Chapter 194: Exploring the Martyrs' Cemetery
He had no other way out, as everyone in the family was counting on him.
Only by finding out Fu Yecheng's evidence and bringing him down, and proving his innocence, can he go back to look after the warehouse.
Otherwise, no position would want a disabled person like him.
To be honest, he was also implicated, but the source was still Fu Yecheng. The most urgent task was to get rid of this common enemy first, and put the rest of the things aside.
Su Heng stared at Lu Mingchuan's face and looked him up and down. "Tell me, since you have no connection with the Fu family, why does he want to kill you so much?"
This is the most puzzling part.
According to common sense, Mr. Fu holds a high position. Although he has retired, the military district still invites him to go when there is something going on.
Such a big shot, with no biological descendants at home, only Fu Yecheng is an adopted son, so he should be able to rest easy.
He actually took such great risks to target Lu Mingchuan repeatedly, which shows that his existence is a huge threat.
Lu Mingchuan was also thinking about this problem.
He had no real connection to the Fu family. His grandparents were both locals, but his father's origins were unknown...
Su Heng noticed Lu Mingchuan's expression suddenly changed and asked, "What's wrong?"
Lu Mingchuan: "My father is not from here."
Su Heng: “?”
Why didn’t you tell me such an important thing earlier!
Lu Mingchuan quickly explained, "I don't know where he's from, but my mom told me he fainted in the mountains and was picked up by my mom. When he woke up, he didn't remember anything. After that, he lived at home and was taken in as a son-in-law."
Su Heng didn't expect that there was such a big drama hidden here.
The Fu family and their children were fighting in the north, and Lu Mingchuan's mother picked up a man in the mountains in the south.
"And then?" Su Heng motioned for him to continue.
But Lu Mingchuan shook his head: "And he died when I was born."
Su Heng: ...
"I didn't realize you were so good at black humor."
Lu Mingchuan: "As far as I can remember, my mom and grandpa rarely mentioned him. I only knew there were two earthen graves behind the mountain, where my grandma and dad were buried."
Later, two more graves were built there, burying my grandfather and mother.
After hearing what he said, Su Heng couldn't help but touch his head.
Lu Mingchuan kissed her hand and said, "It's all over."
The two of them were silent for a moment and began to sort out the timeline again.
"You were born in June of 1955, which means your parents got married in 1954."
Lu Mingchuan nodded, then said, "But she met my father in the autumn of 1953. My mother said she spent half a year investigating before deciding to marry into the family."
Lu Lan had to observe a person with no past for a long time before she could trust him.
Su Heng thought, it was 1953, the war in the north had just ended.
but--
"Are you sure your father is really dead?"
Is there any hidden secret in this?
Lu Mingchuan was stunned for a moment. This question was a bit beyond his usual thinking. After all, his father's grave was behind the mountain.
"Probably, but my mother never said specifically how he died."
The clue ends here again.
Lu Mingchuan's father didn't even have a portrait, and he only heard from the villagers that he looked like his parents.
This would be easier if I had a photo.
By the way, why doesn’t Lu Mingchuan have the god-level coincidence that the father and son are exactly alike, which is a must in novels?
Su Heng still didn't give up. She decided to go to Meng Xiao again tomorrow to ask when the Fu family's biological son would come back.
The next day, when Meng Xiao saw Su Heng calling him out again, he thought she had changed her mind.
"Why, you're planning to take me with you again, have you discovered that you still need a capable helper like me?"
"Well, that's not the case."
Meng Xiao:?
"Leave."
Su Heng quickly grabbed him and said, "No, seriously, I have something to talk to you about."
Meng Xiao was not interested: "What's the matter?"
"Do you know in which year the Fu family's biological son left and in which year he returned?" Su Heng asked.
Meng Xiao thought for a while and said, "I wasn't even born then. I heard he went to the battlefield in 1952 and came back in 1955. It's said he encountered a group of kidnappers on his way back, and was seriously injured while trying to save them. Grandpa Fu and Grandma Yao didn't even get to see him for the last time."
His own son went to the battlefield at the age of twenty, and he did not come back after the war was finally over.
I originally thought he died on the battlefield, but he wasn't. We were finally about to be reunited, but he passed away on the eve of the reunion.
Su Heng couldn't help but sigh, what a pity.
But after feeling regretful, she couldn't help but think, it was also 1955, what a coincidence.
He went to the battlefield in 1952 and disappeared after the war ended in 1953. Is it possible that he was injured there and was picked up by Lu's mother?
Then maybe he remembered and wanted to come back to see his family, but an accident happened on the way.
This can actually be linked together.
But it could also be a coincidence, after all, so many people disappeared on the battlefield that year.
Moreover, the battlefield was actually in the south of Jilin Province. I don’t know what accident caused people to run to the north.
I don’t know whether the grave belonging to Lu Mingchuan’s father in the back mountain is an empty grave.
Mother Lu didn't say anything.
Meng Xiao looked at Su Heng's thoughtful face, with an expression as if he had eaten a big piece of melon.
"No, it's not what I think, is it?"
Su Heng shook her head: "I don't know either."
Meng Xiao became interested. If that was the case, it would be interesting.
"Do you know where he is buried?" Su Heng still wanted to go and see this person. The Fu family would definitely take a portrait of him.
"I know. I'll take you there at noon."
So Su Heng didn't go home at noon. She and Meng Xiao left the school and went to call Lu Mingchuan.
Su Heng was unable to show up, so Meng Xiao went to call her, and the three of them went to the Martyrs' Cemetery.
As soon as you step in here, the atmosphere seems to become tragic. There are tombstones everywhere, and many of them are cenotaphs.
Meng Xiao only knew that he was buried here, but he still had to find out where exactly.
"His name is Fu Weiguo, given by Grandpa Fu."
Old Master Meng often talked to Meng Xiao at home: "If Weiguo were still alive, Old Fu wouldn't be so lonely now. You don't know, I envied their family back then..."
Fu Weiguo, several people silently recited this name in their hearts, and then they separated and started searching.
Su Heng looked at the endless tombstones in front of him. Those buried here were all defenders of their country.
Or maybe she was just lucky and found it first.
Looking at the black and white photo whose eyebrows and eyes looked somewhat similar to Lu Mingchuan, Su Heng hurried to call the two over.
"Is this it?" She couldn't help but compare Lu Mingchuan's appearance with this man's.
Looking at the photos, they do look a bit similar.
I don’t know if it’s because of preconceived notions, but the more I look at them, the more they look alike.
But Lu Mingchuan had never seen his father. When he looked at the photo, he suddenly felt a sour feeling in his heart, and he couldn't describe the feeling.
Meng Xiao had never been here, but he looked at the photo, glanced at Lu Mingchuan, and thought about Mr. Fu.
The Meng family has a photo of Meng Debin and Fu Jianping joining the army together when they were young.
"Don't tell me, from this perspective, you two, grandfather and grandson, actually have some similarities."
Su Heng: "Is this the grandfather and grandson?"
Meng Xiao nodded affirmatively: "This degree of resemblance is enough to prove it, okay? It's impossible for them to look exactly the same!"
In fact, the old people in the village must have seen Lu Mingchuan's father. Su Heng even wanted to take a picture of the photo and send it back to Secretary Chen to take a look.
