Siheyuan: At the beginning, I was chased by a rich woman

Chapter 139 New Clues
North of the city.

Li Ye and Du Xinyong arrived at the gate of a remote courtyard.

Hearing the commotion in the courtyard, Li Ye and Du Xinyong couldn't help but glanced at each other.

They really didn't expect that Wang Sanhu, who was in the beheading business, lived in such a large courtyard.

According to common sense, shouldn't those in their line of work be as unobtrusive as possible?
Li Ye stood at the door thoughtfully for a while before walking in.

As soon as the two entered the door, they first knocked on a house in the front yard that was smoking from the chimney.

Then an old man opened the door.

Looking at the two unfamiliar faces standing outside, he couldn't help asking vigilantly, "Who are you looking for?"

Just as Du Xinyong was about to speak, Li Ye pulled his clothes behind him.

Old Du, with your appearance, don't let people mistakenly think that you escaped from prison, let me do it.

Then Li Ye showed a kind smile on his face, took out his ID and handed it over.

He opened his mouth and said, "Master, I'm from the bureau. I'm here to look for Wang Sanhu. Where is his home?"

After hearing Li Ye's words, the old man did not relax his vigilance.

First, he took Li Ye's ID, and then raised it above his head to look for Liang'er.

After looking over and over for a while, until he confirmed the pattern, he returned the certificate to Li Ye with a smile.

Then he said: "Hey, Wang Sanhu is not at home these few days, what's up with the two comrades?"

Li Ye nodded, put away his documents and asked, "Then is it convenient for you to take us to his house?"

The old man nodded, entered the room, put on a piece of clothing, and led the two of them to the back.

After arriving at the door of Wang Sanhu's house, Du Xinyong and Li Ye greeted each other, opened the door and walked in.

Li Ye, on the other hand, stood at the door, lighting a cigarette for the old man who was looking inside.

After chatting for a few words, he asked, "Hey, sir, is there anyone else in Wang Sanhu's family?"

"No, he has a bad background. He was a bad guy who had been in prison before. Girls from good families are not willing to marry him."

Before Li Ye could continue to ask, the old man shook his head.

Wang Sanhu had been in there for a few years because of fighting, and he was the key target of the street.

This is also the reason why the old man has been following them, just wanting to know if Wang Sanhu committed another crime and went in.

After returning home, we have a little talk.

The old man said that he had a good time, so he remembered to ask Li Ye what Wang Sanhu was doing.

Li Ye laughed aloud when he heard that, the information the old man gave him was basically the same as what they found out.

So he asked the old man if anyone had come to look for Wang Sanhu recently.

After hearing Li Ye's question, the old man said, "Oh, someone has looked for it. His old uncle came here a little while ago."

Hearing this, Li Ye couldn't help raising his eyebrows: Wang Sanhu never explained this information to him.

Afterwards, seeing that the cigarette in the old man's hand was almost burned out, Li Ye refilled another cigarette for him.

He asked calmly, "Oh? His uncle? How old is he?"

The old man couldn't bear to light Li Ye's cigarette, so he carefully put it in his coat pocket.

He frowned and recalled for a while and said, "His old uncle, is he more than 70?"

Li Ye didn't continue to ask after hearing the words. Wen Sanye is only in his 50s, so he shouldn't be.

However, just to be on the safe side, Li Ye went back to find Du Xinyong and took a photo of Mr. Wen, handed it to the old man, and asked if it was this person.

Seeing the old man read it three times before shaking his head, Li Ye felt relieved.

After chatting with the old man for a while, and handing the old man a cigarette, he entered the house to check the situation.

As soon as he entered the door, Li Ye saw Du Xinyong raised his chin with one hand and looked at the footprints on the ground.

Li Ye walked over and followed Du Xinyong's gaze to look at the footprints on the ground.

He asked aloud, "What did you find?"

Hearing this, Du Xinyong glanced at Li Ye.Pointing to the footprints on the ground, he said, "This man's footprints are the same as those of the monkey's family."

Hearing this, Li Ye felt a little strange in his heart.

So he told Du Xinyong the information he had just heard from the old man.

After Du Xinyong heard it, Li Ye was a little astonished.

Then he made a gesture of 7, raised his hand to the highest point, and even raised his feet for fear of expressing his unpreparedness.

He turned his head and looked at Li Ye in disbelief.

He said to himself, "How can an old man in his 70s climb such a high wall?"

Li Ye could think about it, but also thought it was impossible.

So he waved his hand and said, "Go, I'm going to ask."

After the two went out, they found the old man again.

When the old man heard that the two suspected that he was wrong, he was immediately unhappy, and took the two to find other neighbors to confirm on the spot.

After hearing the three neighbors speak in unison.

Li Ye asked them if they knew where Uncle Wang Sanhu lived.

Several people shook their heads to express their ignorance.

After thinking for a while, Li Ye looked at the old man and asked.

"Then how often does his uncle come?"

"It's been a long time, the last time I saw him was..."

As he said that, the old man stopped talking, recalled it carefully and continued: "It was four years ago, when he came back to tidy up the house and said he would live in it for Wang Sanhu."

As soon as the old man finished speaking, Li Ye frowned and asked, "Wait, you mean, this house belongs to his uncle?"

"That's right, his old uncle bought this house before liberation. Not long after he bought it, he said he was not used to living in it and went back to the countryside."

"Has anyone lived there before?"

"Yes, a woman lived there too, but for a short time."

Hearing this, Li Ye turned his head and said a few words to Du Xinyong, and Du Xinyong strode away.

After a while, Du Xinyong came in with some paper and a pen.

Li Ye looked at these neighbors with a smile and said, "Please tell me what old Uncle Wang Sanhu looks like."

Half an hour later, amidst the descriptions of several people, Li Ye finally drew a portrait that everyone recognized.

Not to mention others, Li Ye's move made Du Xinyong look at him with admiration.

As for that woman, no one had any impression of her because she lived there for too short a time.

In the end, Li Ye and Wang Sanhu left after finding no useful information.

Without a word all the way, I returned to the monkey's house.

Li Ye and Du Xinyong planned to tell Xu Jianjun the information first.

Walking all the way to the neighborhood committee, as soon as Li Ye entered the door, he saw the two old ladies who arrested him that day were also there.

At this moment, they were chattering around Xu Jianjun.

Xu Jianjun probably got annoyed, he turned his head and saw Li Ye and Du Xinyong.

Just when he raised his hand and wanted to say something, he couldn't help being stunned when he saw Du Xinyong's face, but he didn't say much.

He beckoned and said to himself, "Xiao Li, Xin Yong, are you back?"

Before the two could respond, Xu Jianjun continued, "Ok, let's go back to the factory and talk about it."

Then he turned to the director of the neighborhood committee and the two old ladies and said, "Thank you very much for your cooperation. Our colleagues have something to do with me, so I will leave first."

After speaking, he walked to the door without looking back, gave the two of them a wink, and then walked away as if fleeing.
