Detective Files II

Chapter 308

"What do you mean by that?" Lou Li was seriously injured and was in the hospital. This fact made it impossible for Tian Mi not to be sensitive to the old lady's words.

The old lady felt that she had slipped her words, and hurriedly backed away from the crowd, pretending not to hear Tian Mi's question, and lowered her head and moved back. Unfortunately, before her wish was fulfilled, Tian Mi grabbed her.

"Don't rush away, is there any conflict between Lou Li and his sister?" Tian Mi held the old lady's arm, relentlessly, as if she was going to break the casserole and ask the end.

The old lady looked at the neighbors around in embarrassment, and the others naturally had expressions that had nothing to do with her. She sighed annoyedly: "Look at my cheap mouth! It's so good, why mention it!"

"What's the name?" Tian Mi asked.

"My surname is Wu." The old lady stood there in embarrassment. She didn't want to leave, she didn't want to stay, and she was unwilling to stay. Tian Mi was holding her arm and she couldn't get away.

"Aunt Wu," Tian Mi said to her sincerely, "I know you have concerns, but now it's not just about Lou Li being injured and lying in the hospital. The other passengers in the car are innocent after all. Before I came here, I just went to the home of one of the passengers who unfortunately died. His wife died long ago, and now there is only one daughter who has been paralyzed for many years and cannot take care of herself. It’s just a microcosm. We haven’t had the chance to learn about the conditions of the other people who were killed or injured in this accident. So any clues that may be valuable now are very important to us, and I hope you can understand.”

After hearing what Tian Mi said about the situation of Zuo Weimin's family, Aunt Wu was also shocked, and other neighbors around her also talked about it, expressing their regret for the miserable experience of the Zuo family.

After being silent for a while, Aunt Wu finally sighed and said to Tian Mi: "Actually, I'm not afraid of getting myself into trouble, and it's not that I don't know that the car exploded, those who died and those who were injured, the family is so sad and painful, Actually speaking from the bottom of my heart, at my age, there is nothing to be afraid of, even if things go smoothly, how many more years can I go, I am afraid that talking nonsense will cause trouble for the eldest daughter of the Lou family."

"Don't worry about this, I'll be careful." Tian Mi assured Aunt Wu.

Aunt Wu also knew that she couldn't resist, so she simply became happy: "Actually, this is the case. The eldest daughter of the Lou family is really worried about her younger brother, but this kid Lou Li doesn't appreciate it at all. The boss is not young. He always reached out to his sister for this and that. After the eldest daughter of the Lou family got married, she became someone else's wife. Her husband didn't like Lou Li when he saw that he was always like this. The relationship between brother-in-law and brother-in-law has never been very good. , Originally, I still endured it for the sake of my wife. Later, when Lou Li owed money playing cards outside and was chased by someone, he gave the address of his sister's home to them, and the debt collector ran to him. The color TV and refrigerator in my sister’s house were all moved away to pay off the debt. After his brother-in-law found out, he almost got into a fight with Lou Li, and the eldest daughter of Lou’s family protected her younger brother, and the couple almost divorced because of this.”

"So the eldest daughter of the Lou family started to hate her younger brother Lou Li because of this incident?"

"How is it possible! If the eldest daughter of the Lou family got angry with Lou Li so easily, she wouldn't spoil him like this!" Aunt Wu said in a tone of mourning and anger, "That's it, she still Standing on the younger brother's side, I would rather separate from my husband than listen to my husband and cut off contact with my younger brother."

Tian Mi remained silent, waiting for Aunt Wu's next words. From her previous narration, it can be judged that Lou Li must have done something extremely disappointing.

Sure enough, Aunt Wu went on to say: "The eldest daughter of the Lou family has been separated from her husband for almost half a year. At the beginning, her husband came here to look for her and begged her to go home. Later, seeing that she was so determined, Lou Li kept standing by her side again." Fanning the flames, he just stopped coming. Lou Li's sister finally sent Lou Li to the demolition team, but after only three or four months, he caused so much trouble and was fired. When he came back, his sister said he, he It's also full of nonsense."

"Yeah, I know that!" The middle-aged man who said before that Lou Li must take revenge, took the initiative to finish the conversation at this time, "Don't our two families live close to each other, don't mention how fierce the quarrel was between us! Everyone could hear it clearly! Lou Wei cried and scolded for most of the night, yelling loudly, saying that she almost broke up her own family because of Lou Li, and in the end, she got him such endless troubles. It's like I owed him in my previous life, and I'm being demanded in this life."

The first time Tian Mi heard the name Lou Wei, it was obviously Lou Li's sister: "What happened after that?"

