Chapter 45 Chapter 45 It's Oops
Su Lian comes to Baohua Temple in the provincial capital every year.
Baohua Temple has a long history and local people often come here to worship Buddha.
Su Lian came here as a volunteer, helping the monks in the temple clean the courtyard. He had no money but was provided with food and accommodation.
Su Lian lived with these monks, eating and sleeping with them.
When the monks were doing their morning prayers, he would listen and always felt at peace.
The monks in Baohua Temple all praised him as a good man.
Su Lian was complacent.
The only one who always frowned at Su Lian was Shannian.
Shannian often came to persuade Su Lian that only by speaking out what was in his heart could he find true liberation.
Su Lian responded with a smile, "I am free now."
Shannian just shook his head.
Su Lian was sure that he was indeed free.
As time goes by, year after year, everyone will forget that he can stay in the provincial capital and enjoy his old age.
On the anniversary of Lu Zhiyong's death, Su Lian will definitely come to Baohua Temple.
He wanted to chant scriptures and pray for his good friend.
Su Lian imitated Shan Nian and recited the Buddhist scriptures that were no longer unfamiliar to him. He heard his own voice and felt more joyful than ever before.
In a few years, he will be able to do it more freely.
However, just as the sky was getting light, two cars appeared in front of Baohua Temple, one of which was a police car.
Shannian came to greet several criminal police officers and the ordinary-dressed people in the car behind them.
Baohua Temple is built in the mountains and is shrouded in thick fog in the early morning.
The sound of birdsong echoes in the mountains, and in front of Baohua Temple, everything is purest and clear.
Sang Baiyu supported Chi Zhao and walked into the temple.
Chi Zhao saw it clearly now, but did not refuse.
Bian Bin, who was left aside: "..."
He should be the one supporting the young master!
Fang Xiaoman was particularly disgusted. "What era is this? You're still talking about young masters. I'd rather send you back to the Qing Dynasty."
Bian Bin, who was bullied again: "..."
He can only be bullied here!!
When they entered, Su Lian was sweeping the yard.
He was startled when he saw them, then smiled at Shan Nian and said, "Guests coming so early?"
Shan Nian said to Geng Qun, "I want to talk to him."
Geng Qun nodded.
Shan Nian took Su Lian aside and said, "I know you have something hidden in your heart that you have not been able to get rid of. If you take the initiative to speak out about it, there may still be a chance."
The detectives were not wearing police uniforms, and Su Lian did not see any police cars.
He smiled and shook his head, "I told you before, you worry too much. I came here just to have some peace and quiet."
Geng Qun walked towards Su Lian.
He didn't know why Su Lanyi had to find Su Lian. Maybe he wanted to meet his uncle?
But Su Landi didn't come with them.
Geng Qun's apprentice Bian Feng worked with him on the Su family case. It was he who checked whether Su Lian had any scratches on his body.
In order to ensure that everything was foolproof, Su Lian was asked to take off all his clothes. In the end, nothing was found. He still felt a little guilty about what happened that year.
Bian Feng walked over and laughed heartily, "So many years have passed in a flash, how did you end up at Baohua Temple?"
Su Lian smiled and said, "The day after tomorrow is my friend's death anniversary. I come here every year to stay for a few days."
Bian Feng asked curiously, "Is it Lu Zhiyong?" Su Lian nodded.
"Lu Zhiyong is really a piece of shit. He's done a lot of bad things over the years and has been to jail twice. He's a frequent visitor to the police station. It's really not easy for you to keep thinking about him."
The provincial capital is not that big, and Bian Feng is very familiar with those who have committed crimes.
Like Lu Zhiyong, he is a typical example of someone who never changes despite repeated warnings. His only advantage is that he is still loyal to his friends.
When he got into trouble, it was Bian Feng who responded to the call to confirm whether there was any suspicion of homicide.
