fell into a trap. It was all because I trusted Zhou Zhengzheng too much. Zhou Zhengzheng learned the bad habits from Chang Ting.
Zhang You raised his tear-stained face, stunned. After a long moment, he howled, "Brother Chang! I'm going to beat you up when we meet!"
I was so angry that I ran outside and cried.
Zhou Zhengzheng's voice rang out again: "I'm sorry, Chen He. It was Master who asked me to act with him.
"His car's snow chains weren't working properly, and he crashed into a tree. He was fine, but his phone flew out and hit the windshield, breaking it."
Chang Ting's voice forcefully intervened, having apparently snatched Zhou Zhengzheng's phone. "Did you lose, Teacher Chen? Are you convinced, Teacher Chen?"
Listening to the proud tone in his voice, one can imagine his facial features flying up to the sky.
Chen He took a deep breath and said in a sinister voice, "Officer Chang, what is the sentence for assaulting a police officer?"
Chang Ting calmed down immediately: "Let's talk business..."
Having fallen into the trap, Chen He could no longer hide it.
However, even if Chang Ting didn't have to pretend to be dead, she originally planned to confess.
Because the time when Fu Weiru appeared in Lan Zhou coincided with the time when Song Zhou disappeared, this was by no means a coincidence.
She smelled a trap.
She was no longer sure whether Song Zhou's disappearance was active or passive.
She had thought it through clearly. Whether it was to stop Song Zhou from impulsively doing something illegal or to rescue him, cooperating with the police was the wise choice.
After hearing her confession, Chang Ting said, "I understand. It's not a big deal, is it that serious? Zhou Zhengzheng and I are almost at the location where Qiu Yue's phone was located. Let's go over and take a look at the situation first.
"If I can catch Song Zhou, I'll tie him up and bring him back to you."
The implication of this statement is that it will stop Song Zhou from doing stupid things.
Chen He said sincerely: "Thank you."
"Come on, I'll be thankful if you don't attack the police."
Then, Zhang You, who came back with red eyes after crying, took the phone and reported the process of questioning Wei Ru.
Zhang You concluded, "Our guess is consistent with Fu Weiru's statement. Zhu Zangmo and Xing Yao are likely father and son."
"We have to do a DNA test to confirm it," Chang Ting said amid the noise of the traffic. "This is a brilliant move on their part, putting all the blame on the deceased Xing Yao, and there's no evidence to prove it.
"It's similar to what happened when Xing Yao pushed the blame onto Xu Candong. The team's work style is very unified."
Chen He leaned over to the phone and listened in, interjecting, "Have you checked Fu Weiru's whereabouts?"
"I've checked, leader." Chang Ting joked casually, making everyone feel less tense.
"I just spoke to the police. They've checked the movements of Fu Weiru's BMW and her cell phone signal tracking. Her account is consistent with what Zhang You just said."
Chen He was confused: "So, she wasn't the one who blew up Xing Yao, and she only came to Lanzhou after the incident?"
Chang Ting was flipping through his notebook, "That's what the timing looks like. Also, she checked into the hotel after arriving in Lanzhou yesterday."
"This morning, I went directly from the hotel to Xing Yuping's home. There's no evidence that she was near the Qingde Auto Repair Shop."
In other words, it was not Fu Weiru who kidnapped Song Zhou.
It seemed that Fu Weiru made this trip to Lanzhou just to come to Xing Yuping's house, "accidentally" encounter the police, and put the blame for the couple's crimes on Xing Yao.
Even if the police didn't come today, Fu Weiru would find a way to lure them over.
So who blew Xing Yao to death?
Chen He always felt that the reason why several events before and after were so confusing was because there was a missing link.
Who is this link?
Before leaving, the elder sister from the community finally came.
Zhang You scolded her and asked her to be more careful next time.
The eldest sister agreed, but she was also full of grievances, complaining that there were not enough people and she had to take care of several elderly people by herself.
Chen He couldn't help but sigh. She went to the bedroom and saw Xing Yuping staring at the door with her sunken eyes wide open. Her lips were moving, and she was mumbling something.
Chen He hurried forward: "Are you thirsty? Are you hungry?"
Xing Yuping's hand suddenly reached out from under the quilt, and her skinny fingers raised towards her.
Chen He took her hand: "Would you like some water?"
"Fake..." Xing Yuping suddenly uttered a word.
Chen He was stunned for a moment: "What?"
Xing Yuping looked at her straight and said with difficulty: "It's a lie..."
This time Chen He understood.
Looking at Xing Yuping's eyes which were no longer confused, she suddenly realized that Xing Yuping was awake at this time and might have heard the conversation between several people in the living room just now.
Chen He held her hand tightly and comforted her, "I understand. No one believes what Fu Weiru said about you. We all know that Zhu Zangmo is not a good person.
"In fact, it was Zhu Zangmo who violated you and caused you to become pregnant, right?"
"No..." Xing Yuping opened her eyes wide and uttered a word with difficulty, her breathing suddenly becoming rapid.
Chen He panicked and shouted, "Hurry up and help me!"
The community lady rushed in, found a pill and stuffed it into Xing Yuping's mouth, then held her head and fed her water.
After a while, Xing Yuping calmed down, and as if exhausted, she fell asleep again.
Chen He stood aside, frowning as she watched. Xing Yuping's final "no" filled her with doubts.
Was Xing Yuping defending Zhu Zangmo, or did she have another point?
Or is it just the ravings of a terminally ill person?
…
All we can do now is wait for news.
Zhang You sent Chen He back to the hotel and arranged two people to protect her at the door.
Chen He lay on the bed, opened Weibo on her mobile phone, and looked at the first private message that had not been deleted.
[I'm fine, don't worry, don't tell anyone. Wait for my news, little puppy.]
Is it Song Zhou who sent this private message?
If it wasn't him, what was the purpose of the person impersonating him?
She didn't dare reply to the private message to test it. If the person on the other side wasn't Song Zhou, any action would be dangerous.
The questions in my mind kept spinning.
But my body couldn't hold on any longer.
Fatigue and cold caused pain like cold bugs crawling out from between the bones.
The hotel's heating was so cozy that I accidentally fell asleep and was caught in a bizarre nightmare.
She floated in the void.
Looking down, I saw the dark and deep valley bottom, covered with a long bloody red line.
She saw colors again in her dream.
This is the northern slope valley, with red spider lilies blooming at the bottom of the valley.
She was suspended above the valley, like a wooden figure with gravity and buoyancy perfectly balanced, unable to sink or fly away.
When I was at a loss, I suddenly saw a figure appear at the top of the narrow stairs above the cliff on one side.
That's where she fell off the cliff. Who was standing there? How dangerous.
Then she saw who it was.
Khaki top, black pants, short hair, black-framed glasses.
It’s Teacher Feng!
