Era: Craftsmen in the Siheyuan

Chapter 220 Sherlock Holmes – Yong

"Bang bang bang."

The police knocked on the door.

After a while, someone came out and looked out from the crack in the door.

"Who are you?" Sister Ying asked without opening the door.

"Police, I have something to ask you."

Sister Ying was suddenly startled and panicked for a moment, but she thought that her family had already dealt with all the traces.

Then he took a deep breath and said, "Oh, it's comrades from the police. So many of you are so frightening that I dare not open the door directly. Wait a moment, and I will open the door right now."

While talking, Sister Ying opened the door.

With the police around, Xu Deyong naturally didn't speak, but looked at Sister Ying keenly. "

The older police comrade said: "Let me ask you something, have you seen this person Chen Zuwang in the past few days?"

Ma Fei said: "I found out something. The woman named Sister Ying has several lovers..."

The policeman said: "If there is no evidence for this matter, don't act rashly. I hope it's just a guess. It's best to find someone. You can go look for it again."

He called Ma Fei to give some instructions, and Ma Fei nodded and left.

"it is good."

As the saying goes: "It's nothing to hope for, but nothing to fear."

The two sides separated, and Xu Deyong took Ma Fei to continue searching, but naturally found nothing.

Xu Deyong already had a bad premonition in his heart. Now two days ago, Chen Zuwang was playing cards with those people, and they disappeared after leaving.

"Okay, please pay attention to yourself. Remember to inform us if there is any news about Chen Zuwang." The policeman waved his hand.

The two police officers went in and looked around carefully. After finding nothing, they came out and said, "There have been some bad rumors about you recently. I hope you will pay attention and don't let us discover any inappropriate behavior."

After hearing the information from several people, Xu Deyong frowned slightly and asked, "Did those card players talk about anyone else?"

An hour later, Ma Fei ran back panting and said: "Brother Deyong, I found out that Ding Hongxi doesn't have a regular job. It sounds like they are doing some work."

Xu Huizhen went over and comforted her: "Sister Xueru, maybe she has gone somewhere else. We will look for her again tomorrow, or she may come back by herself."

No one was found, so naturally no one was left to drink.

Chen Xueru said a little tiredly: "Thank you everyone, tonight everyone has two taels of wine each as my inviter."

In the afternoon, the boy Ma Fei came in a hurry.

……

Chen Xueru said: "I hope so. I'm afraid that if he really does something bad, my mother won't be able to bear it."

One day later, Xu Deyong continued to search for more than a day with help, and returned home for lunch at noon.

Those people may not want to tell the police about some things. Because of the relationship between Yu Xun and Ma Fei, they may be able to get some other clues.

Everyone gathered in the tavern and said that they had gained nothing.

"Yes." Ma Fei then said a few more names.

"Hey." Xu Huizhen sighed softly and said, "If Chen Zuwang is really good, Sister Xueru's family will really be left with orphans and widowers. Then even though Chen Zuwang is incompetent, he still has a man when things happen at home."

Chen Xueru obviously also thought of this. Although she usually didn't like to see this brother, she would be a little sad if she really lost him. After all, they grew up together.

Sister Ying quickly moved out of the way and said, "Comrades from the public security department, you can watch as you like."

And this Sister Ying didn't tell the truth at that time.

If according to what those people said, Chen Zuwang went to find a woman after leaving, then the clue would have ended with the woman named Sister Ying.

Xu Deyong nodded and said, "You're right, this Sister Ying just now definitely didn't tell the truth."

To untie the bell, the person who tied it must also solve the mystery from Sister Ying.

Sister Ying said: "Oh, comrade police, I was wrongly accused..."

The group of people left the alley, and the police officer said: "It is not yet certain about Chen Zuwang's condition, but Sister Ying has certain suspicions, but there is no evidence. The main reason is that Chen Zuwang's life and death cannot be determined."

Mr. Niu waved his hand and said: "No, we can't help here, no reward for nothing."

Xu Deyong said: "The matter has reached this point. We can only see people alive and dead."

Ma Fei immediately stood up and said, "I'll ask again."

Xu Deyong narrowed his eyes and said, "This Ding Hongxi is on both lists. Is there any more information about this person?"

Returning to the tavern in the evening, many people helped search for Chen Xueru's sake, such as Mr. Niu, Mr. Pian and others.

Now that a big living person has disappeared out of thin air, and so many people have searched for him without seeing him, it is possible that the worst case scenario has occurred.

The policeman said: "Let's go in and take a look."

Sister Ying smiled and said, "Chen Zuwang, I have seen him a few days ago, but not recently."

Xu Deyong said: "What did you find out?"

