058 Order of Death(1/2)
Godmother?
We looked at each other and looked at Tan Xinlian with some confusion.
There was nothing unusual about Tan Xinlian. On the contrary, when she talked about that man, she showed a somewhat happy expression on her face, and the previous sadness disappeared: "Let me introduce to you, this is Mu Chengzhi, my godson. They are
…”
Tan Xinlian generally doesn't know what to say. After all, our status is somewhat embarrassing for Tan Xinlian and Mu Chengzhi now.
I winked at Jiang Xue. Jiang Xue understood what I meant, stood up and said with a smile: "Hello, we are from the criminal police team of the city bureau. We are here to investigate some things."
I observed Mu Chengzhi closely. When Jiang Xue mentioned the Criminal Police Team, I found that Mu Chengzhi's expression was a little dazed. I guessed that he did not understand our purpose.
What makes me curious is that Mu Chengzhi is holding a flower with black petals in his hand. The shape of the flower is similar to the morning glory in the old saying. I have seen similar pictures on the Internet, and I recognized it after a moment's surprise.
The variety of the flower was revealed.
Mandala.
I subconsciously bypassed Mu Chengzhi's hand and glanced around Tan Xinlian's house. Sure enough, there was a small vase on the table behind us, and inside the vase were five flowers similar to those in Mu Chengzhi's hand.
What I don't understand is that one of the five flowers has red petals.
"You came to see my godmother..." Mu Chengzhi came back to his senses and looked at us with some vigilance.
Just when Jiang Xue was about to explain, Tan Xinlian was the first to say: "Cheng Zhi, comrade police are here to investigate the matter about Yulu two years ago."
Speaking of Yao Yulu, Mu Chengzhi's face darkened, and a heartbroken expression flashed across his cheeks.
I didn't care either. Since Mu Chengzhi is Tan Xinlian's godson, it proves that he is somewhat familiar with Yao Yulu.
"Wasn't the murderer who hurt Yulu... Sister Yulu already caught two years ago? Why are we still investigating?" Mu Chengzhi skillfully inserted the black mandala flower in his hand into the vase at the back.
.
Jiang Xue imitated Jiang Bing and explained: "There were many mysteries about the case two years ago, so we want to investigate the case thoroughly this time."
Mu Chengzhi inserted the flowers into the vase and sat on the sofa nearby. He sighed deeply and said, "Yulu...Sister Yulu is a good girl, but she didn't expect to be brutally killed by that bastard!"
When he said this, Mu Chengzhi's hands couldn't help but tremble. He must have been angry.
I'm a little confused. It's been two years since my mother mentioned this in front of her, but her mother didn't feel any better. How could Mu Chengzhi be so angry?
In the end, it can only be understood that the relationship between Mu Chengzhi and Yao Yulu was too good.
I comforted Mu Chengzhi: "Don't be too sad. Although the murderer was cruel and heinous, he could not escape the punishment of the law in the end."
"I just feel sorry for my godmother..." Mu Chengzhi gritted his teeth and nodded, taking one last look at Tan Xinlian beside him, his eyes darkened again.
Tears welled up in Tan Xinlian's eyes when the painful point was mentioned. She shook her head slowly and murmured softly: "If it hadn't been for Cheng Zhi these years, I don't think I would have been able to survive."
The scene suddenly became a little sad, and I glanced at the only flower with red petals in the vase.
He deliberately changed the subject and asked: "Why is this flower red? Aren't the rest all black?"
Mu Chengzhi raised his head and glanced at the flowers, and explained: "A little paint is added. If the whole vase is black, the color will be a bit monotonous."
I nodded without paying much attention. I glanced at Jiang Bing and found that she was nodding towards me.
I know that I have asked almost everything I need to ask, and I'm afraid it might be inappropriate to ask any more.
So we all got up and said goodbye. Before leaving, Tan Xinlian asked Mu Chengzhi to come out and see us off. We did not refuse and walked out of the door together with Mu Chengzhi.
Just when we were about to get in the car and leave, Mu Chengzhi, who had been following us silently, suddenly spoke up and stopped us: "Wait a moment, I have something to say to you."
Jiang Bing looked at Mu Chengzhi confused and asked him what was going on.
Mu Chengzhi glanced around, then stared at our car, and said, "Let's talk in your car."
I was a little confused about what was going on, but I didn't refuse. I opened the car door and let Mu Chengzhi sit in.
Mu Chengzhi was silent for a moment in the car, and then gave us an explosive start: "I am... Yao Yulu's boyfriend."
"What?!"
We all spoke in shock almost in unison.
Mu Chengzhi is Yao Yulu’s boyfriend?
The first thing I thought of was the child in Yao Yulu’s belly! Could it be that Mu Chengzhi is the father of the child in Yao Yulu’s belly?!
Just when the rest of us were still in shock and had not fully recovered, Mu Chengzhi said again: "Actually, I can't be regarded as Yao Yulu's boyfriend."
"What do you mean?" Jiang Xue looked at Mu Chengzhi warily, and I noticed that her eyes were slowly becoming sharper.
Mu Chengzhi did not answer directly, but shook his head with a wry smile and finally looked at me and asked me if I had any cigarettes.
I silently took out a cigarette from my pocket and handed one to Mu Chengzhi, and also handed one to Zhao Jiyou who was standing aside. However, Zhao Jiyou kept frowning and looking at Mu Chengzhi intently, and did not take the cigarette. I
Without paying attention, he lit it up in the corner of his mouth and started smoking.
