Chapter 44 Chapter 44 Temple
Su Lian said that four people died in Su Heng's family.
Su Heng, Ma Wenxin, Su Fanxing, and...Su Landi?
Su Lanyi said that he met Su Lian after he escaped.
When he said he had seen it, how did he mean?
That doesn't make sense. If there was something wrong with Su Lian, why didn't he have any scratches on his body?
Or, he was the murderer, but the person Ma Wenxin scratched was not him?
Sang Baiyu looked at the photo frame on the wall. There were many small photos in the large frame, which was 50 cm long and 40 cm wide.
Sang Baiyu walked to the photo frame.
Lu Xi came over and pointed to one of the photos and said, "This is Uncle Su."
In the photo, Su Lian looks ordinary and is arm in arm with a man of about the same age.
Lucy said, "Uncle Su and my dad had a really good relationship. I was able to grow up safely thanks to Uncle Su. So I always kept Uncle Su's photo at home. Uncle Su even said it was his duty and asked me to take it down."
Sang Baiyu repeated, "Do you want to take it off again?"
"I won't take it. We should be grateful. My father has done so many wrong things. It's not easy to have a friend who is sincere to him."
Sang Baiyu looked at other photos.
Most of the photos are of Lucy, from her birth to when she was ten years old, and there are not many photos of her when she grew up.
Sang Baiyu saw a photo of Lu Xi's parents. The two stood in front of Lotus Square in the provincial capital. Lotus Square has a huge lotus, which is the landmark of the provincial capital.
Sang Baiyu frowned and looked at it, then asked, "Sister, can you show me this photo?"
Sang Baiyu's requests were already too numerous to be bizarre.
Although Lucy had doubts in her heart, when she saw her innocent eyes, she felt that she was just a little sister, so what bad intentions could she have?
The little sister is very likable.
Lucy took down the photo frame and said, "I'll open it for you. You can look at all of this."
There was a faint smile on Chi Zhao's face.
Only Sang Baiyu could go to someone's house and ask to see photos openly and observe them carefully without being chased away.
I don't know where her affinity comes from.
Sang Baiyu took out the photo and ran to Chi Zhao, "Look."
Chi Zhao took off his sunglasses.
Now his eyes are in good condition and he can see clearly.
But it is not as clear as that of ordinary people, and the outline of the object is still a little blurry.
Chi Zhao looked at it for a moment and said, "Was it taken when Lu Zhiyong was young?"
Sang Baiyu: "...Look at his arms."
Chi Zhao shook his head, "I can't see clearly."
Sang Baiyu patted Chi Zhao's shoulder and said, "How can you live without me?"
Chi Zhao: "..."
Sang Baiyu said: "There are scratches on his arms and a date in the lower right corner of the photo."
Now all developed photos have dates on them, which are in red font in the lower right corner.
Chi Zhao recognized the number and asked in surprise, "The second day of the case?"
Sang Baiyu said, "I don't think it's a coincidence."
"He is?"
Sang Baiyu didn't know either, so she made another presumptuous request, "Sister, do you have any of Uncle Lu's old things?"
Lucy: “…”
Did she receive strange people?
Sang Baiyu said, "I will definitely not sabotage it. Sister, can you show it to me?"
Sang Baiyu kept calling Lu Xi "sister", which made Lu Xi dizzy. She nodded and said, "I secretly kept some."
The custom in the provincial capital is not to keep things belonging to the dead.
When someone leaves, their belongings should be burned and taken away with them.
Lucy lost her parents one after another, and didn't want to erase the traces of their life in her home, so she secretly left a box.
Lu Xi brought Sang Baiyu to the wooden box and said, "These are my dad's clothes."
Lucy took out a shirt that had been washed countless times. The shirt was wrinkled and its original color could no longer be seen.
Sang Baiyu felt the material of the shirt and asked, "Are there any aunt's clothes underneath?"
"Oh, yes," Lucy was a little surprised, but still took out the braid, "My mother wore it when she was young. She loved wearing skirts the most."
Sang Baiyu looked at them one by one, and after thinking for a moment, he asked, "Uncle Su was there the day Uncle Lu had the accident, right?"
Lucy nodded, "Uncle Su jumped in to save him, but he couldn't pull him out because the river was too fast."
Sang Baiyu said, "Sister, when Uncle Lu fell into the water, did you ever doubt that it was an accident?"
Lu Xi looked at Sang Baiyu in surprise. "I... never thought about it this way. Why do you say that? Who are you? What did you find out?"
Sang Baiyu shook his head. "It's hard to say yet. I have to find Su Lian first. If there is any progress, I will come back and tell you."
Su Lian seemed to have disappeared from the face of the earth and could not be found anywhere.
Sang Baiyu also went to the funeral home where Lu Zhiyong's ashes were stored, but did not see Su Lian.
She asked the staff at the funeral home about Su Lian, but they said they had never seen him.
On Lu Zhiyong's death anniversary, Su Lian didn't want to visit him.
Then why did he choose to disappear in these few days?
Sang Baiyu vaguely felt that there was something hidden behind this.
It was too troublesome to always take a taxi, so Chi Zhao asked Bian Bin to rent a car.
Renting a car is not that convenient nowadays, so Bian Bin went directly to a taxi company to rent one. Money makes things easier.
Bian Bin was driving, and Sang Baiyu was sitting in the back seat, thinking deeply.
It was late, and there were almost no pedestrians on the street, with mottled street lights flashing continuously.
Chi Zhao crossed his long legs, interlaced his fingers, and asked, "Has Lu Zhiyong ever been to the Su family?"
Sang Baiyu shook his head.
"But he had scratches on him."
Sang Baiyu said, "But no one said that Ma Wenxin scratched the other person in the house. If it was in the yard, with good ventilation, there would be no way the smell would remain after so many years. I can smell it now because the doors and windows at the scene were closed the whole time."
Chi Zhao said: "So you must find Su Lian now, where will he go?"
Sang Baiyu shook his head, "I have to ask Uncle Geng for help."
Geng Qun took a few people to find his former subordinates in the criminal investigation team.
The Public Security Bureau in the provincial capital is much stronger than the police station in Longxinggang, and its equipment is more advanced.
The two people on duty in the criminal investigation team felt that Geng Qun's request was not very reliable when they heard it.
It has been many years since the Su family case, and the young people in their team have never heard of it.
Is it useful to suddenly check Su Lian’s whereabouts now?
It would be better to wait for Su Lian to come out on his own in a few days.
Geng Qun's apprentice pulled him aside and asked, "Master, who are these people? Are they reliable?"
He doesn't look like a good person at all.
Geng Qun pointed at Sang Baiyu and said, "She always seems like a good person, right?"
The apprentice nodded silently.
"Don't worry, it's easier for you to investigate than for us. We won't just sit there and do nothing. Let's go and find Su Lian together."
With the help of the criminal police, the progress was much faster.
The apprentice took Sang Baiyu and others to visit the area near Su Lian's home, expanding from 500 meters to 2 kilometers, and finally found two shops where Su Lian had been seen.
One is a steamed bun shop and the other is a rice noodle shop. Su Lian had eaten there a few days ago.
The shop owner said a few words to him at that time, and he said he wanted to go and calm down.
Bian Bin said dejectedly, "It seems like I've gotten some information, but it also seems like I haven't. Quiet? I can be quiet anywhere."
Sang Baiyu asked: "Could he be..."
Everyone looked at Sang Baiyu.
Sang Baiyu asked, "Did you go to the temple?"
