Chapter 89 Surprised to See Parents Tomb
One day, the captain and Yaqin sat on the green lawn and started chatting. Yaqin told the captain:
"My mother was the daughter of the consul of country D in Dongzhou. She was very favored. When she grew up, she married a senator in Dongzhou. My father died a year after I was born, and my mother took me to live in the
This house.”
"My father bought this place on behalf of a young man. This young man is Sun Hongliang. He works as a secretary for my father, and he is responsible for managing all housework."
"When I was three years old, my mother also passed away, and I became an orphan. So I ended my life here and was taken by Sun Hongliang to my grandmother's house in country D. My grandfather is still serving as the consul here. They entrusted a
I was raised by an aunt named Qiu Lanhua. However, this aunt Qiu was too loyal and honest. Sun Hongliang used his sharp tongue to coax her and obtained the power to supervise the huge inheritance I inherited from my parents, saying that
Supervision is actually no different from occupation."
"When I was seventeen years old, I was kidnapped and locked up in a basement. I will never forget the fear and sorrow deep in my heart. Sun Hongliang rescued me, and then he tried every means to force me to marry
Give it to him."
"This must be a trick set up by Sun Hongliang in collusion with gangsters to make me feel grateful to him, in order to coerce me into agreeing to the marriage. So, I married Sun Hongliang, but I had no love for him at all. Sun Hongliang returned to Dongzhou
, and then I made a fortune with my property and became a big banker, and I became the wife of a big banker. On the surface, it seemed that I was very happy. In fact, I had no joy in life at all, I was just in pain.
Just take it one day at a time.”
At this time, Yaqin couldn't bear it anymore and started crying.
The captain didn't want Yaqin to be sad anymore, so he gently took her hand, led her for a walk nearby, and introduced the topic to other aspects:
"Where did that old man Sean come from?"
"After my mother passed away, I went to Country D. During this period, Sun Hongliang asked him to take care of the house. He also went to Country D several times to solve real estate problems. However, Sean and Old Man Sun did not get along well.
They even had a heated argument. The old man had a very stubborn temper, but he cared for me very much. He thought carefully about everything, no matter how big or small, for me... Well, that's right!"
She suddenly said: "It must be those photos that Sean secretly took! Especially the photos of you with a bandage on your head and me in a white nurse uniform, it must be him!"
"Why did he do that?"
"I don't know. However, no one else has this kind of convenience except Sean. Well, by analogy, the other photos... the photos of me when I was young were probably taken when Sean went to country D.
Come down."
"Well, it does make sense. In this way, Sean has been protecting you since you were a little girl, and he has been protecting you until now. He can't stand the evil behavior of Old Man Sun towards you, so he can't get along with Old Man Sun.
Okay, and he may have learned some secrets about Old Man Sun, so he entrusted me to protect you."
"So, Old Sean is the one who sent me the ancient key and made the phone call? ... No. The person who made the strange phone call was killed in the middle of the phone call. I even heard him calling for help.
The voice. Besides, from what I heard on the phone, it wasn’t Old Sean’s voice at all!”
"Then, the phone call will be..."
"I don't know who he is. That person also has an amethyst ball. There is no doubt that it was Old Man Sun who killed him and took away the amethyst. I dare say that there is a 99% chance that it was Old Man Sun who did it."
The two of them were walking and talking, and while talking, they walked through a forest and came to a hillside. At the edge of the pool, they saw detectives searching the house closely under the command of Director Chen.
Every corner was spared, but in the end no clues could be found.
The two of them came to the edge of the courtyard inadvertently. It was a very desolate place with old and dilapidated walls. The wooden door on the wall could be opened with the ancient key. They walked out and saw an ancient wall not far away with a fan on it.
wooden door.
"Is that a residence?"
"Yes, but no one has lived there for a long time."
The captain carefully looked up and down the wooden door, and then looked into the keyhole. Then he took out the ancient key and inserted it into the keyhole. As the key turned, the wooden door opened.
"You can actually use the same key to open the door. Moreover, it seems that people come and go here often, and there is still oil in the keyhole! What a weird thing!"
The outside of the wooden door is covered with weeds, and there is a winding path leading to the front. It is a path made by people walking around frequently. Someone must have passed by here often. The two of them were alert to the movement around them, holding their breath and taking each step step by step.
Walk forward. After a while, a path appears in front of you, leading directly to a small hillside. There is an old house sitting on the hillside, with the doors and windows tightly closed.
There is a terrace next to the door, and next to the terrace is a pentagonal pavilion. Railings are inserted between the five pillars of the pavilion, making the pavilion look like a small tower, which makes people feel a little scared when they see it.
There is a door, which is open.
The two boldly explored inside and saw a tomb located in the middle of the pavilion. In front of the tomb was a wooden platform specially used for worship. A string of amethyst beads inlaid with gold hung on the fence to the right of the wooden platform.
"There is a string of amethyst balls here!" Yaqin shouted, and the two of them walked in gently.
The base monument is flat and smooth, with nineteen precious wreaths inlaid with jewels piled on top. Each wreath is engraved with the year, month and day. It has been exactly nineteen years now, and one is sent every year.
The captain removed the wreath and exposed the tombstone. When the two of them saw it, they suddenly broke into a cold sweat. On the smooth tombstone covered with green moss, there were several lines of gold characters engraved on it, which read:
Zhou Qin and Ruiqi sleep here.
The two men were murdered on November 15, 1917. I vowed to avenge them to the death.
The two looked at each other and their faces changed color. Strange thing! Zhou Qin and Ruiqi...,
Seeing this scene suddenly, Yaqin was so frightened that she collapsed on the wooden platform dedicated to sacrifices. The captain quickly comforted her, and when he saw that she had calmed down, he said:
"Twenty years ago, November 15, 1917, that was the day my father died! How strange!"
"Oh, the year my mother died was also 1917. I was still young at that time, so I can't remember the exact date..."
"What's your father's name?"
"Ricky."
"My father's name is Zhou Qin. So, this grave belongs to our parents. That is where he was killed on November 15, 1917. Another person knew about it and vowed to avenge them.
So he built this tomb and comes here every year to lay flowers to the dead and express his determination to take revenge. The path made in the weeds and the oil on the door lock are all signs that this person came from your home.