Xu Huizhen asked: "Still no news?"

Xu Deyong said: "Well, I think it's probably more serious than bad."

"No more." Xu Deyong said.

Ma Fei slapped his head and said, "Oh, by the way, this person is Liao Yucheng's brother-in-law."

Xu Deyong's eyes lit up when he heard this, and his mind changed quickly. With this relationship, a hypothetical closed loop appeared.

Liao Yucheng was taken advantage of by Chen Xueru and targeted Chen Zuwang for revenge, so he asked his brother-in-law Ding Hongxi to take action and accidentally killed someone.

Sister Ying is probably an insider.

Maybe the place where the murder occurred was Sister Ying's residence.

In an era before cameras and DNA testing, and without direct witnesses, it was difficult to find people and evidence.

Seeing that Xu Deyong didn't speak, Ma Fei said anxiously: "Brother Deyong, do you mean there is something wrong with Ding Hongxi? It's simple. I'll find two people to tie this guy up and torture him."

Xu Deyong said angrily: "It is against the law for you to set up a private execution hall like this."

Ma Fei said: "What should we do?"

Xu Deyong thought for a moment and said, "Let's go meet this person first."

The two came to wait near Ding Hongxi's house.

At this time, Ding Hongxi was also very anxious at home, but after two days, no news was the best news.

He didn't go to Sister Ying's place. If he knew that the police had found Sister Ying to ask about the situation, he would be too timid to stay at home. He would run to the countryside for shelter first.

He had smoked several packs of cigarettes in the past two days and exhausted the inventory at home.

Mother Ding said angrily: "Taking, tacking, Tiantian knows how to do it. No matter how much money I have, I can't withstand your method of doing it. You won't be able to save some money to get married."

Ding Hongxi said: "Mom, I'm annoyed, please stop nagging me."

Mother Ding said: "Then don't stay at home. If you go out to make money, I won't nag you."

Ding Hongxi was about to go out to buy cigarettes, so he patted his butt and said, "Okay, why don't I leave then!"

After saying that, he slammed the door and left.

"Hey, hey, it should be him, he looks like a human and a dog." Ma Fei said quickly when he saw the person coming out.

Xu Deyong narrowed his eyes slightly when he saw Ding Hongxi. This guy's figure seemed familiar. He recalled the scene carefully, and the picture quickly settled on the man riding a tricycle that day.

Xu Deyong immediately said: "Ma Fei, keep an eye on this guy first, and I'll confirm something."

After saying that, he rode away, leaving Ma Fei a little confused, but he still followed Ding Hongxi as he was told.

Xu Deyong came to the "Crane Club" on the street, called Qiangzi out and asked in a deep voice: "Qiangzi, after the rain stopped two days ago, did you lend your car to someone else?"

Qiangzi was shocked and quickly denied: "No, how could it be! How could I lend my car to others!"

Xu Deyong stared at him and said, "You lent your car to Ding Hongxi, right?"

Qiangzi was stunned for a moment and said, "How did you..."

Seeing him say this, Xu Deyong suddenly understood that it was indeed the case, and a complete closed loop of murder and dumping the body was formed.

Xu Deyong was faintly excited, and he experienced some of the happiness of "Conan".

After analyzing it layer by layer, the truth is in front of you.

Qiangzi quickly whispered: "Deyong, Master Yong, I admit that I lent my car to Ding Hongxi for a period of time. You must not tell anyone about this, otherwise I will be fined."

Xu Deyong said in a deep voice: "Qiangzi, it is no longer a matter of whether to be fined or not. You may get into trouble!"

Qiangzi looked confused and said, "What trouble can I get into if I borrow a car?"

Xu Deyong said: "Don't ask yet, let me ask you, how long do you remember lending Ding Hongxi the car?"

Qiangzi said casually: "More than an hour."

"Be specific." Xu Deyong said solemnly.

Qiangzi thought for a while and said, "It should be less than two hours. I can't remember the specific time."

Xu Deyong estimated the time. If it was really Ding Hongxi who killed someone and buried the body, leaving aside the time of disposing of the body and digging the hole, then the time on the road would be one hour, and the round trip would be halved. In that half hour's journey, there would be a rough location.

Of course, this is all just his imagination... Hey, his mind seems to have become brighter.

Xu Deyong has no law enforcement power, so he would naturally go to the police for such matters.

Before that, he first wanted to talk to Chen Xueru and let Qiangzi go back. He went straight to the silk shop.

After hearing Xu Deyong's analysis, Chen Xueru said angrily with a pretty face: "It must be Liao Yucheng and Ding Hongxi who murdered my brother. Let's go to the police station now and get the generals under control first."

