Chapter 26 chapter Five

Jiang Quan handed over control of the steering wheel to her husband.Wangwei gritted his teeth and stepped on the gas pedal hard.If there is an illegal camera lens on this road, then Wangwei's speed at this time is enough to make the big detective fine him 1,000 yuan. "Hey, Wangwei, drive slowly." Huang Xiaoxie yelled, dangling in the back seat, and hugged the trembling Zhang Ruya. "Fasten your safety belts too." Jiang Quan turned around and told them.Seeing the way the two of them were holding each other's hands, they couldn't help but smile. Wang Wei pouted at the rear mirror and drove the Lexus towards the gravel road.Fifteen hours later, they arrived at the entrance of Lujia Village.It was only two hours before Zhang Ruya received the call.

"Hey." Huang Xiaoxie got out of the car with a livid face, and said to Wang Wei, "Just park the car here. There seems to be no place to park in the village." Jiang Quan took a look, and sure enough, a police car from the town police station was parked in the square of the village. Zhang Ruya ran to Lu's house in three steps and two steps in parallel.Wang Wei didn't get out of the car, and didn't let Jiang Quan and Huang Xiaoxie go away. After a while, the chubby Director Qu Dawei came out from inside.It looked like it was pushed out by the family.He yelled angrily and walked towards the village square.Seeing Huang Xiaoxie and the others at the entrance of the village, he yelled at them, "Hey, Huang Xiaoxie, come here."

Huang Xiaoxie then ran over and listened to what his director had to say for a while.He ran back again, stood in front of the car window and said to Wang Wei, "Hey, Wang Wei, something you never expected, Lu Yan's body is gone." Wang Wei didn't show any surprise at all.Instead, answer him very naturally, "That's what I thought." "That's what you think..." Huang Xiaoxie didn't believe it. "If Lu Yan really died of arsenic poisoning, the murderer certainly couldn't hand over the body to the police." "But in the question, now the Lu family says that Lu Yan is not dead."

This was a bit beyond Wang Wei's expectation, he thought for a while in the driver's seat, and finally climbed out of the warm car. "This matter, since we are in charge here, we must get to the bottom of it." "Where are you going to start?" Jiang Quan asked, looking anxiously at the house that had just finished the funeral, feeling the ominous atmosphere coming from there. "Me." Wang Wei keenly sensed his wife's uneasiness, "You're right." He turned a corner in the village square and walked next door to Lu Shenlong's house.He just walked to the door and wanted to push the door, when the green aluminum alloy door snapped open.Wang Wei took a step back, and a kid rushed out.

While running, he turned around and yelled loudly: "You are not my mother, why do you care about me?" Wang Wei and Jiang Quan recognized this scruffy boy as Xu Wei, Xu Yanwu's doctor who was fostered by Lu Yu that day.A short and fat woman was chased out of the house, it was Lu Xiaochun.She swung a feather duster in her hand and cursed: "Little red man, if you want to run away, you have the guts not to come back tonight." Xu Wei stood five meters away from the door, spat at the woman, and said, "If I don't come back, I won't come back. I'll be stuck at my godmother's house."

"You little red guy, if you like Lu Yu's woman, you will be in trouble. I don't think anyone in my family likes you. Be careful to be beaten out by an old man." "Old woman." Xu Wei picked up a stone from the ground and threw it at the fat woman.Lu Xiaochun was caught off guard, and was thrown into his chest by him, hugging those erect chests in pain and jumping. "Little Chi, don't run away. If I don't grab you and break your dog legs, I won't be called Lu Xiaochun." Wang Wei took a step forward and said to Lu Xiaochun, "Hello, is Dr. Xu there?"

The woman stopped to observe the two of them for a while, then gave Jiang Quan a disgusted look, and said, "He's at the village chief Lu's house next door. If you want to find him, go there and find him." "Did Village Chief Lu and his family look for him?" "The old lady Zhang came over crying and calling out to tell what happened to her son. The police came over just now, didn't you see?" She replied hurriedly, and found that Xu Wei had fled far away, so she hurried home return to. "Lu Xiaochun," Wang Wei hurriedly put his foot through the door, and called, "When did she come calling?"

Lu Xiaochun replied bluntly, "I don't know." "Why, you weren't home at that time?" Jiang Quan asked. Lu Xiaochun didn't speak, just walked in silently.She walked across the patio, thrust the feather duster into the door of the room, and walked in without paying attention to them. Wang Wei wiped his mouth after being shut down. There were footsteps coming from behind.A woman said there: "Doctor Xu, do you really not know what disease Lu Yan has?" It was Zhang Ruya. Dr. Xu replied: "I don't know. I went to the town library on purpose this afternoon. I borrowed a book. I didn't expect to come back..."

