Chapter 153 The Truth
“Well,” the clerk nodded, “The County Public Security Bureau sent someone here, and they asked to see this file by name.”
“What time?”
< br>"About an hour ago," the clerk looked at the file in Jiang Cheng's hand and said with a strange expression: "It was just dawn and I was still sleeping, but I was woken up by a knock on the door."
"When someone came in, they called by name and asked to see the files of this case. How did I know that it had happened so long ago? The case was found after a long search of archived information.”
"I didn't expect that not long after I put it back, you guys came again." The clerk touched his nose awkwardly, and then whispered: "If I had known better, I wouldn't have put it back."
"Here he comes. What does he look like?" Chen Xiaomeng asked.
The clerk blinked, as if he didn't understand what he meant, and said vaguely: "It's from the County Public Security Bureau, wearing their clothes, and carrying a cloth bag."
"I'm asking what that person looks like?" Chen Xiaomeng seemed to realize something, her emotions were a little out of control, and her voice became louder, "A man or a woman?"
"Woman ,” the guy replied immediately.
An inexplicable emotion flashed through the eyes of the women Jiang Cheng and Chen Xiaomeng at the same time.
“One woman or two women?”
The guy seemed confused as to why the county leaders were interested in people from the county public security bureau, but he vaguely felt that there seemed to be a relationship. He was looking for something very important, so he stopped thinking about it and recalled: “There was only one woman who came in to look up information. As for I don’t know if there’s anyone outside the door.”
“Do you remember what that woman looks like?”
“This.” The guy looked embarrassed, “She wore it. Wearing a big-brimmed hat, I was just looking for information for her. It was dark at the time, so I didn’t pay attention.”
At this time, the expression of Jiang Cheng, a woman who came alone to the Anping Town Chronicle to investigate the abduction case in Xiaoshijian Village 20 years ago, became more and more intriguing.
He immediately thought of the missing Yu Man and Li Lu.
Although the visitor was wearing police clothes, Jiang Cheng felt that at least for him, it was not difficult to get such clothes.
Chen Xiaomeng was obviously aware of this, and asked quickly: "Do you remember which direction she went after she left?"
"I know this," the guy swallowed. Foaming at the mouth, he pointed to the door and said: "She turned right after going out."
Chen Xiaomeng immediately stood up and walked out.
“Wait a minute,” Jiang Cheng called out to the former, and then looked up and down at the clerk with obscure eyes, which made the latter’s skin crawl.
"Did that person do anything else when he came here?" Jiang Cheng asked seriously.
"She also borrowed the villagers' records of Xiaoshijian Village," the clerk replied cautiously, for fear of accidentally angering the county leaders.
Chen Xiaomeng suddenly stopped when she heard this.
"Where are the villagers' records?" Jiang Cheng tapped the table with his fingers and narrowed his eyes slightly.
The man immediately went back to look for it. In less than a minute, the notebook with the villagers' record book of Xiaoshijian Village, Anping Town appeared in Jiang Cheng's hand.
He looked through it pretendingly.
But just half a minute later, Jiang Cheng's pupils suddenly narrowed, and he found a familiar name on it: Liu Cunyi.
The word "Village Chief" is written in the position column.
He is the current village chief of Xiaoshijian Village, and he is also the one who invited Jiang Cheng and others to come to Xiaoshijian Village.
But what Jiang Cheng is really interested in is not this, but the brackets after Liu Cunyi's name.
The words "Qian Jianguo" are filled in the brackets crookedly.
Chen Xiaomeng's face darkened when she saw this scene. She immediately thought of the three tablets found in the ruins of the Qian family ancestral hall: Qian Jianguo, Qian Jianshe, and Qian Jianxiu.
It turns out that the current village chief of Xiaoshijian Village is Qian Jianguo, the son of the old village chief Qian who survived that year. He just changed his name to avoid being chased by ghosts.
No wonder.
Now what he did can be explained.
The reason why Su Ying burned down the Qian family ancestral hall but left only the memorial tablets of Qian Jianguo and Qian Jianxiu was to remind everyone that these three people faked their death and they are still alive.
According to the village records, the Qian family had a total of 5 children, of which the eldest and second eldest child died. The cause of death is unknown. Qian Jianguo was the third eldest child. After changing his name, he became the village head of Xiaoshijian Village.
Qian Jianshe is the fourth child, after him
After Jiang Cheng turned over a page, he suddenly found that the page with the money for construction information was missing, and there were uneven jagged edges at the bottom of the page.
Obviously, it was torn off secretly.
“Asshole,” Chen Xiaomeng cursed secretly.
Jiang Cheng didn't shy away from his friends and took out the photos he found in the abandoned building of Qian's family from his pocket.
After comparing some physical information, Jiang Cheng confirmed that the one carrying the shotgun on his shoulder was the Orion boss Qian Jianye, the one holding the abacus was the second-oldest businessman Qian Jianlin, and the one holding the book was the third-oldest Qian Jianguo , now changed his name to Liu Cunyi and serves as the current village head of Xiaoshijian Village.
Then the remaining person wearing a light blue apron should be Lao Si Qian Jianshe.
"It's the owner of Anping Hotel," Chen Xiaomeng lowered her voice.
She remembered that the boss’s surname was also Liu, and that he wore an apron and worked in the kitchen all year round, and his skills were quite good.
He is responsible for running the hotel in the town, and then taking care of his disfigured sister Qian Jianxiu.
At the same time, he is also responsible for guiding the "elite men" attracted by the generous rewards. The previous dispute between him and the village chief and his group was just a play staged by the two brothers.
The purpose is to gain the trust of Jiangcheng and his party.
Jiang Cheng took a deep breath and slowly exhaled it.
This should be the whole case.
Then they stopped talking nonsense with the guy, got up and left directly.
The waiter who was attacked by two groups of "big shots" breathed a long sigh of relief. At the same time, he silently recited the blessings of his ancestors in his heart, and he must not lose his job because of this.
"But it's quite strange," the clerk muttered quietly as he packed up the tables and chairs. "Why do they all have weird accents? Are they all assigned from other places?"
He shook his head and continued. He immersed himself in wiping the tables and chairs, and didn't stop until the wooden table was completely polished.
After leaving Zhenzhi Hall, Jiangcheng Chen Xiaomeng immediately accelerated and rushed towards Anping Hotel.
They originally thought that Li Lu Yuman was trapped in Xiaoshijian Village, and might even have suffered an accident.
But the facts told them that they thought too much.
One of them, or even two of them, had already left Xiaoshijian Village before them. Chen Xiaomeng had not felt this feeling of being suppressed everywhere for a long time, which made her very aggrieved.
There are many people who pretend to be pigs and eat tigers, but this time they were mistaken.
"Who do you think it will be?" Chen Xiaomeng asked coldly: "Or are the two of them collaborating?"
Jiang Cheng also put away his previous joking attitude and became serious. , "It should be one person, the goal of two people is too obvious," he said as he walked, "And do you think we can leave so smoothly without leaving anyone in the village?"
