River Breeze Night Sparrow

The sixty-year-old woman tidied herself up neatly, her face was riddled with dimples, showing a somewhat sickly paleness.The eyeballs are still clear, but the rough marks of life are clearly visible.

The old man has no children and lives alone in an ordinary community in Jingjiang District, Jingdong City. This is the gathering place for old citizens in Jingdong City. It is far away from the noise of the city, but the living infrastructure is relatively complete. There are several parks nearby. Usually very quiet, very suitable for the elderly.

When Gu Lianfang heard that what Jiang Yi wanted to ask was about the Liu family, her thin, purplish lips trembled twice, as if hesitating. "I'm just an old helper, and I don't know anything."

The decoration style in the room is more European style, and the crystal lamp does not match Gu Lianfang's temperament.She looked at Jiang Yi and Lin Lin timidly, with her hands hanging on her lap, rubbing them uneasily.

Although the housing prices in Jingjiang District are not as high as those in Changning District and Nanhua District, they are still in Jingdong City after all. Gu Lianfang is a rural woman who lost her husband in middle age. It was impossible to buy a new house of 20 square meters in a high-quality community in Jingdong City with full payment eight years ago.

"After the Liu family dismissed you, they said that you had gone back to your hometown in the south. Do they know that you are still in Jingdong City? The house here is not within your spending power. Did the Liu family buy it for you?"

Most of the time, the old lady kept asking questions and did not admit that the Liu family bought her a house. "There was a relative who was also lonely. She died early and no one entrusted her savings. Before she died, I served her for a while and left all the money to me."

"Which relative?"

Gu Lianfang hesitated for a few minutes, looked at the police uniform on Lin Lin, and mumbled, "Her name is Ju Xiaofei. She and I are fellow villagers, both from Ruxi County. She passed away eight years ago."

With Gu Lianfang, Jiang Yi and Lin Lin almost hit a wall.After some inquiries to no avail, they could only leave first. "She didn't say a word about the Liu family. It seems that there must be something wrong. The Liu family is quite tightly sealed."

"Team Jiang, what should we do now?"

Jiang Yi remained silent.

There are mostly elderly people in Lihua Community, and there are two households per elevator.When they were about to take the elevator down from the fourth floor, an old man happened to come out of the elevator.He looked at Lin Lin's police uniform, and then at Gu Lianfang's house, his face turned pale with shock.

"Ah, did something happen to Lianfang? Why did the police come here?"

"Uncle, Uncle, don't worry. Aunt Gu is fine." Jiang Yi hurriedly supported the old man and told him not to shout.However, his mind turned quickly, he paid attention, and called "Aunt Gu", as if he was very close.

"Oh, oh, that's good, that's good. Then... is something wrong with Xiaoju?"

The old man looked at the two of them nervously, Jiang Yi and Lin Lin looked at each other, and thought to themselves: Okay, now there is a show!

Jiang Yi said: "It's not a big deal. But there is some trouble. You seem to know something about the situation, sir. Is it convenient for you to come with us now? If it is not convenient, you can go to the fly restaurant downstairs."

"Hey, okay! Comrade policeman, Lianfang's affairs are my affairs, and Xiaoju's affairs are my affairs. I will know everything!"

The old man's name is Fang Dapeng, a native of Jingdong City.After a son went abroad to study, he married a foreign daughter-in-law and stayed abroad. The way to show filial piety is to buy a pension house, pay the old man regularly, and ask the housekeeper to help clean up every month.

It has been 20 years since Fang Dapeng's wife passed away, and he has not been able to find a suitable one until he met Gu Lianfang eight years ago.Like him, Gu Lianfang lives alone.He is also dignified and generous, and has a good temper, so he thought of a sunset relationship between the two of them, but Gu Lianfang never agreed to marry him, but lived together as a partner, that is, eating together, going to the park and so on.

"Who is Xiaoju?"

"Oh, Xiaoju is Gu Lianfang's grandson. Not her own grandson. She has a niece named Ju Xiaofei. Xiaofei is also a poor girl. She raised a child by herself, and finally brought up her son. She has a family and a career. She could have enjoyed a happy life." Yes, I got a serious illness and died a few years ago. Xiaoju regards Gu Lianfang as her grandmother, and will come back to see her when she is free. But I rarely see Xiaoju in person, but I often hear Lianfang talking about him. At home If there are more fruits, health care products, etc., they will all be given by Xiaoju."

"Ju Xiaofei has a son? How old is it?"

Fang Dapeng thought for a while, and said, "It should be past thirty now."

Gu Lianfang said that Ju Xiaofei is also "lonely", she can hide from this "son", why is this?

Jiang Yi lowered his head and took a mouthful of noodles, saw the vinegar bottle next to him, poured some, and mixed it.Lin Lin was curious, and asked, "Aren't you not jealous?" Jiang Yi said, "Vinegar is as good as vinegar, you can't be picky eaters, you have to get used to it early."

"What are you used to? No one is forcing you to be jealous." Lin Lin whispered.

Jiang Yi said to Fang Dapeng: "Grandpa, you eat too. I asked you while you were eating." Fang Dapeng said "Hey".

"You said you seldom see Xiaoju himself, but you still have, right?"

Fang Dapeng took a mouthful of noodles and nodded hastily.He fell into memories, "Don't tell me, I don't know. When I think about it now, I seem to have seen it once. Many years ago, Lianfang had a photo of Xiaoju and Xiaofei when she was a child, and later put it away, saying that she was afraid of seeing it. sad."

Lin Lin was also thoughtful, and kept thinking, Xiaoju, Xiaoju.

Jiang Yi asked: "Do you know what Xiaoju's last name is?"