Xu Deyong said quickly: "This is just my guess, it may not be accurate."

Chen Xueru looked at him and said, "I believe you, thank you."

The two came to the police station. After listening to Xu Deyong's analysis, the police took it very seriously. After all, human life was at stake.

The responsible police officer said: "Because the time is short and we have not seen the body, we can only ask Ding Hongxi to assist in the investigation first, and we will talk about Liao Yu after she becomes a child."

Two police officers were immediately dispatched to summon Ding Hongxi.

Xu Deyong discussed the location of the "burial" with the responsible police officer.

Mark the "Crane Club", Sister Ying's house and other places on the map, and infer several locations based on the time and the direction of Ding Hongxi who met that day.

Among them is the cemetery outside Shashakou.

However, their analysis was a bit redundant. After Ding Hongxi was taken to the police station, his legs began to tremble a little.

When the police asked him where he was and what he did that day, Ding Hongxi's answers were confusing.

When Qiangzi borrowed his tricycle and asked him what he was pulling with his tricycle, he couldn't hold it in anymore. He burst into tears and said, "Comrade Public Security, I said, I said, I really He didn’t kill Chen Zuwang, he died because he was so excited by playing with women..."

Next, Ding Hongxi explained everything that happened, and Sister Ying was subsequently arrested and brought to justice.

The police still have to dig out Chen Zuwang's body. Whether what Ding Hongxi said is true or not, the specific cause of Chen Zuwang's death cannot be determined until an autopsy.

Xu Deyong accompanied Chen Xueru to confirm Chen Zuwang's identity.

After a few glances, Chen Xueru turned pale and turned her head.

The police officer in charge shook hands with Xu Deyong and said, "Thank you, Comrade Xu Deyong. It was you who provided important analysis and clues that enabled this case to be solved so quickly."

Xu Deyong said quickly: "I am also a blind cat who meets a dead mouse."

The police officer said half-jokingly and half-seriously: "Well, you blind cat is not easy. You go back and wait for the news. When the autopsy results come out, we will notify the family immediately."

Xu Deyong nodded and took Chen Xueru home.

When Chen's mother saw them coming back, she quickly said, "How is it?"

Chen Xueru whispered: "Mom, my brother is gone."

"Ah." Mother Chen suddenly started crying and said, "My ancestor Wang..."

Then the two mothers hugged each other and cried.

On the side, little Hou Kui saw that his mother and grandma were crying, so he started to cry too, and the little nanny Erya also wiped her tears.

Xu Deyong stood aside with a slight embarrassment, and it was either right or wrong to leave.

The couple cried for a while. Chen Xueru helped Chen's mother sit down, wiped the tears on her face, sent Xu Deyong to the courtyard and said: "Deyong, thank you for your help these days. I don't know what to say. At this point, you should go back first. When the results come out from the police station, I may need to trouble you to accompany me."

"Yes." Xu Deyong nodded and said, "If you tell me then, I'll go back first. My condolences."

Chen Xueru nodded, and the usually charming and strong woman showed a hint of weakness.

In fact, I think she really wants to rest in Xu Deyong's arms for a while, but it's a pity...

……

Xu Deyong returned to the tavern. Ma Fei, who had already returned first, had told everyone about Chen Zuwang's death. Of course, he didn't know the specific reason.

Seeing Xu Deyong come back, Ma Fei looked at him with admiration and admiration and asked: "Brother Deyong, what exactly is going on?"

Cai Quanwu and others couldn't help but look at him.

Xu Deyong said: "This matter involves other people's privacy. The autopsy has not been released yet, so you should not inquire. All announcements from the police station shall prevail."

Kong Yuqin, Ma Liansheng and others were still a little disappointed that they had not heard the first-hand news.

However, the news of Chen Zuwang's death became the hottest topic in the tavern for a while, and various gossips were flying around.

There are all kinds of things like "peach sex" and "murder".

On the other hand, Liao Yucheng was also suspended immediately, and this time there is a high probability that he will be directly expelled from the street.

Fan Jinyou was gloating when he heard the news, he deserved it!

All in all, he and Liao Yucheng had both caught Chen Xueru's attention, and now their situation was worse than the other.

Now Chen Xueru's brother is dead again.

This bitch is a bit evil!

At night, Xu Deyong and his wife were lying on the bed and talking quietly.

Xu Huizhen said: "Deyong, if something like this happens to Sister Xueru's family, please help me when it comes to handling it."

"Yes." Xu Deyong said, "I know, wife, you are so kind."

Xu Huizhen sighed slightly: "You said, a good living person will be gone if you don't."

Xu Deyong stroked her and said: "No one knows which will come first, tomorrow or the accident, so we must cherish the present moment."
