The news of Mrs. Wan's tragic death soon spread throughout Beiping City, and almost everyone fell into mourning. Some students of the Women's Normal College spontaneously erected flags in front of their homes to commemorate their dedicated teachers. There were also some

The elders organized many school-age children to put river lanterns on the back sea outside Wanzhai to express their condolences.

Ordinarily, a woman like Fu Wei, who has a poor family and has fallen into prostitution, would not be able to win the sympathy of so many people. However, from the moment she and Mr. Wan decided to become husband and wife regardless of ethics, this pure love

His love touched many people, but now that this originally beautiful love has ended so miserably, everyone who heard about it felt sad.

Inside Wan's house, the door is closed, as if no outsiders are seen, and the white paper lantern hanging at the door reminds passers-by all the time: the misfortune that has befallen the Wan family, all passers-by try to walk as slowly as possible

, leave quickly, for fear of disturbing the master's grief.

Since Wan Lei thanked guests behind closed doors and paid no attention to worldly affairs, Tie Xuan had to take charge of the funeral arrangements himself. He gathered important officials from the party, government and military at all levels to discuss what to do about the funeral. Due to Wan Lei's special status, the associated

Fu Wei's status also became special, and the two issues of what level should be followed for funeral ceremonies and where to be buried have become the focus of debate.

Most officers at all levels in the military are rough and don't know much about etiquette. They just feel that Wan Lei is a veteran of the Peking Army and will definitely be buried in Tianshou Mountain in the future. Now that Mrs. Wan has died young, he should be honored as a martyr.

Buried in Tianshou Mountain, Wan Lei will be buried together as husband and wife a hundred years later.

Government officials headed by Tie Xuan felt that this plan was not appropriate. After all, they did not know whether Wan Lei would remarry in the future. If they occupied the cemetery hastily, what would happen to the future wives? Even if Wan Lei did not remarry, what would happen to the future wives?

It is difficult to determine the level of his cemetery. If his wife's tomb is erected first, if the specifications do not match, it will have to be rebuilt later.

The two parties discussed for a long time, but neither could come up with a practical plan. In the end, they had to park the coffin at Wanning Temple and wait for Wan Lei to get over his grief before deciding what to do. If Wan Lei failed to recover, they would find another way.

Settle the matter properly.

Different from others, Wan Lei returned home with a dull expression and locked himself in the room. No one dared to disturb him. About noon, someone finally came and knocked on the door gently. No one was there.

In reply, he stuffed a note through the crack of the door. After a while, the door finally opened, and a worried Wan Lei appeared in front of the door.

"Brother, a woman named Zhang Yan is here. She said that you asked her to come. Have you seen her?" Zhao Xueer lowered her voice and asked. The one named Zhang Yan is the mute that she saw in the morning. Although she

He has burns on his face and can't speak, but he doesn't look like a bad person.

Zhao Xueer also inquired about Zhang Yan's family background and learned that her father used to be a catcher in the government and caught many bad guys. Later, the family was retaliated by the bad guys and was set on fire and the whole family was burned to death. She escaped from the fire and saved a small life.

, her voice and appearance were ruined. Although her appearance was ruined, her heart was not ruined. Not only did she not give up on herself, she was still living well.

"It is a blessing to have such an "experienced person" guide Wan Lei out of his psychological shadow." That's what Zhao Xueer thought, otherwise she wouldn't introduce him eagerly.

"Tell her to come here." Wan Lei still said expressionlessly, but in Zhao Xueer's view, as long as she is willing to see and talk to people, this is a sign of improvement.

"I'll go right away." With a hint of relief, Zhao Xueer walked out quickly, but she didn't see a strange look on Wan Lei's face.

Soon, Zhang Yan was brought in by Zhao Xueer. She bowed and saluted in front of the door, which meant that she paid attention to the protection of men and women and did not dare to enter a man's room privately. Wan Lei insisted that she enter the room to talk, and even Zhao Xueer was left behind by him.

He came down and closed the door.

After the two of them sat down, Wan Lei stared at Zhang Yan's eyes carefully for a while, until she turned around and lowered her head. Zhao Xueer, who was sitting next to him, saw this and pushed Wan Lei with his hand.

I was afraid that he would go crazy and do something inappropriate like he did in the morning.

Wan Lei turned his face, glanced at Zhao Xueer again, changed his expression, and said: "This time of communication is of great importance. Only the three of you and I know about it, and it must not be spread outside."

"What's the matter? It's so serious?" Seeing that Wan Lei's expression was very different from that of the day, Zhao Xueer thought of the ridiculous behavior of the day and became even more suspicious: Brother Wan might not be thinking too much.

As for losing your mind and going crazy.

After hearing Wan Lei's words, Zhang Yan raised her head and nodded a few times. She seemed to understand. Wan Lei looked at her eyes for a while and found that there was no strange light, so he said: "The person at the fire scene is not

My wife is a fake, and she was not burned to death."

