The Devil is Lurking By Your Side

Leng Yu drove the car steadily on the road. She looked at Huang Lin from the corner of her eyes. Seeing her face full of joy, she said lightly: "After we solve the case, you can rest as long as you want. I will talk to Director Wang when we turn back. Let’s talk about it. If you want to date, go on a date, and if you want to sleep at home, go to sleep."

When Leng Yu mentioned the word "dating", somehow Huang Lin felt her ears hot and couldn't help asking: "Boss, what do you mean by dating?"

Leng Yu asked without thinking, "What's wrong? Is there a problem?"

He does not mean that.

Nowadays, the word "date" sounds different in Huang Lin's ears.

When she was single, she didn't have time to find someone to date, but now she has a partner, but because of a temporary case, she can't start a good first date with the partner.

Couples who have just been together have so many things they want to say to each other, and there are so many things they want to do with each other. However, Huang Lin and Mei Hua rarely have this opportunity.

Because of her responsibility, Huang Lin did not complain. She had the same idea as Leng Yu, she had to solve the case quickly before she could concentrate on falling in love and dating with her partner.

After hearing Leng Yu’s question, Huang Lin hurriedly said in a low voice: "No... No problem."

However, just after she finished speaking, a smile appeared in the corner of her eyes.

She opened the WeChat interface again, looked at the message Meihua had sent to her, and quickly responded to the other party: "Then, do you mean that I have a girlfriend?"

The other party quickly replied to her: "Yes."

Huang Lin replied: "Ahhhhh! That's great!" She was very excited, and her fingers trembling with the reply message, she replied again: "But you have to wait for me to come back, because the boss seems to have noticed New clues. Then, now we have to discuss the case, I will give you information later."

Meihua replied with understanding: "Okay, don't delay."

When Huang Lin saw this, she smiled and quickly sent her a kiss emoticon package.

After she put the phone in her trouser pocket, she turned her head and asked, "Boss, have we discovered something new?"

Leng Yu looked serious and nodded and said, "Yes. The deceased woman, Chen Yiqin, used to be not only a kindergarten teacher, but also the deputy dean of an orphanage."

Xiao Cheng and Huang Lin asked together: "What?!" Their voices were surprised.

Leng Yu nodded and said, "She used to be the deputy dean of an orphanage in a village in Nanshi." After a pause, he said, "Do you still remember that after Liang Chengyuan and his wife were killed, the wall clock in their home had been killed." Did the murderer press the pause button and then point the time to 4.10?"

"Yeah, I remember! Did the murderer deliberately adjust the time to the time he wanted really has a great relationship with this case?" Huang Lin asked again.

Leng Yu let out a "um" and said, "The number 4.10 does not represent the time, but the date. When I checked on the Internet, I entered this date and then I got the result."

"Boss, did you see the photo?" Xiao Cheng asked.

"Of course. If it weren't for the photos and the small print underneath, I hardly recognized Liang Chengyuan and his wife. At that time, they were too young. Compared with the old appearance, the difference is really big." Leng Yu said.

At this time, Huang Lin became more and more curious. She asked: "What's wrong? What's wrong with the photo?"

Leng Yu said, "The photo shows that the orphanage where Chen Yiqin served as the deputy dean received funding from the mayor of Nanshi, and then it attracted reporters and took pictures and published them in the newspaper. If it weren't for this photo, I I don’t think I knew Chen Yiqin’s previous identity so soon. Liang Chengyuan was there when they received the grant. He and Chen Yiqin were still standing together. I don’t think they were wearing wedding rings on their fingers. , So I guess they weren’t married yet.”

"So, are we going to that village now?" Huang Lin asked.

Leng Yu nodded and said, "Yes, we have to investigate and ask if the villagers over there know Liang Chengyuan and his wife, and then maybe we can tell from their mouths if the two have offended people before. "

Nanshi and Yangshi are far apart, and it took them a full 6 hours to drive to a small town in Nanshi. Following the navigation, Leng Yu slowly drove forward. When he reached a village, he saw XX Village written in red paint on a large rock next to him.

Leng Yu said: "Here, we are looking for this village."

She drove the car cautiously, and slowly drove forward until they came to an open grass field, and then stopped the car.

The three people got out of the car and looked at the scattered houses in the distance. They suddenly felt that the village was very desolate.

So after they secretly recorded the parking location, they walked into the village on foot. Along the way, they stepped on a dirt road with weedy woods on both sides. They kept going up until they gradually saw the villagers' houses.

Since most of the young people in the village went to work in the city, only the elderly and children were left in the village.

Mobile phone traffic is weak in the countryside, so there is no use of mobile phones here. After turning a few turns, they finally found the village chief’s house under the guidance of the villagers.

When they came to the door of the village chief’s house, they saw that his house, like the other villagers, lived in an earthen house. They did not build a luxurious villa because they were the village chief.

Hey, it's kind of interesting.

