Chapter 576 New Variables, Misjudgment
"This Luo Bao was not easy when he was in college."
The vehicles were driving rapidly on the highway, and the people talking were when they were new.
After basically confirming that the bone girl was Luo Ting, Chen Yi asked him to start a comprehensive investigation of Luo Bao. Just now, he discovered something amazing on the Internet.
"Isn't it simple?" Chen Yi turned his head. He Xin next to him put the laptop on his lap. The text and pictures of the web page were displayed on the screen. "What have you discovered?"
Shi Xindao: "Back then, the first place in the National Physics Competition for Middle School Students and the Academic Physics Competition for College Students was Luo Bao.
It's the same person, there's a photo, it's unmistakable. "
He turned the computer screen slightly so that Chen Yi could see it clearly.
Chen Yi came closer, and the picture showed Luo Bao standing on the podium, high-spirited.
Qin Fei, the co-pilot, turned back: "No wonder Luo Bao's parents said Luo Ting was not worthy of their son, but why did she later join a construction company? Didn't she even go to graduate school?
If he is so good in physics, even if he scores zero in other subjects, the school must train him as a special talent, right? It’s not even a problem to be admitted to a Ph.D. "
He Xin speculated: "Maybe at this time, he discovered that Luo Ting was missing, or found that Luo Ting had been killed, and lost the motivation to continue studying."
Qin Fei: "Team He thinks Luo Ting's death has nothing to do with Luo Bao?"
When Hexin didn't answer immediately, he took out his mobile phone and found one of the many photos. These photos were all taken by him in the room where Luo Ting once lived.
The photo is Luo Ting's notebook, not a diary, with some messy things written on it.
But on the last page of the notebook, two lines of words were written in completely different handwriting:
No one helped me to reach the top of the mountain by walking on the snow.
This was not written by Luo Ting. It must have been written by Luo Bao. Perhaps Luo Bao gave this notebook to Luo Ting. When sending it, he added two sentences at the end to tell his lover that the future was promising.
The two sentences are from Xu Xiake's "Qingyun Zhi", which is very domineering.
Now that we have found out the honors Luobao has received, it can prove that he was not bragging back then.
Looking at the photos on his phone, He Xin said: "This can be regarded as Luo Bao's promise to Luo Ting, right? It doesn't matter what his family opposes, and it doesn't matter if he comes from a poor background. As long as he is given time, he can realize his own value through his own efforts. Give Luo Ting the life she wants.
I personally think that Luo Ting's death should have nothing to do with Luo Bao, and that he placed the bones on the island in the middle of the lake.
What does Team Chen think? "
Chen Yigang was about to speak when the phone rang. It was Jiang Fanlei.
He signaled He Xin to wait a moment and connected.
"Hello?"
Jiang Fanlei: "Chen Yi, are you back?"
Chen Yi: "On the way, what are your instructions?"
Jiang Fanlei: "Has Baigu's identity been confirmed? Why did you want Zuoqiu Anqing's photo a few days ago?"
He held this matter in for several days, and when he couldn't hold it in any longer, he called to inquire.
Chen Yi: "Keep it secret."
Jiang Fanlei: "Okay, didn't you ask me to report on Luo Bao and Zuoqiu Anqing at any time? Let me tell you, Zuoqiu Anqing is not her biological child. She seems to have been abducted to Linli Village in Ningcheng."
This statement made Chen Yi stunned for a moment, and he turned on the speakerphone so that everyone in the car could hear: "Repeat it again."
Jiang Fanlei: "I said Zuoqiu Anqing's parents in Linyi Village, Ningcheng, are not his biological parents."
Qin Fei and He Xin both looked over, with somewhat stunned expressions.
In the child abduction case half a year ago, it was found that Luo Baofei was not his biological child.
In the past two days, I went to Linxuan Village to check the identity of Bai Gu, and found out that Luo Ting was not her biological child.
Why is Zuoqiu Anqing not even his biological child now?
How many biological children are there in Linxuan Village?
"How do you know?" Chen Yi asked calmly.
Jiang Fanlei: "He told me when I had dinner with Cui Hai that Zuoqiu Anqing is his daughter."
Cui Hai?
Chen Yi remembered that Cui Hai was one of the suppliers of the Huxin Island project. At that time, Zuoqiu Anqing interrupted his conversation with Cui Hai, and Cui Hai was still a little angry at the time.
