Reborn in 1995, Criminal Investigation Records

Zhong Yue has gone mad. I never expected it to have such consequences. I'm so sorry to her. It turns out I misunderstood her. Everything she said was true. I had misunderstood her.

However, I'm a victim too!

Who can know the grievances I've suffered over the years?

I was misled. I didn't do it on purpose. I didn't know beforehand. It's all a misunderstanding!

Of course, I feel sorry for the harm caused to Zhong Yue.

I made up an excuse to stay in Ning'an, and my mother didn't ask any further questions.

Many people heard about Chung Yuet's situation and came to see her, including the couple surnamed Chen who made me misunderstand.

I pretended to be her classmate and went to see her. She didn't recognize me. Her brother, sister-in-law, and uncle warmly welcomed me and were very grateful to me.

My heart finally settled down. I thought she would correct me, but it seems she really has gone crazy. No, it's just that the doctor said her IQ is stuck at the level of a five-year-old. Actually, it's not so bad. At least there's no trouble, right?

In the following years, I would spend two or three months each time looking for work near the sanatorium in Ning'an, not to earn money, but just to see that woman named Zhong Yue.

I often visited her when her relatives weren't around, and talked to her. At first, she was very scared, but later she accepted it. It turns out that even with the intelligence of a five-year-old, she was a lonely soul.

I told her not to tell anyone about my existence. I also told her about Changleyuan. In a few years, I will take her to live in Changleyuan. My ancestors and father are buried there, and they will protect me.

......

One day, I received a letter in my rented apartment. It had no signature and no postmark, and it asked me to meet.

When I arrived, I immediately recognized that the man was in disguise, wearing glasses and a wig. He told me that Gong Xiaojun had been buried alive because of me.

My business? You're crazy!

As I turned to leave, he told me that it was Zhong Tao and Yao Fengshou who had done it.

Zhong Tao and Yao Fengshou? I know these two very well. One is Zhong Yue's brother, and the other is her uncle. Why would they bury that guy named Gong Xiaojun? And who is Gong Xiaojun?

The person didn't answer me, turned around and left, completely ignoring me.

After making inquiries, I learned that Gong Xiaojun is the one spreading rumors about Q-Ting Chung Yue. Haha, how could that be? If he did it, then what am I?

But why would he be suspected?

After a period of investigation, I was horrified to discover that the modus operandi he described was exactly the same as mine, except that the killer had changed from me to him.

At that moment, I knew he must be a witness!

I need to investigate him further to see if he has told anyone else about this. But who is the person who wrote the letter, the one with glasses and long hair?

By following Gong Xiaojun, I discovered that he seemed to have changed his mind. After being discharged from the hospital, all he did was find the people he had bullied before, apologize, and repent, acting as if it were a real thing.

And what's with all this talk about divine birds like pigeons? Aren't pigeons meant to be stewed and eaten?

The Gong family's influence, or rather, their wealth, is truly remarkable. Gong Xiaojun actually found me!

This lunatic! He's trying to persuade me to turn myself in! He's giving me five days to think it over.

You're trying to be a good person, why are you dragging me into this? You're willing, but have you even asked how I feel?

He said that if I refused, he would report me to the police station, as he was a witness. Besides, he said that I could be found through some means, such as A, based on the things I left behind.

Damn it, are you threatening me?

If he doesn't want me to live a good life, then I'll just have to shut him up!

......

I used tools to break the lock leading to the roof, then climbed up and scattered some corn and wheat, because I knew that some people in this community kept pigeons, and my goal was to attract them.

You, Gong Xiaojun, like mythical birds and pigeons, right? Well then, with their help, I'll send you to hell.

In July, the weather was so hot that people didn't even want to look up at the sky, let alone stand on the scorching rooftop.

I succeeded; quite a few pigeons on the rooftop were attracted here.

Aren't they Gong Xiaojun's deities? Then I'll let Gong Xiaojun come on a pilgrimage!

A few days later, it was time to clean the water tank again. I took the lead and pretended to take the key from Old Chen to unlock it. Actually, it was just a feint; the lock was already broken.