After Lu Zhiyong got into trouble, Su Lian not only helped him with his funeral, but also helped him take care of his daughter. Bian Feng had a very good impression of Su Lian.
Su Lian was different from other criminals. He was initially investigated as a suspect, but later it was discovered that he was not the murderer. He was drinking with Lu Zhiyong at the time of the crime.
Yesterday, Geng Qun suddenly said that he wanted to investigate Su Lian, and Bian Feng was very confused.
Su Lian is only related to the Su family massacre, but it has been confirmed that he is not the real murderer, he is a family member of the victim.
Why are you checking him out all of a sudden?
Geng Qun's explanation was unclear.
Bian Feng could not refuse his master's request. He had followed his master since he joined the criminal investigation team. It could be said that his master had brought him to where he is today. Now that Geng Qun had retired, he could not let Geng Qun feel that he was no longer valued after retirement.
Bian Feng regarded this as a way to accompany his master to resolve his obsession and play a child's game at the same time.
The children here mainly refer to Sang Baiyu.
Bian Feng whispered to Su Lian, "What else can you remember about your brother's family case? This is an unsolved case in my master's hands. He won't be able to sleep peacefully until it's solved."
Su Lian looked at Geng Qun.
There is still the sharpness of an old criminal policeman in Geng Qun's eyes, but after taking off the police uniform, what is left is more of the helplessness of old age.
Su Lian said, "If I have any clues, I will tell you. Is this the reason you mobilized so many people to find me?"
Bian Feng said: "The case of annihilating a family is no small matter. We will pay close attention to it."
Sang Baiyu walked up to Su Lian.
Su Lian asked: "Is this also a policeman?"
Bian Feng laughed dryly, "She is not."
Bian Feng was helpless towards Sang Baiyu.
Sang Baiyu looked very well-behaved, but all her requests were inexplicable, and Geng Qun still agreed to her.
The master is just old and is used to pampering the younger generation.
Sang Baiyu said, "Uncle, don't just stand there. Come back with us. Your family can't find you and they're very worried."
Su Lian was detained in the interrogation room of the criminal investigation team, and Bian Feng was responsible for interrogating Su Lian.
He didn't know what he should examine. Geng Qun and Sang Baiyu didn't explain it clearly, so he could only ask about things related to the case over and over again.
Su Lian frowned and answered twice, finally impatiently saying, "Officer Bian, do you have any new evidence? Or are you still suspicious of me? After all these years, why did you suddenly bring me to the Public Security Bureau to ask these questions?"
Bian Feng was speechless when asked.
It was the first time he felt so embarrassed in the interrogation room, and he could only pray that Geng Qun would come back soon.
At the same time, Geng Qun and other criminal police rushed to Su Lian's home and questioned Su Lian's family members separately.
Although Geng Qun was doing these things, he was actually very uneasy.
He also didn't understand why they targeted Su Lian. Logically speaking, the investigation of Su Lian back then had been very thorough.
Geng Qun secretly found Sang Baiyu. He could see that the others all listened to her.
He gently reminded, "Xiao Sang, it's been more than 20 years since the incident. I'm afraid there won't be any evidence."
Sang Baiyu also knew that it was difficult to find evidence, but if he continued to delay, the evidence would only continue to disappear. It would be better to search before Su Lian could respond.
Sang Baiyu said: "I'm mainly looking for some valuable things in Su Lian's house."
"What kind of things?"
Sang Baiyu said: "Anything is fine. If Su Lian is the murderer, it is only for money."
For the 100,000 yuan that was returned for some unknown reason.
Geng Qun said, "Su Heng's house shouldn't have lost anything. Su Lanyi didn't mention it."
Sang Baiyu shook his head, "I suspect that Second Brother's memory is not very clear."
Geng Qun was stunned.
What is unclear?
Geng Qun asked, "Aren't you going to stay and look for it?"
"I..." Sang Baiyu looked at Chi Zhao, "We want to meet Su Lian and Lu Zhiyong's mutual friends."