"Hey, Doctor Xu, hello, I'm looking for you." Wangwei greeted them abruptly. "You are?" Xu Yanwu recognized it for about ten seconds, and laughed, "You are the city resident who fought the fire that day. Why are you here again?" "Hey." Wang Wei sighed, "I came here to find some novel materials, and today just happened to be that Miss Zhang came to the city to send me some stories about this village. We were chatting vigorously when I received a call , Said that something happened to Lu Yan. How is the situation?" Jiang Quan, who was behind him, smiled secretly, she was used to her husband's way of making up nonsense and making up lies.It takes a little courage to tell nonsense in front of Zhang Ruya.

"Yes, Dr. Xu. When I went out this morning, Lu Yan was fine. Why did something happen suddenly?" Xu Yanwu pushed open the door of the house, led them into the yard, and replied, "I don't know either. I went to the town library today because of Lu Yan's illness. I borrowed a book. When I got home, I When the Lu family members told me that something happened to Lu Yan, I hurried over, and the head of village Lu told me that Lu Yan was gone. I haven’t seen him today, so how can I figure out what happened?” He said Spreading his hands together, he looked helpless. Wang Wei looked at the old Toyota motorcycle in the middle of the patio, was silent for a while, and asked the same question as Zhang Ruya just now. "Doctor Xu, do you really not know what disease Lu Yan has?"