Yes, there is such a person.
After the meal was over, he gradually forgot about it.
On the day when the bones appeared on the island in the center of the lake, Cui Hai was also present as a supplier.
The development of things became more and more dramatic. Chen Yi did not think about the logic at the moment and asked first: "What's going on with Cui Hai? Has he lost a child before?"
Jiang Fanlei: "Not only did he lose his children, but his wife also died. He has not been married for so many years."
Chen Yi: "Did you lose the child first and the wife died, or did you lose the child after the wife died?"
Jiang Fanlei: "Well...it's quite strange what your question is. Let me think about it, oh yes, my wife died first, and then the child was lost."
Chen Yi: "How did you die?"
Jiang Fanlei: "Unexpectedly, I lost my footing while climbing the mountain and fell."
Chen Yi: "How did he suddenly know that Zuoqiu Anqing was her daughter? Have you asked?"
Jiang Fanlei: "I asked. Cui Hai was drunk at the wine table. He said whatever he asked. He saw Zuoqiu Anqing wearing a jade pendant given to his granddaughter by his grandma and grandpa around his neck. He suspected that Zuoqiu Anqing was his daughter Guo Wan. So I went for a paternity test and found out that it was really my daughter.”
"Jade pendant?!"
Chen Yi's expression changed, and Shi Xin and the other three were even more confused.
It's a bit messy.
No, it's all chaos.
Isn't that jade pendant passed down from the Luo family's ancestors? Why did it become someone else’s family’s ancestral heirloom?
Old Man Luo is still lying?
etc!
Chen Yi realized that this was a matter of order.
When Old Man Luo said that the jade pendant was an ancestral inheritance, he did not know that Luo Ting was dead. However, when he later learned that his daughter had died, he did not ask about the jade pendant.
Therefore, it is very possible that there is a misunderstanding.
But...it's still not right.
Even if the jade pendant was passed down from another family's ancestors, Cui Hai's daughter should still be Luo Ting. How could the result of the DNA paternity test be Zuoqiu Anqing?
The logic was fragmented, and Chen Yi felt like his head was buzzing.
What the hell is going on with this case?
"Guo Wan?" After coming back to his senses, Chen Yi remembered hearing the name Guo Wan just now, "Isn't it Cui Wan? Cui Hai's daughter is called Guo Wan? Jiang Fanlei, are you trustworthy? Don't talk nonsense."
Jiang Fanlei: "I'm just talking nonsense, let's call him Guo Wan. Guo Wan's grandfather's surname is Guo, and Cui Hai is the daughter-in-law! The child will take his mother's surname!"
Chen Yi: "Uh...Lin Chen, turn around and go back immediately."
Lin Chen was stunned: "Captain, we are on the highway."
Chen Yi: "Get off the highway and turn back."
This piece of information was so explosive that he had to return to Linxuan Village to ask the Luo family and the Zuo family.
Before, he had a premonition that there would be a follow-up to this case, and something big would happen. Could this be the follow-up?
Lin Chen: "Okay!"
Jiang Fanlei noticed something was wrong: "What's wrong? Why does it feel so serious?"
Chen Yi: "We'll talk about it later."
The phone hangs up.
Shi Xinben wanted to say something, but seeing that Chen Yi was already deep in thought, he didn't speak. He must have been unable to clarify the current situation now.
Originally, it was only necessary to investigate the cause of Luo Ting's death. It was suspected that either Zuoqiu Anqing did it or Luo Bao did it. Now Zuoqiu Anqing is not even her biological child, and she has successfully recognized her relationship with Cui Hai, a boss who is engaged in construction materials.
The most incomprehensible thing is that the way Cui Hai initially recognized his daughter was the ancestral jade pendant around Zuoqiu Anqing's neck.
And this jade pendant has always been worn on Luo Ting's neck.
In other words, Cui Hai's daughter should be Luo Ting.
There must be a problem in some link here, which leads to a mess.
The intersection to get off the expressway was not far away, and there was no need to get on the expressway again. Lin Chen chose the national highway after asking.
On the way, Chen Yi called Xie Yunzhi and told him the news. The two parties agreed to meet in Linyi Village again.
The reason why I called Xie Yunzhi was because of the possibility of child abduction and trafficking.
It’s okay to give away a child for free once, but it can’t happen a second time, right?
You will know the truth if you ask Zuo's parents.
