The general manager's office fell into a brief silence. Everyone present looked at Ma Yilong, waiting for his answer.

But after a while, the other party showed no intention to speak, which meant that he was not thinking or hesitating, but was planning to refuse.

Everyone in Donghua Village, ranging from 90-year-olds to young people in their 20s and 30s, are concealing this matter. It is obvious that they have unified the policy and are strictly forbidden to tell it.

The village is small.

The smaller the place, the more united it is.

It sounds nice to say unity, but in fact it is easy to control. As long as some people stand up, the remaining villagers who have no independent opinions will obey.

"Mr. Ma, I'm waiting for your reply." Chen Yi spoke to break the silence.

Ma Yilong struggled for a long time and held back a sentence: "I don't know, I was still very young at that time."

Chen Yi: "No matter how young you are, you are still over thirteen years old. Even if you don't know, your parents will talk about it. This matter is very important to us. Please answer truthfully."

Ma Yilong shook his head: "I really don't know, Officer Chen. Otherwise... you'd better go to the village and ask other people. Others should know."

Chen Yi narrowed his eyes slightly.

pass the buck.

Everyone said this and asked others to ask, but the results were the same, the ball was kicked very skillfully.

He couldn't press the question even if the person being questioned didn't say anything, but... Ma Yilong was from the Chen Group. This was the biggest difference between Ma Yilong and those villagers.

He glanced at Shan Honghai.

As a police officer, you cannot use force to suppress others, but Shan Honghai can.

Shan Honghai was a good person. He knew what he should do as soon as he looked at Chen Yi for a second, and his expression immediately became serious.

"Ma Yilong!"

"ah?"

Ma Yilong was suddenly startled and looked at Shan Honghai.

Shan Honghai is the general manager of the company, a high-ranking figure. He usually doesn't dare to take a breath when he is exposed to anger, and he doesn't even have the opportunity to have a direct conversation.

Compared to Chen Yi, he was of course more afraid of Shan Honghai.

Shan Honghai said coldly: "Please understand the situation. This is Officer Chen, whose full name is Chen Yi. He is the only son of the chairman of the Chen Group. If you refuse to answer in front of him, do you not want to do it anymore?"

Ma Yilong: "????"

Yang Ting on the side was also surprised and subconsciously sat up straighter.

Chen Yi quickly smoothed things over: "Mr. Shan, what are you talking about? I'm just a policeman and have nothing to do with the company."

Shan Honghai kept talking and looked at Ma Yilong: "Let me tell you, don't think this is a trivial matter. I am also involved in it. Officer Chen is polite to you and I will not be polite to you. If the chairman mentions this matter in future meetings , I opened it as soon as I got back!"

Ma Yilong panicked.

After working in the company for so many years, I managed to get to my current position with great difficulty. Once I am fired, everything will be reset. I need to start over in a new company, and all my efforts will be in vain.

and……

Not everyone can get into a company like Zhongda Technology. He caught up with the company when it was in the development stage, so he could successfully join the company.

Luck won't come back a second time.

"I...I'm sorry, I'll tell you."

Ma Yilong apologized quickly. Compared with the messy things in the village, of course he had to take care of himself first.

You still have to make money to support your family!

Shan Honghai: "Hurry up!"

After speaking, he glanced at Chen Yi, who raised the corners of his mouth slightly in silent communication.

Ma Yilong sighed and said, "The mute child is in the village. Her name is Zhai Yiling. She is a girl."

Chen Yi: "What exactly happened? Let's start from the beginning. How old were you at the time."

Ma Yilong said while recalling: "I was eighteen years old at the time and had just entered college. When I came back from the first vacation, I heard someone said that the mute was pregnant. I was so confused at the time. The mute had no boyfriend and was not married. How could she be pregnant? .”

"I asked my parents, but they didn't know. I asked the mute, but the mute said nothing."

"As the mute's belly got bigger and bigger, everyone in the village knew about it. There was a lot of noise at that time. Every household was quarreling, and they all suspected that it was their own men who did it. Several bachelors were even questioned."

"Later, I don't know who suggested it, let everyone forget this incident and pretend that nothing happened. Anyway, everyone is suspected..."

Hearing this, Chen Yi interrupted: "Wait a minute, who suggested it?"

The person making the suggestion is most likely the child's father.

Ma Yilong: "I don't know."

He was afraid that Chen Yi wouldn't believe it, so he added: "I really don't know. My parents told me about this and asked me not to tell anyone about the mute's pregnancy. No matter who asks in the future, they will just pretend that they don't know about this." Something happened."

Chen Yi: "Continue."

Ma Yilong: "Six or seven months passed like this. The mute's belly was already very big and she was about to give birth. The village found a midwife for the mute and she gave birth to the baby in a temple outside the village."

"I'm not very clear about the specific process. The child was adopted by the Zhai family after it was born. Maybe she was worried that the mute could not take care of the child. She couldn't even take care of herself."

Chen Yi nodded slightly.

The child is innocent. Adoption is the best choice for the child. She can grow up healthily and get a good education.