Zhang Ruya quickly cast her eyes on Xu Yanwu's face, watching him speak. "It's not that I don't understand, it's just that I'm not sure. Judging by Lu Yan's symptoms, it seems to be poisoned." Zhang Ruya jumped up and walked to Jiang Quan's side.She reached out to grab Jiang Quan intentionally or unintentionally, and turned her eyes to the village square outside the door, looking for the figure of a plainclothes policeman. "What poison?" "It's like arsenic, but..." Dr. Xu suddenly stopped talking, and took out two books from the trunk of the motorcycle, "I can't say any more, this is the housework of Village Chief Lu." Both Wang Wei and Jiang Quan saw clearly the difference between the two books: "Acute Poisoning Rescue Manual" and "Law Specialist Textbook-Marriage and Family Law". Wang Wei said to Zhang Ruya: "I forgot to ask you, who called you just now?" Zhang Ruya replied, "Lu Yu. Auntie called her and asked her to find me." "Lu Yan's mother, is she at home now?" "They are all there, Lu Yu and his friends are also there. Auntie is crying and uncle is cursing. Several relatives of the Lu family have gone, talking about something, maybe going to the mountains to find Lu Yan." "They can't find it." Wang Wei said, "Forget it, tell me, where is the small shop in your village?" Zhang Ruya pointed to a small red-painted house on the east side of the square, "The only grocery store in the village, the owner is called Lu Qian'an, who is a certain uncle of Lu Yan, and it's far away." Wang Wei pouted and walked there. In the small shop painted with red paint, a man over fifty years old was sitting, hunched over, reading a book in a blue-gray ski jacket.There is not much hair on his head anymore, and the middle of the gray hair is a smooth, shiny bald spot.When he heard footsteps, he put down his book, lifted the high reading glasses on the bridge of his nose, and stood up. "What do you want?" he asked. "Hello, Boss Lu." Wang Wei smiled and looked at the small department stores on the container, "How can I buy cigarettes?" "What grade do you want?" the boss asked, noticing that some of his customers didn't know him, so he added, "Aren't you from our village?" "Why, Boss Lu doesn't know me anymore, the big fire last month..." Wang Wei paused from his reaction, "Is there Zhonghua?" "Oh, it's a friend of the village chief's family. Why are you here again today? Wait a minute, I'll look for it. We don't have many people in Zhonghua, and no one can afford it. Those who can afford it, don't buy it. of." "Haha...not busy, let's forget about it." Wangwei leaned against the counter and looked at the things in the window. He pretended to be nonchalant and said, "I heard that the fire that day was caused by a cigarette butt. That The old man also buys cigarettes from you, right?" "Who says it's not. There are so many good cigarettes for my son, and I haven't smoked one for him. They all come to me to buy the cheapest." He turned around, holding a half of a hard-shelled red Zhonghua in his hand, "Hey, Don't talk about this kind of thing anymore. The old man is dead, and the ashram is doing well. But..." He stopped suddenly, closed his mouth, and stopped talking.Lu Qianan put Zhonghua Tobacco on the counter and stared at Wangwei. Wang Wei took out a fifty-yuan RMB ticket and bought a pack of cigarettes.While he was looking for money, he casually said, "Boss, do you sell rat poison here?" "Rat poison. Your house is plagued by rats?" "Yeah." Wangwei began to nonsense again, "There is a garage in my house, and there are always mice infesting. We have a cat in our house, and we took him to the garage and asked him to catch mice. I didn't expect that guy When I saw the mouse, I hid in the corner." His grin made the bald boss laugh out loud. "The cats we raise now can't catch mice, and the dogs we raise can't guard the door. They can only eat. I watched TV and said that now dogs still wear clothes and perm their hair, and they know how to enjoy themselves better than people." "Yes, yes." Wangwei nodded in agreement, "Boss, do you have any rat poison? It's better to be stronger, and the one that can poison cows is the best." Lu Qian'an ran out of the shop, looked at the square, and said mysteriously to Wang Wei: "Are you really a drug mouse?" "Of course it's true." Wangwei said to himself in his heart: I'm just lying to you. "Come here, don't be seen by those policemen, this thing is not allowed to be sold now." "Tetramine?" Wang Wei smirked, "I heard that this thing is the same as arsenic." "How else can we poison the mice to death?" Lu Qian'an squatted down, rummaging through the box, "You must keep it secret, don't let the police know, or I..." "I know, I know." Wang Wei hurriedly posted behind him, "But boss, why do you have the goods. I have searched several places, but I can't find it." "Hehe..." The store owner took out a red bag from the bottom wooden box. "The head of village Lu's house was building a house. He came to me and told me to kill the rat poison first, and asked me to get some rat poison. These are actually left over from that time. You don't need much, do you?" "Not a lot, not a lot. Just a little." Wang Wei took the rat medicine tightly sealed in a plastic bag, happily took the change, and bid farewell to the boss. "As big as Village Chief Lu's house, it must require a lot of rat poison." "Hey, he bought enough poison to kill a group of elephants with me, they don't need that much." Lu Qian'an suddenly stopped talking, he hurried back to his seat, picked up the book he hadn't finished reading, and cursed softly what. Wang Wei walked back to Jiang Quan and Zhang Ruya, and Huang Xiaoxie wandered to their side at some point.Hehe smiled, and said to Wangwei: "Did the big detective go to talk about it just now?" Wang Wei took out the cigarette and the plastic bag from his pocket, handed them to Police Officer Huang and said, "I'll give you all these, don't make a mistake, there's tetramine in my pocket." Huang Xiaoxie's face turned pale, and he blinked anxiously, "Tetramine, hey, the poison in Lu Yan..." Wang Wei repeated what he heard from Lu Qian'an, Zhang Ruya listened to it, and twisted her body uncomfortably, "I know, Uncle Lu's house does have rat poison, and it's placed in a box in the courtyard. in a tool room." "Who knows about this?" Wangwei asked again. "Everyone in the Lu family, no, most people in this village know that every day someone in the Lu family goes to play mahjong." "Huang Xiaoxie, give this to your police officer Qu. Remember to tell him not to make a fuss, not to startle the snake. There is already a lot of crime in this village. We need to be patient to lure the snake out of the hole. The opponent is very cunning. " "You think I'm an idiot." Huang Xiaoxie replied, unconvinced, he went to his director Qu Dawei. Wang Wei smiled, and said to Zhang Ruya, "Can you take me to meet your parents now?" "Ah, Mr. Wangwei, why?" "It's