Fang Dapeng said: "Ju...Ju what, it seems to be two words."

He patted his forehead somewhat annoyed: "Hey, you say that my memory is really old, and I can't even remember a name. Lianfang has been talking to me for so many years for nothing."

Jiang Yi called to him: "Wait, sir, please say what you said just now, again."

"My memory is really old, and I don't even have a name..."

"Stop!" Jiang Yi stopped him, "Have you remembered?"

Lin Lin: "Jiang Yi, you mean..." Fang Dapeng's eyes lit up, "That's right! Xiaoju's name is Ju Ran!"

Jiang Yi and Lin Lin looked at each other.

Lin Lin pulled out a photo of Liu Juran from his mobile phone, and handed it to Fang Dapeng: "Master, is this the person you are talking about, Ju Ran?"

Fang Dapeng took a closer look and said, "I haven't seen Xiaoju wearing a suit very often, and I don't know him. It should be Xiaoju. What's wrong? Could it be that something happened to Xiaoju?"

Lin Lin put the phone back and asked, "Master, are you sure this is Ju Ran? Also, are you sure Aunt Gu really knows Ju Ran?"

Fang Dapeng was confused, and said: "I'm sure, of course I'm sure. What could be wrong with this. Well, what's going on here?"

Jiang Yi continued to ask: "Did Ju Ran buy Gu Lianfang's house for her?"

"It seems that Ju Xiaofei has a lot of savings, and she left a lot for her. After all, they are as close as mother and daughter. It seems that Xiaoju has a little help in the house. After Ju Xiaofei died, Ju Ran found a good job. It seems to be in a Big company, big money."

"How much do you know about Ju Ran and Ju Xiaofei? Please tell us all about it."

Fang Dapeng thought about it carefully, and said: "That's all, it's gone, it's really gone."

"Comrade police, just tell me what's going on? What happened? If you don't tell me, I won't be able to sleep every day." Fang Dapeng's face wrinkled together, Jiang Yi and the others didn't say anything. Said that it made him anxious.

Lin Lin said: "Master, I'm sorry to tell you that something happened to Xiaoju. Not long ago, Xiaoju fell from the second floor, hit her head and died on the spot."

"Ah! My god! This, this! Alas!" Fang Dapeng turned pale with shock, but he asked again with surprise: "Comrade police, is it not an accident that you have traveled so far and conducted investigation again?"

Jiang Yi nodded implicitly.He took out a note from his pocket and wrote down his and Lin Lin's cell phone numbers and the phone number of the bureau's office. "If you and Aunt Gu have any clues to provide, welcome to call 24 hours a day."

Fang Dapeng was already old, and it might be the first time he encountered such a thing, his eyes were full of disbelief, and his hand trembling when he took the note.

Jiang Yi paid the ramen Qian Maliu for the three of them.The two walked towards Jiang Yi's big run, and turned their heads to say thank you for your cooperation. Fang Dapeng also hurriedly ate two mouthfuls of noodles, packed up his things, and hurried home.

As soon as Ye Yuan saw Jiang Yi and the others came back, he immediately reported: "Two things, one, the DNA test results of Liu Xichao, Liu Dongyue, and Liu Juran came out; two, the investigation of Liu Dongyue's social relations while studying abroad also yielded some clues .”

"The first thing is that according to the DNA test results, it is determined that Liu Xichao and Liu Juran are half-brothers, and Liu Dongyue and Liu Xichao are half-brothers and sisters. Liu Juran and Liu Dongyue are not related by blood. The second thing Liu Dongyue has been studying for a master's degree and graduated last year. According to her classmates in the study abroad circle, she had a few boyfriends during college, all of whom were white, but they were all just for fun. Liu Dongyue suspended school for one year. She studied in the local area where marijuana was legalized. It seems that she had undergone drug rehabilitation in the local drug rehabilitation center three years ago, and it has not been confirmed whether she has relapsed. That’s all for now.”

Sun Xiaoqu sighed: "It is said that rich families are prone to bloody incidents, and the DNA test results are indeed quite bloody."

Lin Lin also looked at Jiang Yi, and asked with his eyes: Do you know the complicated blood relationship of the Liu family?Jiang Yi replied with a very strange look: I am not a fortune teller, how would I know that.

At this time, Lin Lin's mobile phone rang, and when he heard the voice, it was indeed Gu Lianfang.

After leaving three phone calls, he still chose Lin Lin. Jiang Yi couldn't help but sigh in his heart: The police force still needs to recruit some kind-hearted comrades.

"Hi, hello, I'm Lin Lin." While answering the phone, Lin Lin turned on the speakerphone and made a recording on the phone.

"Officer Lin, I, I'm Gu Lianfang. I..." After saying two words, she began to cry. "My little Ju... is Xiaoju really dead?"

"I'm sorry, is the little Ju you're talking about Mr. Liu Juran?"

"Uh, eh, um. Xiao Ju, that's Liu Juran. Is he really dead?"

"Yes, I'm sorry. On the night of the 19th, he fell from the second floor of the Willow House, suffered serious head injuries, and died on the spot."

"In Liu's house... woo woo woo, I should have known, no matter what, they won't let Xiaoju go."

"They? You mean the Liu family?" Lin Lin asked.

"Yes. They... woo woo, it was Xiaoju who was at fault first, but it has been so many years, why do they still have trouble with him? Could it be that Liu Dongyue has returned to China?"

Lin Lin looked at Jiang Yi, and Jiang Yi frowned tightly.He mouthed to Lin Lin, Lin Lin nodded and said, "Don't worry. We'll go to your home to find out the situation in detail. It will take about half an hour. Please calm down a little."
