Reborn 1980 The Thousand Gold Peasant Girl

Chapter 143 143. Car Accident
Ning Qiu took the scrapbook and opened it, "The first fire happened in January 1984, when Ma Dongling was still in Xiashan Village. Xiaowangzhuang is not far from Xiashan Village. If Ma Dongling really did it, she has the time. The second The fire happened in the suburbs of Luoyang City in 1988. At that time, Ma Dongling was sent to the Yongen Orphanage in Luoyang City because his father and stepmother died in the fire, and his relatives were left unattended. That is to say, Ma Dongling was in Luoyang when the incident happened.”

"Wait! You said Ma Dongling's house was on fire?" Mu Ye asked.

"Well, that time was just before the Chinese New Year, and she escaped unharmed because she went out to find a lost sheep. And..."

"And what?"

"And when she and the police left, she still smiled at me. I still don't understand why she smiled at me, but now I seem to know the reason."

Everyone was silent...

It was Mu Ye who spoke first after a long time, "I'll go back and find my brother first, and try to find a way to confirm whether the two victims who were identified as accidental fires were the children who were abducted before."

"Remember to check the exact location of the second fire." Ning Qiu reminded.

"Ok, I know."

Mu Ye returned to his residence, thinking about how to ask Mu Bowen to agree to help investigate the two dead.But after waiting for several days, Mu Bowen didn't come home, so he was a little anxious.

On the fourth day, Mu Ye finally couldn't help it, so he had to drive to the Criminal Investigation Brigade.

As soon as he drove the car into the parking lot, a dozen policemen in plain clothes suddenly poured out of the five-story building where the Criminal Investigation Brigade was located. Among them, Mu Ye found that Mu Bowen was among them.

They hurried and ran to the police car.The police car with its blue and red lights on blared its siren, and five police cars drove out of the parking lot one by one.

Their actions were so fast that Mu Ye didn't even have time to wave his hand.He thought for a while, returned to the car, started the car and followed.

Five police cars with lights flashing and sirens sounding, drove unimpeded to an intersection in the eastern suburbs of Luoyang City.

Mu Ye's car followed far behind, but he could still see the black smoke rising in the air in the distance.

This is a car accident?

Mu Ye slowed down, turned at a fork in the road, heard the car on another road, got out of the car and walked to the scene of the accident.

Not only police cars were parked near the intersection, but there were also ambulances and two fire trucks.

Many people stopped to watch on the sidewalk, and several traffic police and auxiliary police were maintaining order in the surrounding area.

This is not the main road, the road leading to the intersection was blocked, and many car owners turned around and changed lanes under the prompt of the traffic police.

Mu Ye squeezed through the crowd and saw clearly the situation at the intersection.

A black car crashed into a concrete pier in the middle of the road, and the front of the car was severely deformed by the huge impact. Several firefighters were using fire extinguishers to put out the open flames.

Another dark gray car was obviously affected and rolled over not far away, leaving black tire marks on the road.It can be seen that the side of the front of the car was smashed, the rearview mirror was knocked off, and it was lying on the ground tens of meters away.

Several firefighters are using tools to pry open the door and rescue the driver in the driver's seat.The medical staff on the side are ready to receive the injured at any time.

The scene was very chaotic, with firefighters and medical staff shuttling back and forth, and policemen in plain clothes or uniforms looking around for traces and taking pictures of the details of the crime scene with cameras.

However, Mu Ye's attention was always on the car that was emitting heavy smoke, it was a very ordinary car.It can be seen from the unburned part of the rear that this is a black sedan.

Mu Ye always felt that this car looked familiar, as if he had seen it there before.

As the sky gradually darkened, the crowd of onlookers became less and less.

It wasn't until a gust of cool wind blew past that Mu Ye realized that he was the only one left on the sidewalk.

Mu Bowen, who was talking with someone, turned his head and saw Mu Ye on the sidewalk in the distance at a glance, and he trotted over.

"Why are you here!?"

"I went to the Criminal Investigation Brigade before, and I just saw you coming out, so I followed here without authorization."

Mu Ye raised his chin, "Are you also involved in investigating traffic accidents?"

Mu Bowen looked at the busy colleagues behind him, pulled Mu Ye aside, and lowered his voice.

"You will never guess... who the deceased is."

"who is it?!"

"Xu Chenghua."

Mu Ye's eyes widened, "What did you say!?"

"Be quiet!"

For some reason, Mu Ye suddenly remembered what Ning Qiu said, and remembered the scrapbook, so he grabbed Mu Bowen.

"Brother! I have something very important to tell you!! About the arson case in Ninth Middle School, about Xu Chenghua!"

Mu Bowen frowned, looked at Mu Ye fixedly, and spoke after a while. "It's not convenient to talk here, you go back to the small courtyard first, and I will go back at night."

It was close to two o'clock in the morning when Mu Bowen returned to the courtyard with a weary sound.The light in the living room was on, and he knew that Mu Ye was waiting for him.

Parked the car, took the car keys and walked straight into the living room.

Mu Ye sat on the sofa with his neck up, his eyes staring at the roof in a daze.He turned his head when he heard the door open.

"Brother! You are finally back!"

Mu Bowen dropped the key and asked while pouring water. "What important thing are you going to tell me?"

Mu Ye picked up the scrapbook beside him, "Brother, take a look at this first."

This was the day he asked Ning Qiu to come, in order to persuade Mu Bowen to investigate the dead in the two fires.

Mu Bowen took a sip from the water glass before walking to the sofa next to Mu Ye and sitting down.He took the notebook and flipped through the pages.

Mu Ye noticed that the change of expression on his face was exactly the same as when he saw it for the first time.From unbelievable at the beginning, to deep doubt later.

It wasn't until I read the last page of Mu Bowen that I asked, "Whose is this?"

"It's a boy named Yun Yuanchu."

"Yun Yuanchu...?"

"Yes, it's also the child in that abduction case."

Mu Bowen immediately opened the scrapbook and found the page with his name written on it, and he found Yun Yuanchu's name on it.

"Ning Qiu also told me..."

"Ning Qiu!?" Mu Bowen interrupted him, "She also knows about this?"

"Well, she also gave me this scrapbook, and Yun Yuanchu was also there."

"What did she say?"

"She said..." Mu Ye relayed what Ning Qiu said to Mu Bowen verbatim.

"Actually, I'm dubious about what she said, so I want my brother to help confirm the identities of the two deceased. But now that Xu Chenghua is dead...then what Ning Qiu said is very likely to be true!"

"This kind of analysis seems to make sense, but what is the motive? Ma Dongling was one of the abducted children at the time, and she had no reason to do what she would do. And we don't have conclusive evidence at hand. We can't just arrest people based on reasoning, right?"

"But if it's really her, then Xu Chenghua's death can be explained! And the timing is so coincidental, the time when the two fires broke out happened to be the time when Ma Dongling left Xiashan Village and came to Yongen Orphanage. Ning Qiu also told me, Ning Qiu once saw Fang Yingqiu and Ma Dongling shopping together in the market, and they looked very close at that time."
