    Chapter 27 Chapter 27

    ===========================

    Kang Haying had no clue after looking at one file, so he turned to the investigation related to child abduction and disappearance in the past few years, and he found clues.

    Most of the cases occurred in the countryside. He checked the area carefully, and there happened to be one in Lu Xiaoyun’s village before this.

    A girl was sold away, but she ran back and sent a family to jail.The case is simple and unsuspicious, but it has a considerable impact on the local area.

    The child Lu Xiaoyun brought back from her parents’ home was Xiaoran. This child was not born to her. It was not known whether it was cheated or bought.Kang Heying had a hypothesis, whether the reason why the Lu family broke up with her was because they knew the inside story and were afraid of being implicated by Lu Xiaoyun.

    He also went to the countryside to look for her, but the neighbors only knew that Lu Xiaoyun had not come back for a long time, and even the news of her death was only a hindrance.No one cared when she broke up with her family. After all, marrying a daughter was like throwing water. She didn’t live a wealthy and promising life, and she wasn’t even good enough to be talked about.

    After much deliberation, Kang Haying decided to investigate from her family members.However, the Lu brothers kept quiet about the matter, saying that they did not want to cause trouble and would not let go no matter what.

    Everything was told to Chen Zongqian one by one, and the other party remained silent after that.Kang Haying felt sorry for the phone bill and asked him bluntly when he planned to do the forensic appraisal.

    “Then we will open a new case and invite them to the bureau to see if they are willing to talk.” The matter reached a deadlock, forcing Chen Zongqian to make a choice.Kang Heying understood his difficulty, paused, and changed his tone when he spoke again, “It’s been so long and you still can’t get over that hurdle?”

    “I’ve already made a mistake once, and I don’t want to make another mistake… He is my biological brother.” Chen Zongqian’s voice was muffled. Kang Heying sighed, knowing that his sadness was real and that he couldn’t let go.Chen Zongqian took a deep breath to calm his heart, “Wait, just wait a little longer.”

    In addition to Lu Xiaoyun, there is another thing that also gives Chen Zongqian a headache.He knew that Xu Jian was a lunatic, but he didn’t expect that this person was particularly difficult to deal with.

    Harassing text messages and phone calls can be blocked and deleted, and Xu Jian’s number has also been blocked by him.But this person would still call from other mobile phones. After one or two calls, Chen Zongqian would hang up when he heard the voice, and then add another person to the blacklist until one day he received two strange text messages.

    One is: “My identification is useless, even if it is not my son, it is still the son of a bitch. I saw you two together, and you never thought of asking for money for me. You worked with that bastard to persecute me.”

    The other one is: “I may not be able to kill you, but isn’t it easy to kill that bastard?”

    Chen Zongqian could ignore the harassment he had received in the past few days, but these words forced him to be cautious.Xu Qiaochuan was beaten last time, and now Xu Jian is saying harsh words again, and he may do something bad.

    Because he was worried about Xu Qiaochuan, he went to the industrial development zone frequently recently, on the pretext that he had work here and stopped by to see Xu Qiaochuan.But it feels wrong if it happens too often. Why do we have to do it on weekends?What kind of job requires running outside late at night?

    Xu Qiaochuan is a keen person, and he knew from the silence that there was something else going on.But Chen Zongqian didn’t say anything, and he didn’t ask. After all, he also had thoughts that he couldn’t express.

    I am always happy to see Chen Zongqian. He smells of cutting fluid when he comes off work and dare not hug Chen Zongqian.That person is used to being gentle and considerate elsewhere.All this made Xu Qiaochuan even more wanton and greedy, and he almost couldn’t control himself.

    Chen Zongqian likes his younger brother’s meekness and well-behavedness, so Xu Qiaochuan pretends to be like this, but pretending to be a good boy is very tiring.He always thinks that Chen Zongqian cannot be a bad person?In this way, no matter what bad behavior he does, he will not feel guilty.

    He was looked at with a gentle look, and he became frightened and obsessed.Xu Qiaochuan was like a lonely traveler, like an unhealthy plant. He thought he could just have a little, but he also wanted all of it, but Chen Zongqian wouldn’t give it to him.

    “What do you want to tell me?” His thoughts turned into a short sentence.

    The house has very poor lighting, and the corridors are illuminated by voice-activated lights.The lamp was always dull, occasionally malfunctioning, and would only come on when a human voice that could not be ignored appeared.Chen Zongqian didn’t say anything. He was shocked and came to his senses only after the lights went out.There was a gift in his arms that he wanted to give to Xu Qiaochuan, which was a white jade plaque.Chen Zongqian wants people to be safe and free from any trouble.

    But jade is expensive, and Xu Qiaochuan is too sensible and keen to accept it easily.There is no reason to give away the Wu Shi Pai, and Chen Zongqian is also afraid of being asked about his current relationship.

    The heavy image of jade suppressed his heart. After thinking for a long time, Chen Zongqian just asked: “How are you lately?”

