The man in the blue hat followed the old woman all the way and saw her using a stick to explore the way, so he guessed that she was blind. However, he never expected that her eyeballs were gone. There were only two dry holes where her eyes should have been.

Moreover, the right half of the old man's face was almost completely burned, and his skin looked like a twisted old tree root.

Being caught off guard by this ghost-like face, not only was Blue Hat startled, but netizens also gasped when they saw it.

"Who are you? And why are you following me quietly?"

The girl in the blue hat had no idea that the old woman had already noticed her, so when the old woman stopped in front of her and turned her terrifying face to face her, the hairs on her body stood up.

"I, I'm just passing by."

The man in the blue hat swallowed and tried to remain calm, but he still stuttered when he spoke.

"This is not a good place. If you are okay, leave now, lest you run into something unclean and get scared to death. I, an old woman, won't take care of collecting corpses."

After the old woman finished speaking, she ignored the blue hat and continued walking back the way she came, leaning on her stick.

For a moment, Blue Hat was a little unsure whether to follow her, but at this moment, Chi Qiao in the live broadcast room said, "Follow her, she knows everything you want to know."

The man in the blue hat looked at Chi Qiao on his phone, finally calmed down, took a deep breath and followed.

"Grandma, where do you live? Why are you here alone? Where are your family members?"

After the man in the blue hat caught up with the person, he tried not to focus on the other person's face and asked with a wry smile.

The old woman didn't want to talk to her any more. She snorted and chased her away, "Why do you have so many questions? Go away!"

How could the girl in the blue hat leave? She came here to find out the truth about Cao Jing's tragic death, so she kept pestering the old woman and came to a yard at the end of the village.

This yard is smaller than Cao Jing's. Although it is still dilapidated and the wall has collapsed, it is much cleaner, with less weeds and less thick dust.

"Grandma, do you live here?"

Seeing the old man walking in with a stick and looking very familiar with the furnishings here, the man in the blue hat started to ask.

The old man ignored her and went back into the house.

The man in the blue hat followed him in. The room was dark and smelled moldy. He looked around and found that none of the windows were open.

After the old man came in, he sat down on a small stool and began to fumble with the paper money at hand.

"Grandma, do you know Cao Jing?"

The man in the blue hat walked in and wanted to find a stool to sit down, but there was only a small stool in the room, so he had to squat in front of the old man.

She saw the old man's hands shaking as he folded the paper money, but the old man said, "I don't know."

[How could she not know? Even people from other provinces knew about what happened at that time. She said she didn't know. There must be something wrong!]

[I saw her hands shaking, she must know something! ]

[I don’t quite understand why an old lady is involved in Cao Jing’s case? ]

"Do you live here alone? Where's your family?"

The man in the blue hat tried to find out from the side, but the old man said, "They are all dead."

In the dim and cramped room, a hunchbacked old man with sunken eyes and almost disfigured face was folding paper money and saying such creepy words that the man in the blue hat felt a little numb on his scalp.

However, if she wasn't brave enough, she wouldn't be able to do the horror adventure live broadcast. Since the old woman didn't want to say anything, she would just watch it herself first.

She stood up and looked around the room. The furnishings in the room were very simple: a bed with a worn mattress, an old-fashioned solid wood table at the head of the bed, and a red lacquered cabinet at the foot of the bed, but the paint had almost peeled off.

There is also a small stool and yellow and white paper under the bed for folding paper money.

However, she frowned when she saw a photo frame on the table. The photo in the frame was of a middle-aged man. The middle-aged man was wearing a plaid short-sleeved shirt and grinning at the camera.

When Blue Hat came to Xinlian Village, he looked up a lot of information, so he recognized the man at a glance. He was the old gangster who dragged Cao Jing into the alley!

The man in the blue hat's expression suddenly changed. He turned around and looked at the old woman who was folding paper money and asked, "He is your son?"

The old woman paused, but did not answer. She continued to fold paper money, as if this was the only thing in her life.

The old woman was like an iron rod, and no matter how Blue Hat hammered, she wouldn't let out a single word. This made Blue Hat very unhappy. Of course, part of his unhappiness was also because the old woman was probably the mother of the old rogue.

Suddenly, her eyes turned and she thought of a solution.

She suppressed her anger and said in a much better tone, "Old man, I am a police officer from the Provincial Public Security Bureau. When we were reviewing previous cases, we found that there were loopholes in Lin Zhenjiang's rape case, so we wanted to investigate. If you know anything, I hope you can tell me the truth."

Sure enough, the old woman stopped folding paper money. She turned her head to look in the direction of the blue hat and asked in a dry voice, "Are you a policeman?"

"Yes."

The man in the blue hat lied without blinking an eye, but the old woman frowned and said, "When I came out of the police station yesterday, I didn't hear that my son's case was going to be re-investigated?"

The blue hat was stunned. Why did a blind old man go to the police station? But she was quick-witted and said, "This is not called a re-investigation. It's just that there are some doubts. If we are sure that there are loopholes in the case, we will notify the lower level to re-investigate. So I am here to investigate first."

As she spoke, she took out a small ID from her backpack and handed it to the old woman, "Old lady, please feel it. This is my ID. I won't lie to you."

Netizens watched the man in the blue hat hand a driver's license to the old lady and praised her cleverness.

As she expected, although the old woman had been to the police station, she still didn't know what the ID looked like, and she also believed that the driver's license was a police ID.

The old woman's hand trembled as it dropped from the document, and the wrinkles on her face trembled. If she still had eyes, she would surely be crying.

She knelt down in front of the man in the blue hat and said, "Police comrade, my son didn't kill anyone. He was just passing by. He heard someone shouting for help, so he went to save them!"

The man in the blue hat quickly helped the old man up, but his brows were tightly knitted together. Netizens were also confused. Wasn’t he harming people? How did he become a saver?

Lin Zhenjiang himself admitted it. He said that he was in his thirties and still hadn't married. He had drunk some wine that day and saw a girl passing by and had evil thoughts. He didn't want to kill her, but the girl struggled too hard and he failed.

"Old man, you must tell the truth. If you lie in order to get your son out of prison, you will be held legally responsible."

The man in the blue hat helped the old woman sit down on the stool, fearing that she might tell lies, so he threatened her.