"Fake? No way. Although I don't want to believe that Sister Wei'er will encounter such misfortune, but the figure and clothing are all Sister Wei'er, so..." Zhao Xueer frowned and looked at Wan Lei up and down.

It seemed that he wanted to see if he was too shocked and became confused.

Zhang Yan nodded, picked up a pen and paper and wrote: "Those people were not burned to death by the fire. Those people were already dead before the fire broke out."

"Didn't he get burned to death?" Zhao Xueer was even more confused. She was burned like that, but she still said she wasn't burned to death.

Wan Lei also knew that Zhao Xueer did not understand, and Zhang Yan could only communicate with paper smiles and could not explain clearly at all, so he explained on his behalf: "Being burned to death is a very painful process. People's hands and feet will scratch around, and the body is still

They will curl up like shrimps. And those charred corpses have no obvious signs on their hands and feet.

The scratches were still stuck upright on their bodies, and there were no ashes under their bodies. This meant that they were placed in the same place before the fire, and they did not move their bodies when the fire broke out. There is only one explanation for this, they were

Killed the one who put it there, but someone else set the fire."

"But, even if they were not burned to death, it still can't be concluded that the victim was not Sister Wei'er? Maybe the thieves saw that we were searching too hastily and saw no way to escape, so they killed people and then destroyed the bodies to eliminate traces." Zhao Xueer added.

.

"There are many ways to destroy corpses and eliminate traces. It is not easy for people to find out if they sink a person into a river or dig a hole and bury them. However, the murderer used the method of setting fire to the corpse. This is obviously not destroying traces, but emitting smoke. In addition,

Wei'er's feet were bound, and even though they were sufficient, the foot bones were still somewhat deformed, and the charred corpse was Tian'er, so it couldn't be Wei'er."

"Ah? That person is really not Sister Wei'er?" Zhao Xueer still couldn't believe it, and said: "Then why didn't you tell me earlier and pretended to be a dead wife to scare people."

"I can't say that although they don't know the true purpose and identity of the kidnappers, their purpose of doing this is to create the illusion that Wei'er is dead so that we will no longer pursue the investigation and they will take the opportunity to take the person away. If

If I don't pretend to be a dead wife, they won't jump to the wall as soon as they see the plan goes bankrupt, and the illusion may become the truth."

"Ah!" After hearing Wan Lei's explanation, Zhao Xueer was shocked. She had never thought that there were so many Taoisms in it, but she was too lazy to think about it. She just asked urgently: "If the person at the fire scene is not Sister Wei'er,

So where is she now? How can we save her?"

"I have to rely on your help for this." Wan Lei sighed and said, "In order to ensure Wei'er's safety, now I have to look like I'm in pain. I can't go out to see people, let alone go out to do errands.

So it all depends on you."

"Us?" Zhao Xueer looked at Zhang Yan sitting next to her, and became even more confused: What can be found out by cooperating with a mute?

Wan Lei seemed to see Zhao Xueer's doubts, smiled calmly, and said: "Miss Zhang is very thoughtful, and she is from a spy family, so she will definitely be able to find out everything. If you and she are quiet, active, civil and military, you can get twice the result with half the effort by working together.

"

Being praised by Wan Lei, Zhang Yan blushed and shook her head to express that she didn't dare to take it seriously. Zhao Xueer was too lazy to care about who to cooperate with. She just wanted to get Sister Wei'er back as soon as possible, so she asked urgently: "We are the only ones now.

Two people go out to investigate and have no clue, where should they start?"

"Miss Zhang, tell me." Seeing that Zhang Yan was thinking a little, Wan Lei pushed the question to her.

Zhang Yan frowned and wrote: "First secretly find out the identity of the deceased, and then look for traces of the murderer from the body of the deceased. However, this may take too long, and before he has time to find out, the culprit has already escaped with his wife.

"

Wan Lei waved his hand and rejected this conventional plan, and just asked Zhao Xueer: "Do you still remember when we bought the maids that day, those dozen girls all had excessive penises inserted into their heads?"

"Remember, what's wrong, you suspect that those people are fake Jin Yiwei?"

"It's not suspicion, but certainty. They must all be fakes. As for whether they are Jin Yiwei or not, it's hard to say."

"Then I will take people to find them out immediately and question them clearly." Zhao Xueer suddenly stood up and was about to leave, but was stopped by Wan Lei.

"Don't worry, I haven't finished speaking yet." Wan Lei paused and then said: "What's even more coincidental is that just the night before that day, I mentioned the purchase of a maid to Wei'er, and the next day

I bought a fake maid from a kidnapper, do you think there is such a coincidence in this world?"

"Ah, brother, you mean, there is a traitor in our family?"

"We don't know if there is a traitor in our family for the time being, but there must be a traitor in Beiping City, and this traitor must not be weak in martial arts, otherwise how could he eavesdrop without being discovered. In addition, this traitor must have many helpers, otherwise

You can't just spread the news in one night and have people prepare for such a show of betrayal."

"Then, what should we do?" Zhao Xueer became increasingly clueless.