    “Okay, but it’s a little bad.” He was standing in a dimly lit place, and Chen Zongqian should not be able to see his expression clearly.He didn’t know that this bad sentence would instantly make Chen Zongqian worried. Xu Qiaochuan said softly, “Maybe he is too tired.”

    “If you encounter anything wrong, remember to call me and I will come over.” Chen Zongqian always remembered the threat in the text message and worried about it for several days. He also thought about simply picking him up.

    What’s wrong?Xu Qiaochuan thought about it and realized that something strange had indeed happened.The house he rented was not good. He thought about various accidents, but he never thought about being stolen by thieves.

    There are very few things in Xuqiaochuan, and you can tell at a glance whether they have been looked over.The notebook he bought second-hand in the university town and the change he used to take the shuttle bus were all missing. The others were worthless and there was no need to take them.He spent a hundred dollars to check the surveillance cameras at the tile store downstairs, but saw nothing.

    He has always been unlucky, and all sorts of ridiculous things can happen to him.Second-hand computers were not cheap enough to file a case, so Xu Qiaochuan could only suffer the consequences.

    He was very busy at work and the lack of time made him nervous. Xu Qiaochuan forced himself to forget these misfortunes.He thought he had forgotten it, but in fact he remembered it very clearly. Otherwise, why would Chen Zongqian’s words instantly make him feel countless grievances?

    He nodded and said good night.The voice-activated light went off and on, and Chen Zongqian disappeared after going downstairs.

    Xu Qiaochuan went back slowly, and when he opened the door, he was froze in place by the strong smell of smoke.There were no lights on in the house, but I could see clearly through the light from the corridor.This house is so small that there is no living room. The bedroom is right at the door. There is a wall separating the kitchen and bathroom, so you can see everything clearly at a glance.

    Xu Jian finished his cigarette, threw the unextinguished cigarette butt on Xu Qiaochuan, and cursed: “Are you a dead person? You made me wait for so long.”

    Seeing that he was silent, Xu Jian got up from the bed. He came to collect debts from Xu Qiaochuan.”I came to deceive you with the help of outsiders. It turns out that bastards just can’t be raised well.”

    Xu Qiaochuan was knocked down, and Xu Jian quickly grabbed his hair and forced him to look up.The punch caused his nose to bleed, and he finally regained consciousness. His eyes focused on Xu Jian’s yellow face again.

    “You bitch, you think you can escape by climbing to a high branch? See how miserable your life is -” Xu Jian was bumped into before he could finish his words.He staggered a few steps, tripped and fell to the ground.

    Xu Qiaochuan grabbed Xu Jian’s neck with both hands and kept pinching until his complexion turned from yellow to dark red.He wanted to strangle Xu Jian to death, but there was a stinging pain in his wrist, and Xu Qiaochuan quickly lost his strength and let go.He felt that he was suffocating, and what filled his lungs was a disgusting smell of smoke.Shaking all over, he punched Xu Jian in the face one after another.

    “Go to hell, go to hell -” Xu Qiaochuan was also angry. He didn’t know whether it was because he mentioned Chen Zongqian, or because of the resentment accumulated for more than 20 years, or both.

    But he was beaten away by Xu Jian. The man was so strong that he broke a leg of the wooden bench.Xu Jian quickly got up, dragged Xu Qiaochuan to the window, and pressed him on the iron sheet of the balcony.

    Xu Qiaochuan’s eyes were covered with blood, and everything he saw was blurry.He squeezed Xu Jian’s fingers tightly, but it was all in vain. Xu Jian didn’t give him any chance to resist.

    “Xu Qiaochuan…Xu Qiaochuan…” Xu Jian repeatedly chanted the name he hated the most, took out a Phillips screwdriver from his pocket and stabbed the person in front of him, “I will spend money to get your life back. If you can’t afford it…just give me your life back.”

    “Ah…” The screwdriver stabbed his neck. The thing was long and slender and difficult to hold. Xu Qiaochuan felt it sliding down a little bit and tried his best to tilt the tip toward his shoulder blade.

    The fragile iron balcony could not support the two of them, and soon the screws fell apart. Xu Qiaochuan’s back collapsed, and the window edge almost broke his spine.The pain made Xu Qiaochuan see the situation in front of him completely. He seemed to be extremely sober, but also seemed to be truly crazy.He hit the iron sheet repeatedly with his elbow, and he didn’t feel anything when the screwdriver pierced his shoulder blade.

    “It’s about to collapse…” Xu Qiaochuan’s voice was hoarse and he gave Xu Jian a scary smile.The body fell back a little further, and Ironhide fell to the ground.Xu Qiaochuan put his hands around Xu Jian’s neck, trying to push him out.

    Xu Jian knew what he was going to do and punched Xu Qiaochuan like crazy, intending to make him let go.Xu Qiaochuan laughed even more crazily and glanced at the surveillance camera in the distance from the corner of his eye.

    This is infrared, and the image taken at night is very blurry, but you can barely make out the human form.

    He let go of his hand and said to Xu Jian one last time before falling down: “Just wait, murderer.”
