Chapter 40 Hell is empty, the devil is in the world
Bai Ye and his brother Bai Chun came to the Lu family carrying large and small bags.
Lu Yang's lazy eyes passed over the pile of valuable gifts, with a careless smile in his eyes: "Are you in trouble?"
"Sister Yangyang, you are still smart." Bai Chun scratched his head awkwardly and glanced at everyone: "Did you notice the recent news?"
"What news?" Jiang Jin raised his eyebrows.
Bai Chun clicked on the hot news on the Internet - the wife beside him disappeared overnight, and the husband didn't even notice.
Netizens discussed it lively.
Some speculated that he ran away from home, some speculated that he was kidnapped, and some speculated that he accidentally died in a place where it is not easy to notice...
Below the news is a video of the husband’s interview.
After watching the interview video, Lu Yang didn't even understand the complete story, so he said calmly: "There is something wrong with this husband."
"How can you tell?" Bai Chun asked quickly.
Lu Yang suppressed the coldness in his eyes and explained: "The husband in the video looked calm and showed no restraint when facing reporters. In his words, he described the disappearance of his wife as very normal."
There was even a bit of contempt for his wife in his tone.
When the reporter asked him where his wife might be going, the husband actually said that with her IQ, she shouldn't be able to run far.
"We do doubt this husband, but it's useless to doubt him."
Bai Chun had been working on this case for several days and nights. His eyes were bloodshot and he looked very haggard.
He said helplessly: "The search work has been carried out for several days. When we first received the report, we checked all the surveillance cameras in the community, searching and identifying frame by frame. After three days of checking, there was no trace."
The entire community was turned upside down by the police. Even the pond in the community was drained and searched, but there was no news.
The most likely scenario is that Ms. Xu did not leave home at all.
While listening to Bai Chun describe the case, Lu Ye and Lu Chen were already investigating the couple's past.
Lu Ye half-squinted his eyes and said slowly: "From the information, the relationship between the couple is average. They often quarrel over the house, money, and the education of their little daughter."
"Moreover, when his wife disappeared for a day, this man didn't even think of calling the police. He thought his wife just went out to play."
It was not until two days later that my wife's work called her that everyone knew that Ms. Xu was missing.
Lu Chen's eyebrows were raised sharply, and his tone sounded full of sarcasm: "This husband is really big-hearted and keeps it quiet."
It was the eldest daughter and nephew who called the police.
The eldest daughter resigned in a panic and offered a reward of 100,000 yuan to find her mother's whereabouts. Ms. Xu's nephew also contacted the media everywhere, hoping to get news about Ms. Xu.
But as the husband, Mr. Zhou is not anxious at all.
There are all kinds of comments in the post, but most of them are doubting my husband.
In recent years, we have indeed encountered many cases of husbands killing their wives, and netizens cannot help but make assumptions in the dark.
The coldness in Jiang Jin's eyes flashed unclearly, and he said slowly: "This husband is indeed very suspicious."
Lu Yang sorted out the causes and consequences of the case, raised his eyes to look at Bai Chun, and said in a cold voice: "What specific places have been investigated?"
Bai Chun said with a solemn face: "The superiors attach great importance to this case. An investigation team has been set up and they have conducted four carpet searches, but found nothing."
Even if the clues and logic point to the husband, traces of crime and a body are needed to convict.
If the body cannot be found, this can only be an ordinary disappearance case.
Lu Yang slowly narrowed his peach blossom eyes, and there was a cold light in his eyes. There was no warmth in his eyes, and his voice was deep and low: "Check the water meter number on the day their family disappeared."
"You mean..." The message flashed through Bai Chun's mind, and his pupils immediately dilated, a little unbelievable.
He immediately took out his mobile phone and called his colleagues who were still in the community, asking them to check the water meter immediately.
Within a few minutes, my colleague's call came back.
Listening to the shocked voice on the other end of the phone, Bai Chun cursed the quintessence of Chinese culture: "Fuck!"
After hurriedly hanging up the phone, Bai Chun's voice was a little floating when he spoke again: "Sister Yang, do you know how many tons of water his family used on the day his wife disappeared?"
"More than 20,000 tons!!"
He stretched out two fingers and gestured. He couldn't believe it.
Lu Ye lowered the corners of his mouth and said in a low voice: "Dismembered corpses?"
"With such a large amount of water consumption, this is the only possibility." Lu Chen's eyes flashed coldly and his tone was cold.
Lu Yang raised his eyes slightly and whispered: "Hurry up and check."
"Okay." Bai Chun stood up quickly.
Bai Ye did not leave, his eyes fell on the computer screen, a trace of disgust flashed in his eyes: "Hell is empty, the devil is in the world."
What is more difficult to look directly at than the sun is the human heart.
The lover you thought was just a devil that you spend time with day and night.
How much tenderness didn't turn into a finger-twirling softness, but turned into a murderous saw.
Lu Chen peeled the melon seeds with his hands, raised the ends of his eyes, and said with a half-smile, "I might as well just give him a gun."
"A society governed by law." Jiang Jinliang said softly.
Lu Chen turned and glared at Jiang Jin: "What you said makes me look like a black man."
"The Lu family is quite bandit in nature." Lu Yang smiled carelessly.
Lu Chen's face turned dark, and he said unhappily: "Is there anyone who would neglect your own family like this?"
"Tell the truth." Lu Yang chuckled.
The corners of Lu Ye's mouth curled up slightly, and he looked at Lu Yang with half-squinted eyes, and said slowly: "If you really want to say that, no one in the family is more like a bandit than you."
Lu Yang: "..."
People give gifts during festivals and other festivals, but when it comes to Lu Yang, they have to give him a lot of money.
On her delicate and eye-catching face, just three words were written: I want money.
Jiang Jin raised his eyes and said slowly: "Gift-giving scenes are repeated in cycles, which means that the other party needs to spend energy to choose gifts. If it cannot be repeated, it is better to just give the money."
Lu Yang rested his face in Jiang Jin's arms, raised his eyelids towards his two brothers, and echoed, "That's right, I can tell at a glance that you don't have anyone to give gifts to."
Lu Ye: "..."
Lu Chen: "..."
He glared at Lu Yang, with a death smile on his face, and touched Lu Ye's elbow: "I really can't have this girl anymore. She's not married yet, and her elbows keep turning outwards."
When Lu Ye opened his mouth to say something, he spotted Lu Xiao coming down from the second floor out of the corner of his eye, and he immediately shut his mouth.
Lu Chen was sitting across from Lu Ye and was not aware of the imminent threat at all.
Bai Ye curled his lips and said, "Master's elbow has never been turned inward."
Lu Chen's whole body was filled with resentment: "Lu Yang has always valued sex over his brother since he was a child. If I had known, I wouldn't have pestered my parents for a younger sister when I was a child, so as not to turn my elbows outward and be an eyesore."
"Snapped!"
The slippers flew directly to the back of Lu Chen's head and slid onto the sofa.
Lu Chen picked up the slippers and cursed angrily: "Who dares to throw the slippers at me? I can't bear to live..."