nothing, I just want to know something about the Lu family, I think your parents should be able to tell me." "Mom is talking with auntie. Dad, I don't know if he is at home now, maybe he is drunk again." She said, leading Wang Wei and the others to their home. Her father, Zhang Haixing, did drink a lot, but he didn't pass out.This middle-aged man, who was not even fifty years old, wrinkled his orange-peeled face, took a bottle of Taihu beer in his hand, and poured it into his mouth.He dared to drink beer in such a cold day, and Wang Wei admired him a little. "Chrysanthemum, who are these two people?" He asked with slightly open eyes. "Dad, they are...my friends." A man with a child's face walked in outside the house, looking furious, it was Huang Xiaoxie who came after him. "The director and the others have gone back, Wangwei, you have to take me home tonight." "Then why don't you go with them?" Wang Wei half sarcastically half seriously asked, and looked at Zhang Ruya.Huang Xiaoxie's face turned red all of a sudden, and he said to Zhang Haixing, "Uncle Zhang, do you still remember me?" Zhang Ruya was taken aback, his father was also surprised, he opened his mouth, sprayed the smell of alcohol all over the room, and asked, "Who are you?" "Huang Gang's son, do you still remember my father?" Zhang Haixing immediately sat upright, then relaxed again, and said to Huang Xiaoxie, "Is your father okay now?" "My parents are fine, Uncle Zhang..." "Wait a minute." Wang Wei waved his hand and interrupted him, "You'd better explain this to us." Huang Xiaoxie unceremoniously sat down on a stool and said, "Our family used to live in Lujiacun. My father and Uncle Zhang are good friends." "But." Zhang Ruya exclaimed, "I've never seen you before." "That's right, my father left Lu's Village a long time ago, before the two of us were born. But your father visited our house when he was a child, right, Uncle Lu?" "That's..." Zhang Haixing stuffed the wine bottle into his mouth, sipped it, and said vaguely, "That was all in the past. We haven't seen each other for more than ten years." "Huang Xiaoxie." Wang Wei said seriously, "What are you hiding from us?" Huang Xiaoxie said: "There is nothing to hide from you, but I know some background of this village. That's what I found out after I went back to the city this week and asked my father." "Can you tell me now?" Wang Wei asked again. "Of course, but these are old things, and I still want to ask Uncle Zhang to add some. In fact, I wanted to come here to ask again when I have time." Shi embarrassed, "Lujia Village actually has two villages. Our current one is an old village, and the other one is on the other side of the mountain. Among the original two villages, the one here lived in landlords, rich peasants and some squires, while The people on the other side of the mountain are all poor and lower-middle peasants. The village on the other side of the mountain was liberated long ago, and most of the people there later moved into the town, so that village disappeared in the 1980s. But this old village , but it was well preserved. Originally, this village was the Lu family village where Lu Xun’s descendants lived, and everyone in the village was surnamed Lu. But later, because of intermarriage, there were three more prominent families with three surnames in this village, so this Lu family village is in the At the end of the Qing Dynasty, there were four families, the largest of which was of course the Lu family, but the other three were not weak: the Zhang family, the Xu family and the Huang family." "What else?" Seeing him stop, Wangwei asked. "Didn't you find out about the Lu family?" "I asked, but my dad left Lujiacun during the Cultural Revolution. My dad didn't know what happened afterwards. I asked my dad if Lu Changguo's leg was broken during the Cultural Revolution, but he Tell me you don’t know. So Uncle Zhang, can you tell me? You should know.” Zhang Haixing stood up, threw the empty wine bottle out of the house, then went to the kitchen cabinet and took out another bottle of Taihu Lake water.With trembling hands, he opened the drawer under the door and looked for the bottle opener.His daughter yelled, "Dad, you can't drink any more." Zhang Haixing lifted the cap of the bottle without paying any attention, and said, "I don't know either." These three words made Huang Xiaoxie very angry, "No way, uncle. You..." "You're right if you don't want to say it." Wangwei interrupted suddenly, "After all, this kind of old scar should not be uncovered. It was all many years ago. There is just one thing I want to know, Lu Changguo used to What have you done? Of course you don't have to say it." An irresistible domineering power shot out from Wang Wei's eyes, and this power shot through Zhang Haixing's defense net woven with alcohol.He yelled strangely: "Okay, you know it all. Well, I can tell you that the old man was a soldier before. Not on the Kuomintang side. He fought devils, liberated Nanjing, and participated in the War to Resist US Aggression and Aid Korea. "He threw the undrinked beer out of the house again, and smashed it into the uneven patio yard, splashing broken glass and hops. Wang Wei stood up, took Jiang Quan's hand, and walked out, "Thank you." "Hey, Wangwei, why did you leave?" Huang Xiaoxie chased out unwillingly, and asked, "What exactly did you find?" Wang Wei stopped, looked at the little policeman and said, "Your reasoning ability is really good, boy. But your investigative skills are not good enough. You have laid out all the cards, what else can we ask?" .” "but……" "Don't worry, if you and Zhang Ruya are here, this Zhang Haixing won't say anything. Why do you think he always drinks? What do you think about his relationship with the Lu family? Why do you think he told you that he didn't know? What do you think? What about the relationship between him and your father? Your reasoning ability is not bad, if you have a bit of imagination, then you should be able to think of the things in it. " "So you already know?" "Not many, but you can find out if you ask someone to check." Wangwei walked to the entrance of the village and said to Huang Xiaoxie, "Now, I am going back to the city with Koizumi. Will you follow us back to the town? " Huang Xiaoxie blinked, blinked his eyes, stamped his feet, and jumped over.Before getting into the car, Zhang Ruya hurried over.She waved her hand and told Wang Wei and the others not to drive. "What's wrong?" Huang Xiaoxie pulled the car door and asked the girl who was chasing her, her tone was still gentle. "Mr. Wangwei," she said, bending down to the people in the car, "can you take me to the city again?" "What's up?" "Well, I don't know what my mother and auntie said. Anyway, Uncle Lu wants to let Lu Yu's sister marry his boyfriend on the day of the Spring Festival." The two men and one woman beside her showed expressions of surprise at the same moment.
