Restarting life by going to the countryside to support medical work

Chapter 523 Family
"Bang Bang Bang..."

After the old lady of the Guo family finished speaking, Li Yancheng knocked on the table calmly and said, "Don't be so excited. Just answer whatever I ask. After saying so much, you still have to answer the questions I ask. It's not worth it to make yourself so excited and get yourself hurt. Don't you think so?

Come, take a deep breath, sit down and let's talk slowly."

Li Yancheng's slow and calm attitude made the old lady of the Guo family feel like she had used all her strength to punch but hit cotton, which made her very uncomfortable.

Then she wanted to use her tantrum method again. This trick was particularly effective on them. Everyone who saw it would stay away from her. But she immediately realized that this trick would not work on the young man in front of her. The young man simply did not buy it. After all her efforts, she got no effect except that she was a little tired.

Thinking of this, she could only snort angrily, and sat back in her chair, not forgetting to make amends for herself.

"I'm telling you young man..."

As soon as she said this young man, the male policeman behind Li Yancheng began to sweat on his forehead. He wanted to say that this was a senior leader from the city, but after moving his lips, he swallowed the words back.

He suddenly felt that it would be better for him to speak less. This leader did not have a good impression of him. He must not flatter the leader badly, as that would cause him a lot of trouble.

Here, the old lady of the Guo family sat down and continued, "Even if there is a conflict between the two siblings, I know my son, and he would never do such a thing."

"Well, you are right." Li Yancheng nodded: "But please answer my question, where was your eldest son Guo Mingyi the night before yesterday?"

"You... of course he's at home. Where else could he be? What else could he be doing in the middle of the night?"

"Are you sure? How do you know he was at home at night? Did you go to his room at night?"

"You're asking that. He's already married, what am I doing in his room at night?"

The Guo family did not split up. The old couple and their two sons all lived in the same yard.

"So, you can't really say whether your eldest son, Guo Mingyi, was in the house the night before yesterday, right?"

"Mingyi can't possibly go out."

"Just answer yes or no, and don't say anything else."

"Uh...yes..."

"The reason I'm asking you this is because someone reported to our police that your eldest son, Guo Mingyi, hurried back from outside the village just after dawn yesterday morning."

The old lady of the Guo family immediately widened her eyes and said with trembling lips: "This... this... this is impossible, is he... is Mingyi... is he..."

Is it something? She couldn't even say it herself.

He came in from outside the village early in the morning, so it is very likely that he was not at home the night before.

Seeing that the old lady of the Guo family was silent, Li Yancheng continued, "Someone else said that they saw Guo Mingyi on the street of Qiaobei Commune the night before. Can you tell me what he was doing there at night? Qiaobei Commune is not close to your home."

"I……"

Looking at the increasingly panicked eyes of the old lady of the Guo family, Li Yancheng sighed in his heart. He really hoped that Guo Mingyi was doing something else, anything, just not something that would abhor both humans and gods.

Next, he asked the old lady of the Guo family a few more questions, but at this time the old lady's mind was obviously elsewhere, and what she said was often irrelevant.

Seeing this, Li Yancheng ended the interrogation, asked someone to pour a cup of hot water for the old lady, and then left the interrogation room and went to the next room, where the old man of the Guo family was being questioned.

After entering, Li Yancheng picked up the notebook and looked through it. The old man told his wife about the same things. He didn't know the whereabouts of his eldest son Guo Mingyi the night before.

Although their family nominally did not split up, in fact it was not much different from having split up. They lived in the same yard but did not even eat together. Every year after the production team distributed the grain, the old man and the old lady would give a share to their two sons. They ate with the youngest son and would give more to this side. The same was true for the money distributed by the production team according to work at the end of the year.

Li Yancheng saw in this record book that Mr. Guo said a little more than his wife.

For example, the relationship between Guo Meihua, her older brother Guo Mingyi, and her sister-in-law Xie Lingling was much worse than the old lady said.

During the time when Guo Meihua lived in her parents' home after her divorce, quarrels and fights were common, and there was even one incident where someone even swung a kitchen knife.

Guo Mingyi also made harsh remarks to his sister.

There is another very important point in what the old man said, that is, Guo Mingyi knew He Jianhua. What the old lady of the Guo family said just now was that they didn’t know this person with the surname He, and they had never even seen him.

The old lady still wanted to protect her eldest son, so she hid a lot of things from them.

Ugh……

Seeing this, Li Yancheng looked up at the old man of the Guo family who was sitting there with a somewhat bleak and listless look on his face.

The old man seemed to have sensed something, and his eyes showed a look of despair.

Putting the notebook back on the table, Li Yancheng walked to the side of the old man from the Guo family. The old man just sat there stupidly, ignoring and turning a deaf ear to the person walking beside him, without any reaction at all.

After walking over, Li Yancheng raised his hand and patted the old man on the back several times, and then patted him on the chest. As the slaps fell, the old man finally breathed a sigh of relief, and his originally hunched back straightened up.

