Chapter 311: Investigation and Clues
Although these people were dead, Su Xin planned to start an investigation with the people around them to find out what was going on.
The first confessor was a villager from the same village as Xu Maoshan, Xu Maohe and Su Xin directly booked a recent flight online with their mobile phones, and then took a taxi to Dingmao Village.
In the hills dozens of kilometers away from the county seat, a narrow cement road winds and undulates through the village.
The two-story buildings are built against the road, and the ground floor on the side facing the road is made into a commissary.
There are few vehicles and pedestrians on the road, so you can meet each other very lightly, that is, to do small business in the neighborhood.
Su Xin walked into the house, and there was a glass cabinet against the roller shutter door, which contained only a few packets of instant noodles, ham sausages, salt biscuits, mineral water, etc., which were dusty, and there was a layer of dirty greasy on the glass.
There was a manual mahjong table on one side of the room, and five or six people gathered around it, shouting, and touching the mahjong crisply.
A middle-aged woman in a red down jacket glanced up at Su Xin, "What are you buying?" ”
Su Xin pointed to the biscuits, "Help me get a few boxes of biscuits and mineral water." ”
The woman was reluctant to stand up, and a man next to her impatiently pushed her away and sat down in her seat, and said, "Go quickly, go about your business, and I'll help you win the money back." ”
The woman replied casually, walked to the glass cabinet in three or two steps, and looked Su Xin up and down, "How many boxes do you want?" ”
"I'm going to have all three boxes, and I'll get two more bottles of water."
The woman pulled a plastic bag and put it on it, "Twenty-five." ”
While taking the money, Su Xin asked, "I'll inquire personally, do you know where Xu Maohe's family lives?" ”
The woman was stunned for a moment, frowned, and asked vigilantly, "What are you looking for that dead ghost?" ”
Su Xin handed over thirty yuan and responded: "That's the case, my brother and he worked in the same mine at that time, and in order to make money for me to go to college, I borrowed some money from him, but then the mine broke up, and I didn't contact anyone for a long time, and this time I asked here after a lot of connections..."
When she heard the money, the woman's expression softened slightly, "He also lent you money, and he never told me about it." I'm his wife, how much money I borrowed, you can just give it to me. ”
Su Xin hurriedly changed her name to "eldest sister": "That's right, my brother borrowed 200 yuan from many co-workers at that time, after all, they all wanted to send the money home, and they didn't have much money to spare. My brother asked me to hand it over to Xu Mao and my eldest brother in person. And in this way, you can also confront each other face-to-face, although it is only a matter of a few hundred yuan, it is better to make it clear after all. ”
The woman was a little impatient, it turned out that it was only a few hundred dollars, but it was better than nothing, and said, "Let me tell you, the short-lived ghost is dead, I am his wife, if you don't believe it, ask them." ”
Several men and women playing mahjong hurriedly responded: "That's right, big sister, you have found the right person, she is Xu Maohe's wife." ”
Su Xin asked, "May I ask how Xu Mao and the eldest brother died?" Because at that time, I heard my brother say that he also had the strength to be in the mine, and his body was very healthy. ”
Woman: "Hey, I said you're here to buy something or to pay back?" If you're dead, you're dead, you're still here to investigate, are you the police? At that time, so many people saw it, he went crazy and cut his stomach with a kitchen knife, and it was too late to send him to the hospital. ”
Su Xin's mental power tightly locked on the other party's thoughts and extracted a memory that was active at the moment:
The man went to mine with several people in the village, and within two years, the man suddenly came back alone with a bag of money. So he moved his family out of the ravine and built a two-story bungalow on the road, but the house was not yet fully completed, and suddenly one day the man became chattering, like a child who was afraid of the big ass of an adult, and hid everywhere, hiding in the cellar, under the bed, and then ran all over the mountain screaming in terror.
The next night, when a group of house-repairing workers were eating and drinking in the yard, he suddenly took out a kitchen knife, laughed, cut off his hands and feet, and then cut his stomach, grabbed his intestines with the only remaining hand, and dragged it on the ground...
At that time, everyone was stunned by this strange and terrifying scene......
Su Xin withdrew his mental strength, and then the woman's words said, "I'm really sorry for the sad things that aroused you, so I'll give you back the money." ”
Su Xin took out another two hundred and handed them to the other party, "Oh yes, my brother said that he still owes Xu Maoshan two hundred yuan, he said that he is from the same village as Xu Mao and his eldest brother, I don't know how to get to his house?" ”
Before the woman could reply, someone next to her said in a loud voice, "Alas, don't go to that family, there is no one left." ”
"Oh, why? Did they all go out to work? ”
"Alas, it's just a part-time job, and I'm dying outside anyway."
"It's too much of a coincidence that the whole family is like this, right?"
"It seems that there is a family of mental illness or something, and he suddenly fell ill and jumped into the mine and fell to his death."
Another person responded: "Why didn't you see that their family was mentally ill after decades of being together?" ”
"You know, experts say that having a mental illness is having a mental illness. It's really a pity that his daughter, tsk, she looks smart and sensible, and she used to call me uncle every time she came back from school. ”
"Isn't it, I heard that I was admitted to the Teachers College, and I will teach in our village in the future."
Su Xin stood for a while and left, and the situation was basically understood.
Xu Maohe's death was extremely terrifying and abnormal, and it was preliminarily determined that it was related to Xu Minzhu's ghost, she only took revenge on the person who confessed, but did not hurt the innocent.
In this way, the dossier shows that she lured the mine owner's daughter to a remote place and carried out inhumane humiliation and torture, was it because of anger or revenge?
Two girls of the same age, but their identities and status are heaven and earth, and it stands to reason that there can't be much intersection. And just a few days in the mining area during the summer vacation, what is it that has formed such a deep and undying hatred?
The rumors in the villagers' mouths basically match the files she saw, that is, it was determined that Xu Minzhu's family had intermittent mental illness. However, judging from the villagers' accounts, it is likely that they have been framed.
Later, she visited the homes of several other confessors, and the situation was basically the same.
Seven years ago, they both came home with a large sum of money in the same month and then died suddenly.
The death is very strange and even terrifying, or inexplicably eating soil and supporting death; Or hit yourself against a wall until your brains burst and you die.
Su Xin once again flipped out Shi Feng's photocopied file from his mobile phone and saw the column signed by the psychiatrist......
An idea flashed through the alarm clock, and an idea struck.
Almost all of the people who gave the confessions here are dead, but there is also a psychiatrist, who signed it, and must know something.