"Later, the next morning, Lou Wei packed her luggage and left. She scolded her when she went out, saying that she would never be a fool again, and gave up her husband and child for such a vampire-like brother! She also said that if Lou Li If she dares to get into trouble with debts or other things, she will completely end this matter!" The middle-aged man smacked his lips, "Anyway, I have never seen Lou Wei look like that before, and she looks like that!"

Aunt Wu nodded hurriedly, indicating to Tian Mi that what she wanted to say was actually the same.

Tian Mi quickly wrote down these important points, and asked about Lou Wei's home address by the way. Lou Wei herself should take care of the seriously injured Lou Li in the hospital at the moment, and maybe go to Lou Wei's home after visiting the last passenger. , It is also a good idea to chat with her husband about Lou Li.

Leaving Lou Li's home, the next stop is naturally the fifth passenger with a slightly special identity - Shi Yong.

However, Tian Mi had a big problem in wanting to know Shi Yong's personality and other information, and how to achieve it.According to the household registration records, Shi Yong has been divorced for many years, and he lives alone in City C.

Moreover, he was the owner of a privately owned coal mine before. After reselling the coal mine, he has been unemployed. He has neither a unit nor relatives and friends to visit.

Finally, Tian Mi decided to take a look at the private coal mine that Shi Yong used to own.

Private coal mines do not have such regulations as weekends, and all workers adopt a rotation system. Tian Mi and Lu Xiangdong drove for a long time before finally arriving at this private mine, which is far away from the downtown area of ​​C City.

Speaking of the former boss Shi Yong, many old workers who have worked in this mine for a long time are very impressed, and they have a good evaluation of Shi Yong.

"Boss Shi is a good man! At that time, my father was seriously ill and needed surgery. My family didn't have enough money. In order to make more money, I kept working in the mines for others. Later, Boss Shi found out and took 2 yuan. The money was slapped in front of me, saying that it would be deducted from my salary in the future, but he didn’t really deduct a penny from me afterwards. I saved it all and paid it back, but he didn’t want it either. He also said that I should keep it for my dad to buy. Nutrients." When a miner who looked like he was in his 30s talked about Shi Yong, his eyes were filled with admiration.

"How is the profit of this mine?" Tian Mi didn't know anything about the mining industry, so she had to ask the miners for advice.

The miners all said that although the scale of this mine is not large, the benefits are definitely considered good among coal mines of the same size.

"Then why did Shi Yong sell the mine?" Tian Mi was very puzzled.

However, the workers in the coal mine obviously can't answer this question. They are only responsible for doing their own work and receiving wages from the boss. As for why the boss sold his business, this is obviously beyond their understanding.

So Tian Mi found the current owner of this coal mine.

The current boss, surnamed Qian, is a man in his early thirties. From head to toe, he exudes a kind of arrogance after getting rich. After Tian Mi explained the reason for his visit, a sneering smile appeared on his face.

"Why does Shi Yong sell mines? Because he owes money and still doesn't pay! This is the first time I've seen a person who can starve to death while holding a chicken that lays golden eggs!" He and Lu Xiangdong said, "Additionally, there was an accident before, and I lost a lot of money to go in. I may not be able to tell the details, but when Shi Yong sold the mine to me, he was already a skinny donkey!"

"Has there been an accident in this mine?"

"It happened, it must have happened two years ago, I don't know the specific reason, and I'm not interested in asking, but I heard Shi Yong said that he paid a lot of money to the injured workers, and gave the dead workers a lot of money. One pays more, and more than half of the family fortune is lost in one fell swoop."

When Boss Qian talked about this matter, he didn't say it clearly, but his face was full of disdain, as if he felt very stupid about Shi Yong's high compensation to the workers.

"So, Shi Yong resold it because he was overwhelmed by the compensation and couldn't support the mine?" Tian Mi asked tentatively.

Boss Qian waved his hand: "Of course not, he is a well-known prodigal, a bad gambler! Because of his addiction to gambling, he lost all his family property, and later he couldn't even get the money to pay the workers' wages. I had to borrow everywhere, and then I owed a whole lot of debts. It was really hard to turn around, and no one dared to lend him any more money, so he sold the mine to me."

Besides, Boss Qian didn't know anything about Shi Yong's other situation.Tian Mi had no choice but to give up and left the coal mine.

Back in the urban area, they made a special trip to the house of Lou Li's sister, Lou Wei. They knocked on the door for a long time but no one answered. Then a child who sounded only six or seven years old came in and told Tian Honey, my father accompanied my mother to the hospital to see my uncle.

This made Tian Mi a little disappointed, and it also meant that all the visiting tasks for this day were over, and then he had to face the stressful "appreciation banquet" at home.

"Let's go, buy something, and go to your house." Walking out of Lou Wei's apartment, Lu Xiangdong said to Tian Mi.