"Yulu and I have known each other since college, but I have been pursuing her." Mu Chengzhi said with painful eyes: "I have been pursuing Yulu for nearly four years, but Yulu has never agreed to be my girlfriend.
And I never gave up from beginning to end.”
Mu Chengzhi took a deep breath from the cigarette and puffed out thick smoke. Under the smoke, I saw that the corners of his eyes were a little blurry.
"After graduating from college, I started working, but my pursuit of Yulu did not stop. Yulu also disagreed with me. As for why Yulu didn't agree to my pursuit, I don't know, but I know that Yulu did not abandon me and treated me
I didn’t turn a blind eye to my pursuit. From this point of view, I was sure that Yulu still had a good impression of me, so I didn’t give up.”
"Before the Yulu incident, she came to me and asked me if I would still take care of her like this if she was not clean anymore." Mu Chengzhi said with a wry smile: "I love her, not her body.
So I committed without any hesitation and told her that I loved her."
"I thought Yulu would agree to my pursuit, but I never thought that Yulu would leave after getting the answer from me."
"Then what?" I asked.
"Then..." Mu Chengzhi took a deep breath, his eyes a little hollow: "I knew from Yulu's words that something must have happened to her, so I wanted to ask for more information. But I knew that Yulu was a strong girl.
So I went to ask Yulu’s best friend from college. Yulu’s best friend knew something, but she was suspicious and didn’t want me to know. She kept hesitating when talking, and in the end I didn’t ask anything..."
"What was the name of Yao Yulu's best friend from college?" Jiang Bing frowned and looked at Mu Chengzhi.
"Yang Zhiyu."
"It's her?!" I turned around to look at Mu Chengzhi in shock, and asked instinctively: "Then do you know He Lin?"
"We know him. He Lin was Yang Zhiyu's boyfriend when we were in school." Mu Chengzhi answered calmly.
Boy friend?!
I frowned. According to the information retrieved, the host Yang Zhiyu and the singer He Lin did know each other two years ago and in college, but they did not indicate that they were boyfriend and girlfriend.
"But the relationship between Yang Zhiyu and He Lin was a secret. Very few people knew about it at that time, and only Yulu and I knew about it." Mu Chengzhi replied immediately.
No wonder there was no clear relationship between Yang Zhiyu and He Lin during the investigation. It turned out that the relationship between the two of them had always been secretive.
"What's the purpose of telling us so much?" Jiang Bing stared at Mu Chengzhi closely, as if he wanted to see through him.
Mu Chengzhi's expression remained unchanged, his eyes were firm and he said: "Yulu's tragic death is not that simple!"
Jiang Bing and I looked at each other and continued to listen to Mu Chengzhi's words.
Mu Chengzhi said: "I have been pursuing Yulu for four or five years to understand Yulu's family situation, and I also know that there is only one godmother in Yulu's family. After Yulu's incident, I was afraid that my godmother would not be able to accept the reality, so I lied and claimed that I was
Yulu's good friend often comes to visit her godmother. I also accidentally learned from my godmother that Yulu was pregnant before the incident. Plus what Yulu said to me, so I thought that Yulu's incident must not be that simple!"
"So you just want to tell us this and let us investigate again?" I took over what Mu Chengzhi said.
After hearing my words, Mu Chengzhi's eyes dimmed a little, and the fingers holding the cigarette trembled a little: "I know it's wrong to do this, but I have no other choice but to do this. I love Yulu, and I can't let Yulu die inexplicably, and I can't let Yulu die inexplicably.
I won’t believe that the bastard who killed Yulu just wanted to rob!”
"What you think is only your guess. Whether it is true or not must be proven with evidence. The case two years ago has been overturned and re-investigated by the police. Until this case is clarified, it will not be the same as the last time.
The case was also closed in a hurry. So don’t worry, Yao Yulu’s death will not be unclear. If there is really a twisted truth behind the case, we will definitely make Yao Yulu’s injustice clear.”
Jiang Bing's calm words calmed down Mu Chengzhi, who was a little excited.
The cigarette burned out quickly. Mu Chengzhi threw the cigarette out the window, looked at us, smiled lightly and said, "Thank you."
As soon as he finished speaking, Mu Chengzhi opened the car door and walked out.
After Mu Chengzhi left, we didn't stay any longer. Jiang Xue drove directly out of Tan Xinlian's house.
"Yao Yulu was pregnant before her death, and the deceased host Yang Zhiyu and the singer He Lin were lovers a few years ago... The case two years ago became more and more complicated." I rubbed my forehead and couldn't help but mutter.
"The most important thing now is to find out what happened to Yao Yulu's pregnancy before her death and who owns the child in Yao Yulu's belly. If the biological father of the child in Yao Yulu's belly can be found, I think this case will have some clues," he said.
At this point Jiang Bing suddenly turned around and stared at me closely.
"What are you looking at me for? I have flowers on my face?" I was stunned for a moment and didn't understand.
Jiang Bing rolled her eyes at me and said: "I remember you said before that Yao Yulu's autopsy was completed by your master two years ago, and you were just a forensic intern at that time. Did you notice Yao Yulu's pregnancy at that time?
?”
I frowned and tried to recall it, then shook my head blankly: "At that time... I was still in the internship stage, and I was a little reluctant to the dismembered corpses. So I didn't pay attention to the observation, but I'm sure
What’s more, the original autopsy was completed by my master alone.”
"Your master was the chief medical examiner in the case of dismemberment two years ago, but when you looked at the autopsy report of the dismemberment case two years ago, you found that there was no sign of Yao Yulu being pregnant. Does that prove...
