Chapter 483 Threat
"Did something happen?" Lin Wan'er asked, her voice was very pleasant.
It seemed that he had been alone for too long, and after a few more words, the old man couldn't stop talking.
The gray-haired old man's eyes were no longer bright, but when talking about this matter, the old man's expression couldn't help but change a little.
Fearing that he would be disturbed by others, Jiang Cheng pushed the old man to a more secluded place on the side of the road.
This should have been a garden, but no one had taken care of it for a long time. Now it has been abandoned, and the flowerbed is full of weeds.
"Alas." The old man hesitated for a moment before speaking, "It's been almost 20 years since that happened. I was repairing cars in front of the community at that time. Now many people have forgotten it."
Looking in the direction of the villa, the old man slowly said: "There was a family living there before. I heard that the male owner was a businessman and his family conditions were excellent."
"At that time, it was not like now. To be able to afford such a villa, you need not only money, but also connections."
"That woman" The old man seemed to recall the past again. He turned his head and looked at Jiang Cheng who was sitting beside him. He paused and said: "I am not talking nonsense. That woman is pretty. Compared with your fiancée, she is not much worse."
"Looks, figure, nothing to pick."
"When they first moved in, many people envied them, and their family treated their neighbors kindly."
"By the way." The old man said: "They also have a child."
"Boy or girl?" Jiang Cheng asked.
"Boy, about 1 or 2 years old, looks very cute."
Jiang Cheng's eyes flashed something, and it seemed that some speculation was unsuccessful.
According to the old man's description, this should be a very harmonious family. The man is successful in his career, the woman is gentle, and there is a lovely child.
Jiang Cheng stared at the old man intently, waiting for the next step.
And the turning point.
There must be a reason why the man and the woman quarreled like this.
"But later everyone gradually found that something was wrong." The old man shook his head and his tone changed. "They moved in in winter. At that time, they wore a lot of clothes and couldn't see anything. But when it came to the turn of spring and summer the next year, it couldn't be hidden."
"The woman's arms and legs were covered with scars." The old man lowered his voice, "Most of them were new wounds, and they looked very pitiful."
"Who would have thought that the man who looked like a good person could do such a cruel thing behind his back."
"Later, the neighbors nearby also said that in the dead of night, they could hear the sound of falling, as well as the crying of women and children."
At this point, the old man's face suddenly became angry, "What's more, he actually did it to his own child!"
"The child also has injuries?" Jiang Cheng frowned and asked. (っ◔◡◔)っ
"Yeah." The old man nodded, looking very angry.
"Do you know why?"
"What else could it be? The woman was too beautiful, so there were a lot of rumors. The man suspected that she had something with someone else outside. He drank too much and got angrier and angrier. He went back and beat her."
This reason was too simple and crude, Jiang Cheng thought.
"Later, I heard that the man found a nanny, saying that she was taking care of the children at home, but in fact, when he was not at home, he found someone to watch the woman and see if she did anything to let him down." The old man continued.
"From then on, the woman basically did not leave the house. The man did not allow it, and the neighbors could not see her, but the sound of beating and scolding, as well as the woman's crying, could still be heard at night."
"It's like this, no one helped to call the police?" Lin Wan'er's pleasant voice came, but no matter how you listen to it, it was mixed with a chill.
The old man frowned unnaturally and avoided Lin Wan'er's sight.
It can be seen that the neighbors were just gossiping, and no one wanted to offend a rich and powerful man for an unfamiliar woman.
Lin Wan'er smiled and said nothing.
"What happened later?" Since the incident had already happened, Jiang Cheng was more concerned about the truth.
"Later," the old man swallowed his saliva and lowered his voice very low, "Then the boy died."
"Dead?"
"Yeah." The old man said, "It was quite sudden. I was also shocked when I heard the news."
"How did he die?"
The old man shook his head, "I don't know about this, but not long after, the woman disappeared. Some people privately said that she was sent to a mental hospital by the man."
"She must have been unable to bear such a blow and went crazy." The old man let out a long breath, his tone full of regret.
It seems that this woman is the woman in Ward 624.
From the old man's mouth, I learned that the woman's name was Xiang Nan.
The man's name was Yin Zhenliang.
The old man didn't say much about what happened later. He only heard that the man named Yin Zhenliang killed Xiang Nan later.
As for how and where he killed her, he didn't know.
This was spread by neighbors in the same community.
Since then, everyone has kept their distance from this villa. Even if they pass by, they will speed up their pace, thinking it is unlucky.
Over time, this place has been abandoned and has become what it is now.
After saying goodbye to the old man, Lin Wan'er seemed very interested in the villa and planned to go in and take a look, there might be clues inside.
But Jiang Cheng rejected it. This villa looks very gloomy from the outside. If you really go in, you don't know what will happen.
If it wasn't Lin Wan'er who came by, Jiang Cheng might have given it a try.
On the way back, Jiang Cheng looked at the scenery outside the window, and when he thought of what Blind Zheng said, a hypothesis emerged in his mind.
Get off the car, go back to the hospital, and go upstairs.
After opening the door, Huai Yi and Cao Yang were already waiting in the room.
Judging from their expressions, they also gained a lot.
Sit down, without any nonsense, Jiang Cheng began to introduce the clues he had inquired about. After hearing about Xiang Nan's experience, the reaction of several women was very strong.
"It seems that this Yin Zhenliang is a beast in human form. He often beats Xiang Nan and even attacks children!" Yu Yu clenched her fists.
In her opinion, this is simply unreasonable.
Compared with her reaction, Huai Yi's expression was slightly calmer, "I wonder, what is his purpose in doing this?"
"I don't think it's just a simple vent of dissatisfaction." Huai Yi raised his head and looked at Jiang Cheng. He had an inexplicable trust in the latter.
Maybe he came to save himself.
"Why do I feel like it's a threat?" Cao Yang scratched his hair and continued, "Do you remember what Blind Zheng said?"
"He said that the woman's husband hooked up with a woman of special status, and the other party couldn't tolerate the woman, so he asked someone to issue an appraisal and defined the woman as having mental problems."
"Yin Zhenliang beat her so much and even attacked the child. Could it be that he was threatening Xiang Nan to leave him?"