When they arrived at Linxuan Village, Xie Yunzhi was already waiting. Chen Yi got off the car at the entrance of the village and strode over.
"What's going on? Is the news accurate?" Xie Yunzhi followed Chen Yi and prepared to enter the village.
Chen Yi looked serious: "We'll talk about it later."
Quickly crossing the village road, the group walked into the dilapidated tile-roofed house again. The old couple sat in the yard as usual, holding hands, with memories everywhere they looked and the past in their hearts.
An atmosphere of sadness spreads around.
Seeing the police coming to the door for the third time, Old Man Luo blinked his cloudy eyes, feeling very strange.
"Young man, why are you back again?"
Chen Yi's voice rang out before he even got close: "Uncle, there is one more thing I forgot to ask. The jade pendant worn around Luo Ting's neck should not be passed down from your Luo family's ancestors, right?"
Old Man Luo forgot whether he had answered or not, and said, "No, I told you, didn't I? Forgot, when that person sent Tingting here thirty years ago, the jade pendant was already around her neck."
Chen Yi: "Are you sure?"
Old Man Luo didn't know why: "Sure."
Chen Yi didn't have any second questions. He turned around and left. His steps were still very fast. He wanted to go to Zuo's house as soon as possible.
On the way, Xie Yunzhi said: "The jade pendant belongs to Luo Ting, so Cui Hai's daughter should be Luo Ting. But Zuoqiu Anqing did not expose this matter and accepted it openly. Is that so?"
Chen Yi said coldly: "I'm afraid it's not just a matter of passive acceptance."
Xie Yunzhi: "Li Daitao is stiff?"
Shi Xin raised the suspicion about Li Daitao's death at the right time: "But Yangcheng said that Cui Hai and Zuoqiu Anqing had done a DNA paternity test. This is the most credible, right?"
Chen Yi shook his head: "It's not even credible. This case is very strange. Now we can't listen to what others say, but have to look at how we investigate it ourselves.
Maybe Old Man Luo lied, maybe there was more than one jade pendant, maybe something happened to Zuoqiu Anqing and Luo Ting when they were growing up, maybe the DNA paternity test was fake.
It's impossible to determine which one is the truth. "
"False?" Xie Yunzhi asked, "Cui Hai must have done the DNA paternity test himself. Zuoqiu Anqing shouldn't be able to do anything about it, right?"
Chen Yi chuckled: "Anything can happen. I suspect the fraud because I remembered something. Qin Fei, tell Xie Zhi where the most authoritative paternity testing agency in Yangcheng is?"
Qin Fei replied: "The Third People's Hospital."
Chen Yi asked again: "Who did we meet near the Third People's Hospital?"
Qin Fei was slightly stunned, and after a moment of reaction, he finally understood: "I met... Zuoqiu Anqing and her suspected current boyfriend."
There is such a thing.
At that time, Chen Yi also called Jiang Fanlei and learned about Jiang Fanlei and Zuoqiu Anqing's breakup. The two also complained that Zuoqiu Anqing was a bit too fast and had a new love just after the breakup.
Hearing this, Xie Yunzhi understood: "Do you suspect that Zuoqiu Anqing's suspected boyfriend is a doctor who does paternity testing? Has she prepared everything in advance?"
When they arrived at Zuo's house, Chen Yi did not continue the conversation and went forward to knock on the door.
Zuo Qiu Anqing's parents were both there.
Chen Yi did not make any preparations and directly asked whether Zuo Cuili was their biological daughter.
This question surprised the couple very much. They avoided their eyes and denied it. However, after Chen Yi proposed to do a DNA paternity test, they reluctantly admitted the fact that Zuo Cuili was not their biological daughter.
Where did it come from? Bought it.
In fact, they did not buy it actively. Thirty years ago, someone came to the village to "sell" and asked if they wanted a daughter. It was very cheap. After discussing, the couple felt that having another daughter was not bad, and the two sides reached a deal.
It sounds as easy as buying vegetables.
More than 30 years have passed, and there is no way to check. They even forgot the seller's appearance.
"Does Zuo Cuili know?"
"She doesn't know."
...
"Are you sure?"
"Are you sure? I never told her. How can I say that?"
...
"Whose jade pendant is this?"
"Old Luo's Tingting, she has been wearing it since she was a child."
Chen Yi led people away and returned to Luo's house again.