If you follow the mute, you can't guarantee that a second stupid woman will appear in the village in the future.

"What are the names of the child's parents?" he asked.

Ma Yilong: "I don't know their names. When we meet, I call them uncle and aunt."

It is normal for younger generations not to know the names of their elders. Unless they are particularly close or their parents often mention them at home, they usually refer to them by seniority.

Chen Yi: "Does Zhai Yiling know that her biological mother is mute?"

Ma Yilong sighed: "I definitely don't know, everyone is hiding it, and... Zhai Yiling seems to hate the mute, and dislikes her for being stupid and dirty."

Chen Yi suddenly asked: "Do you know whose child it is?"

Ma Yilong waved his hands repeatedly: "I don't know this."

Chen Yi recalled the ages of the deceased Lu Qiucheng. The mute girl was fifteen years old at the time and Lu Qiucheng was eleven years old.

Eleven years old, infertile.

"Does Lu Qiucheng have a girlfriend?" Chen Yi asked.

Ma Yilong: "No, he puts all his energy into work and has no time for love."

Chen Yi secretly sighed in his heart. He was beaten to death without even having a serious girlfriend. It was a pity for a man who worked hard to make progress.

"What is his relationship with the mute? Is there a male-female relationship?"

Ma Yilong was stunned by the sudden words and almost didn't react: "Huh??"

Chen Yi: "Literally, just answer."

Ma Yilong: "Probably not. He is also called Dumb Sister Dumb Sister. I didn't see that they have that kind of relationship."

Chen Yi: "The two of you have a good relationship?"

Ma Yilong: "I was very good when I was a kid, but I didn't know about it when I went to college."

Chen Yi realized that the case was about to reach a deadlock.

Judging from the clues we have so far, the logic does not work. The mute girl had no motive to kill Lu Qiucheng. Lu Qiucheng was only eleven years old when she was pregnant. What could an eleven-year-old do? Normally nothing can be done.

Besides, the relationship between the two is so good.

Could it be something happened in recent years?

He is now focusing on the mute girl's child, Zhai Yiling. If there is anything that can make the mute girl so angry, it is most likely related to Zhai Yiling.

Could it be that... Lu Qiucheng did something bad to Zhai Yiling and let the mute girl know about it?

This idea is reasonable.

Then why did he take leave? Why are you in a bad mood? Why go to the Chenghuang Temple outside the village so late at night?

Need to check Zhai Yiling.

"Is Zhai Yiling still in school?" Chen Yi asked.

Ma Yilong: "When I went to school, I heard that she had very good grades and was admitted to our local Yangcheng University. When the admission notice came last year, her parents were still clamoring all over the village."

Chen Yi: "Like Lu Qiucheng, he is a good young man."

It seems that some of the mute girl's flaws were not passed on to her daughter, which is good news.

Again, the child is innocent.

Ma Yilong: "Yes, compared with the mute, her life is much better. I believe the mute should also be very happy inside."

Chen Yi was silent.

It's nice to see your daughter excel, but your daughter calls others mom.

Most importantly, I hate myself.

This is actually very painful for a mother. The mute girl is not a completely stupid person. She must have suffered silently for many years.

Maybe taking a look at Zhai Yiling from a distance on the road was her happiest moment.

Because of this, Chen Yi became more and more convinced that the mute woman's motive for committing the crime was most likely related to Zhai Yiling.

He needed to see this girl right away.

Ma Yilong and Yang Ting left. Chen Yi and Shan Honghai chatted for a while, agreed to have time to drink together, and then stood up to leave.

After walking out of the company door, Shi Xin said: "It's all thanks to your company, otherwise it would be really difficult."

Chen Yi took out a cigarette and handed it over: "It's just a little troublesome. Zhai Yiling is from Donghua Village. The results can be obtained by extracting the DNA of the whole village."

Shi Xin nodded: "Yeah."

"Judging from the clues we have, Lu Qiucheng has a good relationship with the mute girl, and he can't be Zhai Yiling's father. This is weird. Why did he want to kill Lu Qiucheng?"

Chen Yi lit a cigarette: "Zhai Yiling is the key."

Shi Xin agreed: "That is the only bond of the mute girl. If Zhai Yiling is harmed, and the harm comes from Lu Qiucheng, she can do anything."

Chen Yi looked at the time and said, "Let's go to Yangcheng University."

"Qin Fei, notify the police stations on standby that the mission is cancelled."

Qin Fei: "Yes."

After lunch, the car stopped at the entrance of Yangcheng University. Several people chose to walk and walked into the most representative double first-class university in Yangcheng.

After telephone inquiries, several people came to the girls' dormitory, showed their IDs, went upstairs, and stood in front of Zhai Yiling's dormitory door.

Boom, boom, boom!

"Hello, could you please open the door?"

The door opened quickly. Everyone in the dormitory was there during the lunch break. Six young and energetic female students looked curious.

"Who is Zhai Yiling?"

One of the girls stood up: "I am, were you the ones who called just now?"

Chen Yi smiled and nodded: "Yes, can we come out and have a chat? It won't take you too long."