Leng Yu knocked on the door first, and asked, "Is this the home of Ye Huagui, the head of XX Village?"

After knocking on the door, she took a step back and waited for the other person to open the door.

A few minutes later, she faintly heard the sound of footsteps behind the door, followed by the door of the earth house being opened from the inside. I saw a man who was about 70 years old came out. When he saw them, his face showed a slightly surprised look.

"Are you looking for me for anything?" he asked.

When Leng Yu saw Mr. Ye speaking, he showed his yellow teeth and smiled slightly. She showed her police officer's certificate and said: "We were sent by the Federal Bureau of Yang City and found this village for two murders. Can we go inside and talk?"

Although Mayor Ye showed a suspicious look, he nodded immediately, and then invited the three of them into the house.

"There is nothing to entertain here, can you drink water?" Mr. Ye asked.

Huang Lin immediately said, "No, no, we can do whatever we want."

Since most of the villagers in the village are poor, their lives are simple. Even the village chief’s house does not have much furniture. There are only 3 wooden chairs in the living room.

Village Chief Ye sat on a chair and said apologetically: "My wife is dead, and my child has grown up. They all go to work in the city. I live here alone. I rarely have them. Visitors from outside, so there is nothing in the house. I'm sorry, but I couldn't greet them well."

Leng Yu pulled a chair next to him, sat down, and said lightly: "You're welcome, we just got to know you a few things and left."

Village Mayor Ye looked at Xiao Cheng and Huang Lin who were standing behind Leng Yu, then turned to look at Leng Yu again, still asking somewhat unclearly, "Nothing has happened in our village recently, and it’s isolated from the world. , Even if there is a murder case outside, I think it has nothing to do with us, right?"

After hearing this, Leng Yu said lightly: "It certainly doesn't matter now, because the people involved in the two murders have already moved from the village."

Village Chief Ye was taken aback, and asked in amazement, "Ah? Who is it?"

Leng Yu curled her lips. She turned her head and asked, "Is there an orphanage in your village about 25 years ago?"

Village Mayor Ye was taken aback again, and then nodded and said, "Yes, there used to be an orphanage here. At that time, the village was still prosperous, with a decent school and an orphanage. Moreover, the mayor of Nanshi gave it back to the orphans. At that time, everyone was proud to be able to report and shake hands with the mayor. They said that there was a lot of light on their faces. Later, the reputation of the orphanage gradually became louder because of the mayor’s visit, and then many did not. The couples of the children will come here to adopt, adopt, and adopt the children, so more and more orphans left the village with them and lived in the city."

"What happened?" Leng Yu asked.

Village Chief Ye smiled and shook his head, and said, “Later, there were fewer and fewer children in the orphanage, and only some orphans with disabilities were left. No one wanted to take them away, so they stayed there. In the orphanage. A few years later, the orphanage chose to close because of the problem of poor fund turnover, and then the dean and deputy dean also left the village together."

When Leng Yu heard what Mr. Ye said about the orphanage, he asked him: "Then, what is the name of the deputy dean who left? Is it called Chen Yiqin?"

Village Chief Ye widened his eyes and said, "Police officer, you have never been to our village. How do you know that Chen Yiqin was the vice president of the year?"

Xiao Cheng held back a smile and said, "Old Man Ye, we only knew it because we saw the photo in the newspaper."

Village Chief Ye was even more surprised at this time. He frowned and said, "25 years ago, you were all just little babies. How come you have seen newspapers?"

When Xiao Cheng wanted to explain again, Leng Yu interrupted him and said, "Mr. Ye, when Chen Yiqin was the deputy dean of the orphanage, what kind of person did you think she was?"

After the head of the village Ye heard this, the whole person fell into the memory immediately, and saw a smile on his face, saying: "She is a very kind little girl, and she treats the children in the orphanage very well. Yes. She is very patient and doesn't dislike them at all. She prepares food for them every day, and even plays with them. If I am a dozen years younger, how can the kid Liang Chengyuan have a chance?" , I laughed loudly.

When Liang Chengyuan's name was mentioned by the village chief, the hearts of Leng Yu and others suddenly jumped.

It turned out that he still knew Liang Chengyuan's name.

So Leng Yu asked: "Liang Chengyuan? What happened to Liang Chengyuan?"

Village Chief Ye smiled slightly and said, "Isn't he just a little doctor in the village? After he graduated, he was sent to our village as a doctor, and then he also lived in the village. XX village is not counted. There are only a few young girls who are not married, and the best-looking among them is Chen Yiqin. Therefore, when Liang Chengyuan visited the orphanage for the first time, each of the orphans living there was vaccinated. When they met Chen Yiqin, the two hit it off and began to talk about a vigorous love. After they were together, it used to be a good story in the village. Therefore, when the villagers mentioned their family of gods, Everyone thinks they are a perfect match."

Leng Yu let out an "um" and then said, "It's a pity that these two people are already dead."

Although her tone was indifferent, Mayor Ye couldn't help but open her mouth. .