The old man turned his head and looked at the young man standing beside him with surprise. He didn't expect that the young man had this skill. He just clapped a few times seemingly casually, but his depressed mood immediately became much better.

But that's all. The old man was already in an extremely bad mood because of his daughter's family affairs. Now he learned that the tragedy in his daughter's family was most likely committed by his eldest son. He was in good health for not dying here on the spot. It's normal for him to have some mental illness.

Li Yancheng's slaps on him were only to help him release the pent-up anger in his chest. If he was allowed to hold it in like that, the old man might seem to be fine now, but if he couldn't get the anger out, he would have to lie down within two days, and might even lose his life.

Heart disease needs to be cured with heart medicine, but in the current situation, it is difficult to cure his heart disease, unless it is finally found out that his eldest son has nothing to do with the bloody incident of his daughter's family. Only then can the old man's condition be alleviated. Otherwise... Without even taking his pulse, Li Yancheng can tell by looking at his face that the old man has only one year left.

Seeing the old man looking at him, Li Yancheng smiled faintly, took out a cigarette and gave it to him.

The old man of the Guo family raised his trembling hand and took the cigarette: "Thank you, thank you, public security comrade."

"You're welcome. It's already happened. All you can do now is to face it positively. We...we will definitely investigate the case that happened in your daughter's home. We won't wrongly accuse a good person, but we will never let any bad guy go."

After exhaling the cigarette he had inhaled, the old man nodded somewhat dejectedly and said, "I understand the truth, old man..."

At this point, the old man forced a smile on his face. "I went to school when I was a child, so I'm not illiterate. Regardless of whether my son or daughter is my daughter, I gritted my teeth and made sure they finished junior high school. I just wanted them to learn more knowledge and be able to distinguish right from wrong. Unfortunately... I still failed to educate them well. It's my problem, it's my problem as an old man!"

Li Yancheng didn't know how to respond to this. Education itself is a big issue. Society, family and school are all indispensable, but who can tell what the final outcome will be.

Sometimes, good and evil are just a thought away.

Li Yancheng said nothing, turned around and walked out of the interrogation room, and as he walked he ordered, "Pour a cup of hot water for the uncle, so he can have a good rest. The aunt is next door, so the old couple can stay together."

"Yes"

...Next is the youngest son of the Guo family, Guo Mingli, and his wife. Both of them are honest and decent people. It is true that there are many kinds of people.

What made him feel a little strange was why the old couple of the Guo family and Guo Mingli and his wife both said that they did not hear any noise in the yard on the night of the 11th.

Young people sleep deeply and won't wake up even if there is a little noise. He can understand, but what about the old couple? Old people usually sleep lightly and will wake up at the slightest noise. They also get up early in the morning, not to mention that rural people get up early anyway.

But according to what the old couple said, not only did they hear nothing on the night of the 11th, but when they woke up on the morning of the 12th, it was already past six o'clock.

This is a full hour later than their usual wake-up time. Could it be that...

Thinking of this, he looked up at Guo Mingli and asked, "What time did you wake up yesterday morning?"

"What time did you wake up? It seemed to be around six, anyway it was already bright outside."

"What time do you usually wake up in the morning?"

"Usually we all get up around five o'clock, and it will be even earlier during the busy farming season, huh?" When Guo Mingli said this, he was stunned for a moment, then he raised his hand and scratched his head, and said with a suspicious look on his face.

"If you hadn't mentioned it, I wouldn't have paid attention to it. Yesterday morning, it seemed really strange. My wife usually gets up at five o'clock without fail, but she slept until six o'clock yesterday morning. After waking up, she told me that her head felt a little dizzy. I had that feeling, too. My two sons couldn't even be woken up this morning, as if they couldn't wake up.

My mother even asked my wife if she had caught a cold and asked her to find some medicine. She and my father also felt dizzy and said that the busy farming season was coming soon and we should not get too sick to get up.”

After hearing this, Li Yancheng already had a rough idea in his mind. He thought that he might have been drugged, which was why he slept so deeply that night.

Therefore, he asked someone to call Guo Mingli's wife over to ask her about it. There must be no problem with the cooking time. They usually eat around four o'clock in the afternoon. If she was drugged at that time, the drug effect might only take effect at five or six o'clock. It would definitely feel very strange to go to bed at that time. It should be a little later.

Sure enough, according to the recollections of Guo Mingli's wife, Guo Mingyi's wife Xie Lingling was indeed a little weird the night before. When they were chatting and enjoying the cool in the yard at night, she actually took the initiative to pour water for everyone.

You know, apart from being able to do some housework in her small home, Xie Lingling is so lazy outside that she doesn't even bother to help when a spilled oil bottle falls over. However, she took the initiative to serve them tea and water. I didn't feel anything at the time, but now think about it, why is there a weird atmosphere here?

Guo Mingli and his wife looked at each other, and saw surprise in each other's eyes.

