The fragrance of medicine fills the countryside in 1990

Chapter 21 Chen Hong was frightened, Zhang Linyuan had no alibi

After Su Chenjin quickly finished her simple breakfast, she carefully put the cigarette butt she found in the backyard into a transparent plastic bag. She gently stuffed the plastic bag into the inner pocket of her schoolbag to ensure that it would not be squeezed or damaged.

My brother Su Jin is not at home, and my father Su Li has gone to the county town for something.

Su Chenjin had no choice but to wait for the bus to the city at the entrance of the village.

Five minutes later, the shuttle bus arrived.

The car slowly drove out of the village. Su Chenjin looked through the car window at the fields and houses that were gradually receding. Subconsciously, she touched the pocket of her schoolbag. This cigarette butt might be the key clue for her to identify the suspect.

There are traces of saliva on the cigarette butt, which is the key to uncovering the truth.

After arriving in the county town, Su Chenjin went directly to the testing station.

She handed over the cigarette butt and the relevant application materials, "How long will it take to get the test results?"

The staff member took her things and showed a serious expression on his face. "Don't worry, we just had the New Year holiday and there are a lot of things to do. We will expedite the test results for you!"

This testing station is the most authoritative testing institution in the entire county, and her personal business needs to wait three days before getting a conclusion. This is the result after expediting.

This means that if the suspect strikes again within these three days, it would be very dangerous.

Su Chenjin knew that it must be Chen Tuhe, and the test report from the testing agency was a proof of her conclusion.

Before being sure about Chen Tuhe's next move, Su Chenjin believed that he must make full preparations.

She called Gu Xinliang, who relaxed his brows and said, "Don't worry, Chen Tuhe targeted Tianyi and Jiang Yue's sister-in-law in order to create chaos. He has only one goal!"

Su Chenjin held the phone tightly and paused, "Zhang Linyuan!!" Her voice overlapped with Gu Xinliang's words, and the two resonated with each other.

Gu Xinliang couldn't help but smile knowingly. Su Chenjin knew that the danger of the Su family was not over.

This is related to the relationship between the Chen family and the Su family.

Su Chenjin returned home at exactly two o'clock in the afternoon. The sun shone obliquely into the quiet Su residence, and mottled light and shadows danced on the bluestone floor.

Chen Hong and Aunt Chen were busy and not at home, which made the house, which was originally full of life, seem a little empty.

She gently pushed open the wooden door to the backyard, and a breeze blew by, bringing with it the faint scent of flowers and the fresh smell of water plants by the pond.

Little Tianyi's little bed was placed under the shade of the tree. Jiang Yue hugged him gently, and they both fell into a sweet dream.

Su Chenjin walked lightly, not wanting to disturb the tranquility.

Just as she was about to turn around and leave, her cell phone suddenly rang, and the words "Grandpa Zhang" appeared on the screen.

Her heart suddenly tightened, and she picked up the phone, only to hear Grandpa Zhang's voice with unprecedented anxiety and heaviness, "Xiao Jin, our Lin Yuan has been murdered!"

Su Chenjin's brows were furrowed. She tried to stay calm and asked softly, "Grandpa Zhang, don't be anxious. Tell me slowly. What's going on?"

It turned out that since Zhang Linyuan returned to Sujiazhuang, his disputes with Xiao Cui had become commonplace, frequent and fierce.

After a particularly heated argument between the two last night, Zhang Linyuan, contrary to his usual behavior, did not choose to flee in a hurry, but went to the village chief's house and immersed himself in the noise of mahjong, trying to kill time. However, on the dim way home in the early morning, he encountered a sudden attack.

Zhang Linyuan was rushed to the hospital. Before he could recover from the shock, a policeman appeared hurriedly at the door of the ward.

Grandpa Zhang on the other end of the phone spoke with an anxious and trembling voice that could not be concealed: "Xiaojin, you have to think of a way. Linyuan is innocent." Every word Grandpa Zhang said was like a heavy hammer, hitting Su Chenjin's heart.

Su Chenjin frowned, took a deep breath, and tried to calm down. She said calmly, "Zhang Linyuan asked you to find me, right?"

Grandpa Zhang on the other end of the phone was silent for a moment, as if hesitating, but in the end he nodded, with a bit of helplessness and determination in his voice: "Yes."

Su Chenjin quickly called the detention center and briefly asked about Zhang Linyuan's situation. After learning that he lacked key evidence of his absence, she decisively hung up the phone and turned to face Grandpa Zhang.

"Zhang Linyuan is the most suspicious."

That night, an extremely bad case happened at the scene where he was attacked. After Zhang Linyuan was beaten, Chen Tuhe came hurriedly and became the second eyewitness at the scene. There must be something fishy about such a coincidence.

Grandpa Zhang's emotions suddenly became agitated, tears welled up in his eyes, and he shook his head firmly: "Impossible, it absolutely cannot be him!"

Su Chenjin's eyes flashed with deep thought, and she asked softly but firmly: "Where were you last night?"

Grandpa Zhang's voice was trembling: "I'm at home."

Su Chenjin nodded slightly, determined to personally meet the troubled Zhang Linyuan.

She stepped into the cold detention center and saw Zhang Linyuan's eyes full of complex emotions, helplessness and confusion filled the air like a thick fog. He stared at Su Chenjin, his voice revealing urgency: "Xiaojin, you must believe me!"

Su Chenjin stared at him quietly, with a hint of determination in his tone: "It seems that he has already started to attack you."

Zhang Linyuan frowned, puzzled: "Why is he like this?"

Su Chenjin calmly told the truth: "The tempting cash flow from the supply and marketing cooperative was probably his motive for taking action."

Zhang Linyuan's case is complicated and entangled, and it is difficult to get out of it easily.

After Su Chenjin came back from the detention center, he returned to his room. The last rays of the setting sun shone through the window lattice, sprinkling on the wall in patches, trying to bring a touch of warmth to this deserted space. However, this tranquility did not last long.

As the night fell, a shrill scream pierced the quiet night like a sharp blade, waking Su Chenjin up. Her heart suddenly tightened, her nerves were like taut strings, and she quickly rushed out of the room, only to see Chen Hong collapsed on the ground, her face as pale as paper, her eyes full of fear and helplessness.

"There's a snake in the backyard!" Chen Hong's voice was intermittent, like a candle in the wind, which could go out at any time.

Su Chenjin's heart tightened, and an ominous premonition quickly enveloped him like a dark cloud.

She quickly grabbed the tools beside her and rushed to the backyard. She saw a colorful poisonous snake tightly wrapped around the rooster, its tongue constantly moving in and out, making a frightening hissing sound.

Su Chenjin's eyes flashed with determination, and she raised the tool in her hand without hesitation, and hit the venomous snake with all her strength. The venomous snake was shocked by the sudden heavy blow and loosened its grip on the rooster.

The big snake opened its bloody mouth and pounced towards Su Chenjin, with a fierce light flashing in its eyes.

Su Chenjin was prepared. She quickly dodged the attack of the poisonous snake, raised the tool again, and smashed it hard on the snake's vital point.

Thank you all for your support and love, bow!
