As soon as Zhang Hui showed up, Yang Wu put down his work and rushed over immediately.

Xiao Ding brought out the archival materials that he had prepared long ago and smiled particularly attentively.

"These are all selected according to your requirements."

Zhang Hui took a quick look through the document and memorized all the contents.

"Let's start with him!" Zhang Hui pointed to one of the documents.

Xiao Ding scratched his head, not understanding why he chose to start with this case, which was a very ordinary case.

"Okay, Xiao Ding, go and notify the family members and tell them that we need their cooperation on something." Yang Wu agreed immediately.

Xiao Ding wrote down the number and started to call. Zhang Hui held the document and looked at it carefully.

Liu Changhe, male, 51 years old, is from Xiaoliu Village, Dongping County, Beijing.

On June 1992, 6, he had an argument with his neighbor over trivial matters, accidentally hit the neighbor with a shovel, and then fled.

"Who else is in his family?" Zhang Hui asked Yang Wu.

"There was an old mother. Not long after this happened, his father passed away. His wife remarried that year and left behind a four-year-old child, who is now twenty-three years old."

Yang Wu was very familiar with this information and had no idea how many times he had read it.

"It seems that the statute of limitations has almost expired. My master was the organizer of this case. When he retired, he kept reminding me that I must catch the perpetrator."

"Alas, it's a pity that there has been no progress until now. It's like this person has disappeared from the face of the earth."

Xiao Ding suddenly realized that the reason she chose this case was because of the time, not whether the case was simple or complicated.

Xiao Ding reported: "No one answered the phone." Zhang Hui didn't care and went straight to his house.

In order to ensure Zhang Hui's safety, Yang Wu assigned the Sanda champion in the bureau to join the pursuit.

However, Zhang Hui refused. She was not a weak woman, so there was no need to waste police resources.

Yang Wu couldn't persuade her, so he had to agree and let Xiao Ding follow.

Xiao Ding drove to Xiaoliu Village, Dongping County, without saying a word along the way.

After driving for more than two hours, we entered Xiaoliu Village.

The house in front of me is dilapidated, with new and old tiles on the roof stacked up like patches.

There were wooden boards nailed on the windows to keep out the cold. There was no lock on the grayish-white wooden door. An iron ring was buckled on an iron ring on the door frame, which served as a lock.

This home seems to have stayed in the past nineteen years. No matter how time ravages it, the owner works hard to patch it up, neither leaving nor rebuilding.

It was so shabby and old that it seemed like a rainstorm could destroy the house.

Those who could move away from the surrounding neighbors moved away, and those who could not move away stayed away from his house.

The village chief smoked a cigarette and glanced at the door: "I think he went out to pick up trash. Why don't you wait in my room?"

"Where is her grandson, Liu Changhe's son Liu Wen?" Zhang Hui asked. The old lady was too old to travel with them.

If something happens on the way, who will be responsible? Liu Wen has to go, he is young, healthy and strong.

The village chief sighed, "Liu Wen has been sensible and filial since he was young, but he is not good at studying. In addition, his family has no money, so he dropped out of school very early and has been hanging out outside."

"A few days ago, he said he was going to Shenzhen to make money, and he left his milk to me before leaving."

Zhang Hui frowned. The young man had gone to Shenzhen, leaving the old lady at home, and Liu Changhe had no other blood relatives.

This is a dilemma. Do I really have to take the old lady with me?

As he was speaking, an old lady with completely white hair came hobbling over, holding a tattered cloth bag in her hand.

The bag was bulging with a lot of things in it.

The village chief pointed and said, "She's back." Xiao Ding hurried forward to help.

Liu Changhe's mother is 69 years old this year. Years of hard work and missing her son day and night have made her age faster than her peers.

After figuring out the purpose of the girl in front of her, she widened her dim eyes and asked excitedly, "Can you really find my son?"

So many years have passed, and she has been looking forward to her son's return. It is better for him to turn himself in than to wander around outside.

Zhang Hui nodded in agreement. The old lady was so overwhelmed with sadness and joy that she fainted.

Zhang Hui quickly supported her, and the village chief hurriedly arranged for help and got the old lady into the house.

Zhang Hui used his spiritual energy to comb her body and confirmed that the old lady had fainted due to momentary emotional excitement and there was no other major problem.

The village chief led the two men out of the house and stopped at the door.

Alas, the old lady is not in good health. Why don’t we notify Liu Wen to come back?

Zhang Hui discussed with the village chief about contacting Liu Wen.

The village chief said in embarrassment: "Liu Wen said that he would contact me after confirming the work location this time."

That means they can’t get in touch. Zhang Hui didn’t expect to encounter this kind of situation in his first case.

There is no choice but to change the case. It is now early April, and I don’t know if Liu Wen can come back before June.

Zhang Hui instructed the village chief that if there was any news about Liu Wen, he must come back and inform them.

The village chief agreed to all of their requests and sent them out.

"Wait!" The old lady's panicked and anxious voice came from behind.

Seeing the old lady rushing to chase them, Zhang Hui was afraid that she might fall again, so he hurriedly shouted, "Grandma Liu, don't move. I won't leave."

With that, she and Xiao Ding turned back. Mother Liu burst into tears and said, "I heard everything you said just now. Xiao Wen doesn't need to come back. I will go with you."

The two looked at each other, feeling a little embarrassed. The old lady was so old, they really couldn't go with her.

Seeing that the two were silent, Liu's mother pleaded, "I am almost dead, and I just want to see my son again and persuade him to come back and surrender."

"Otherwise I won't be able to rest in peace when I die." Her white hair was disheveled, and her wrinkles were filled with longing for her son and regret.

I regret not educating my son well, which has harmed others and myself.

The village chief stood by without saying a word. If something happened to the old lady on the road, not only would Liu Wen blame him, but he himself would also feel uncomfortable.

"Take me with you." The old lady's cloudy eyes were full of hope. How long could she wait? She was afraid that she would not be able to wait for her son to come back.

Even if she died on the road, she would rather not wait at home.

"If you don't take me with you, I will go by myself. I can go anywhere to find you. I am willing to die on the road!"

As the old lady spoke, she went back to the house to pack her things.

Since she had already said such suicidal words, Zhang Hui had no choice but to agree. Fortunately, she still had the rejuvenation pill in her hand, so there was no need to worry about any accidents.

After packing two sets of clothes for the old lady, Zhang Hui helped her into the car, and the three of them set off immediately.

The red line shot out from the tracing bead passed through the old lady's eyebrows. Zhang Hui could see from afar that the end of the red line was faintly pointing to the south.

Xiao Ding followed her instructions and drove south.

The old lady wasn't carsick and was in good spirits. She was probably trying to hold on because she was focused on finding her son.

At night, the light was too dim, so they stopped the car and found a hotel to rest.

The next morning, just as the sky was getting light, the three set out again.

At around 2:00 p.m., the car arrived at Donghu District, Lianxiang City, H Province.

"Turn left." "Go straight!" "Stop!"

Liu's mother looked out of the car window. There were unfamiliar streets and a constant stream of people. Was her son here?

"Let's go there." Zhang Hui pointed in the direction to Liu's mother.

Xiao Ding read the name of the community: "Fugui Garden."

This is it. The red line between Liu's mother's eyebrows indicates this place.

The two of them followed Liu's mother's steps and walked towards the gate of the community eagerly.

The community security guard was very responsible and stopped the three of them outside.