Although the couple were honest, they were not stupid at all. They had thought of that possibility.

……

"Arrange for someone to send the old couple and the two of them back first, and search the house where Guo Mingyi and his wife live. When searching, ask the old couple and at least one production team cadre to be present. Be sure to be thorough. Any medicines and powdery substances found in the house must be brought back for testing.

Dongjun, take our team members over to search in person."

Li Yancheng no longer trusted the people in Rouhuai County Bureau, not because of their work ability, but because of their work attitude. Therefore, he would rather hand over the work to the people in the headquarters who were not familiar with the local area.

A team leader of the Criminal Police Team of Rouhuai County Bureau had turned pale. The leader obviously did not trust them. But why? There must be a reason!

As he thought about it, he turned his gaze to the policeman who had just followed his leader to question the old lady from the Guo family.

After seeing this, the policeman tiptoed over and whispered something in the captain's ear.

After hearing the reason why his leader didn't trust him, the team leader's originally pale face suddenly turned black, pitch black.

Although the people who went to investigate and visit the Guo family yesterday were not from his team, they were all from the Rouhuai County Bureau. Facing the leaders of the Municipal Bureau, they were a whole, and they would prosper together and suffer together.

Now the city bureau leaders have begun to distrust them as a whole because of the inaction of a few individuals, which has caused the team leader to feel a great sense of crisis.

He didn't have time to report the matter to Captain Liu. After Vice President Zhu took the order and left, he carefully walked two steps to Li Yancheng's side and stood still.

"Director Li"

"Huh?" Li Yancheng turned around and saw that the person who called him was a policeman from Rouhuai County Bureau. It took only a quick thought for him to remember this person's identity.

"You are Captain Chen Bin of the Second Squadron."

Chen Bin was shocked, he did not expect that the city bureau leader had such a good memory. He just introduced himself at the first case analysis meeting yesterday, and he did not expect that this person actually remembered it all.

It’s better to remember!
He took another small step forward, hesitated for a moment, and then said, "Director Li, I have to admit that some comrades do their work perfunctorily, but those few people cannot represent all the members of our Rouhuai Criminal Police Brigade, and you cannot be prejudiced against all of us just because of those few people."

Hearing this, a smile appeared on Li Yancheng's face. He really admired the squadron leader for having the courage to speak like this in front of him. No matter what, this attitude of fighting for oneself is worthy of recognition.

"You're right. We shouldn't erase the efforts of everyone else just because of the mistakes made by a few people."

Li Yancheng nodded: "But, for me, the case is the most important thing now, I don't have time to distinguish which of you are responsible for the work and which are just slacking off.

Therefore, there is only one way left for me, and that is to choose the person I trust the most. As for the others, I can only discuss it later.

You are now the squadron leader, and you command a group of brothers. You spend almost every day with these people, and you know each of them very well. You know their personalities, their tempers, and their attitudes towards work. Because of this, you can be more targeted when arranging work.

But I am different. I don't know you comrades in Rouhuai County Bureau. The Yang family bloody case has two dead and two missing. This case has been registered in the city. The golden 72 hours after the incident are the most important. Now it has been nearly 48 hours since the incident.
Do you understand what I mean now?"

"I see." Chen Bin raised his hand and scratched his head a little embarrassedly: "I'm sorry, Director Li, I was distracted, but please assign me some work. My brothers and I will definitely complete all the tasks assigned by the leader excellently."

"Okay." Li Yancheng did not refuse his request. He raised his chin and gestured to the side.

"Director Lin and Director Wang are questioning Guo Mingyi and his wife Xie Lingling separately, but they haven't come out yet, which shows that the couple is very stubborn and unwilling to cooperate.

Go in now and take a look at the situation there, then share the information we have compiled with Wen Tao and Chang Hai so that they can use it as a reference."

"Yes." Chen Bin saluted very respectfully, then turned around and walked quickly towards the interrogation room at the side.

……

The couple's teeth were really clenched, they were so tight that they didn't know anything. Guo Mingyi even refused to admit that he had gone out on the night of the 11th, and said that others must have seen him wrong, as he had been at home the whole night, let alone going to Qiaoba Commune so late at night. He had not even left the house after dinner on the afternoon of the 11th.

If you ask more questions, they will start to act like rogues, saying that the police have wronged a good person. Without resorting to any tricks, there is really no good way to deal with them for the time being.

Whether he entered the village at dawn or appeared on the street of Qiaoba Commune in the middle of the night, although someone could point out he was there, these were not direct evidence. There was no way to confirm that Guo Mingyi had been to the scene that night, let alone that he was responsible for the Yang family murder.

Even though the two chief judges later gathered other information and began questioning the couple from other aspects, they still could not get any truth.

In short, he just refused to cooperate, and acted like, "If you have the guts, show me the evidence."

In fact, the more they refuse to cooperate, the more it shows that there is something wrong with them.

The way this couple looks now is obviously because they were taught by someone.