The fourth time I visited Old Man Luo, he was numb and didn't speak, waiting for Chen Yi to ask.
Two questions.
First, do you know that Zuo Cuili is not your biological child?
Second, have you told Luo Ting that Zuo Cuili is not your biological child?
The answer is yes.
The night when Old Man Luo decided to tell Luo Ting the truth, he drank too much. Not only did he tell Luo Ting's life experience, but he also betrayed the Zuo family, breaking the unspoken rules of the village.
No matter where the child comes from, it is a biological child. This is the unspoken rule among the villagers.
Not only in Linqi Village, other villages including cities are actually like this. They will not casually tell the life experience of the neighbor's children. That would be quite unkind.
All the questions that should be asked have been asked, and Chen Yi and his group left the village.
This time, there should be no more clues left.
In front of Xie Yunzhi, Chen Yi called Zhuo Yun and asked him to find Cui Hai to get his DNA immediately, and then take it back to the Municipal Bureau to do a DNA paternity test with Bai Gu immediately.
The reason is that it is a routine investigation of the case of Huxin Island, and the other party will not refuse.
Watching Chen Yi put down the phone, Xie Yunzhi said: "Luo Ting told Zuo Qiu Anqing about her life experience, and also told her life experience, right?"
Chen Yi took out a cigarette box, took out a cigarette and handed it to Xie Yunzhi, without saying anything.
Xie Yunzhi took it and lit it, and continued: "Later, Luo Ting left the village and went to Yangcheng. After many twists and turns, she confirmed that she was the child of the Guo family and the Cui family, but she did not recognize them for the time being, and told this to her best friend Zuo Qiu Anqing.
Zuo Qiu Anqing herself is still trying to achieve a class leap, and Luo Ting has returned to the rich family without any effort before graduating from junior high school. She is very jealous and killed Luo Ting to replace her.
Right?"
The Cui family can supply materials for the eye-catching Huxin Island project. It is not an ordinary small company. In Zuo Qiu Anqing's eyes, it can indeed be regarded as a rich family.
Chen Yi slowly exhaled a puff of smoke and nodded, saying, "That's right. Do you want to come with me to investigate? The first crime scene is in your Ningcheng. We have to cooperate."
Xie Yunzhi: "Okay, three hours is not a long time."
The two did not get in the car. They took out the fishing rod from the trunk and went to the river to fish again.
Chen Yi was not in a hurry to go back.
The case was almost clear. As long as the DNA comparison was successful, Zhuo Yun could immediately bring Zuo Qiu Anqing back to the Municipal Bureau.
As for Luo Bao...
He should be a love warrior who wants to find out the truth about his girlfriend's death.
"He suspects Zuo Qiu Anqing but has no evidence, right?" Xie Yunzhi said.
Chen Yi: "It should be, there are two possibilities, either in his cognition, Luo Ting and Zuo Qiu Anqing are sisters who have grown up together, and there is no reason to kill.
Or, he knows all this and keenly judges what Zuo Qiu Anqing wants to do. The reason why he didn't call the police is because he wants to knock her down from the clouds.
A gentleman's revenge is never too late, let Zuo Qiu Anqing think that she has achieved her plan, and finally all her efforts have become a bubble and lost everything. Killing people must also destroy their hearts."
Xie Yunzhi nodded in agreement.
Time passed slowly, and the process of fishing and chatting was always fast. When Chen Yi's phone rang, Xie Yunzhi turned his head subconsciously.
"Hello? Go ahead."
It was Zhuo Yun calling.
"Captain Chen, the results are out, Bai Gu and Cui Hai have no kinship."
Chen Yi stood up suddenly.
This is a rare situation for him, where he has a great deal of confidence in the inference but is severely slapped in the face by the answer.
Seeing Chen Yi's face was not very good, Xie Yunzhi realized something and said in surprise: "Isn't Luo Ting Cui Hai's daughter?"
Chen Yi put down his phone and was silent for a while, then waved his hand and said: "Qin Fei, pack up! Go back to Yangcheng!"
It's time to meet this group of people.
The jade pendant must be Luo Ting's. Since Cui Hai used the jade pendant to identify the girl, Luo Ting should be his daughter, and the paternity test is correct.
Is the speculation too arbitrary?
After all, there are still many unclear points in this case, such as...why Luo Ting was given away for free thirty years ago.
"Chen Yi! Contact me anytime!" Xie Yunzhi shouted from behind.