We handed the key to Mr. Chen and started working. After we finished preparing, Ding Longlong and I were about to leave when he suddenly grabbed the padlock and insisted on locking it, but he couldn't.

I pretended to check it and told him to take it back for inspection and see if I could postpone it for two days, since changing the lock would make my plans on the rooftop more complicated.

Gong Xiaojun came when he heard that pigeons had gathered. I asked him why Zhong Tao had let him go.

He said that because he was receiving treatment at the time, an expert from Xijing was treating his syphilis. If it had been him, the chances of Chung Yue being infected would have been extremely high, and the virus could have been detected through the fluids left behind.

"Furthermore, I told Zhong Tao that as long as he has the handkerchief you left behind at the scene, he can get a DNA test done in Xi'an, which would be enough to convict him..."

He bastard, does he really think that just because he did so many bad things before, he can become a Buddha by laying down his butcher's knife? What an idiot!

I pulled the lock out of my pocket with my right hand and smashed it against his head, once, twice, three times...

I forgot how many times I hit him, but he must be dead.

Damn it, what bad luck!

When night falls, all I need to do is move the body out, find a secluded spot to bury it, and that's it.

To prevent the body from getting covered in blood when moving it, I cut open Gong Xiaojun's wrist to let the blood flow, because I've seen this done when slaughtering pigs and chickens for the New Year.

I let his upper body hang down over the water tank, and then laboriously lifted the lid to put it on. I thought that would put some pressure on him and help the blood drain out better.

I'm not planning to drink any water for the next couple of days.

However, I'll consider these residents as a gift from me. I've heard them talk a lot about ghosts, graves, and dead people in houses.

Let's add some stuff to your water and see if you still dare to talk nonsense, you long-tongued bastards!

......

What a big deal!

There is a problem with the residents' drinking water!

This shouldn't be happening. The water tank has a capacity of nearly 300 cubic meters. Even if you poured ten or twenty kilograms of blood into it, it shouldn't cause this situation. What exactly happened?

Looks like I'll have to make time to take a look!

We finally managed to dissuade Ding Longlong from his idea, but then that scoundrel Cheng Xun showed up and insisted that we inspect the rooftop water storage tank. No matter how we tried to persuade him, we couldn't stop him. It seems we're about to be exposed!

I reluctantly followed Ding Longlong and reluctantly climbed to the rooftop.

No, I have to be the first to see the body so I can pretend to be scared, then avoid police questioning without worrying about saying the wrong thing.

Once we got to the rooftop, huh?

The body has disappeared?

I pretended to search for it, and finally realized it must have fallen into the pool: "No, let's go check somewhere else!"

"Ideal, let's take another look. We can't be so careless!" Ding Longlong took out a flashlight and was about to shine it into the pool.

I was startled and quickly snatched it away.

"Go find a crowbar, this one's too heavy, let me take another look!"

While he was going downstairs, I shone my flashlight inside, and there was Gong Xiaojun floating in the pool. His pale, swollen face and dull eyes were staring at me!

There's no need to pretend. When Ding Longlong came back up, I was genuinely speechless with fright. Even though it was July, I felt my entire back was covered in sweat.

Ding Longlong thought I was just scared out of my wits.

"A person...a dead person!" I said, pointing at the pool and trembling.

He was also frightened, but he still managed to pry open the cover with a crowbar, then raised the flashlight. He was also so frightened that his face turned pale and his legs trembled.

The police arrived quickly. As the first person to discover the body, I was naturally questioned, but fortunately, Ding Longlong was there, which saved me a lot of trouble.

However, the young policeman's gaze made me feel uneasy, even terrified.

What, could you possibly find out?

......

My hunch was right again, but this is what I didn't want!

The police actually tracked down Zhong Yue. No, you should just focus on investigating Gong Xiaojun. Why are you investigating Zhong Yue?

To prevent the police from finding anything, my plans were disrupted. Before, I was always careful with every contact with Zhong Yue, fearing that I would be discovered. Now, I have no choice but to take the risk.

When I heard Chung Yue say "Chung Lok Yuen," my heart nearly jumped out of my chest. Fortunately, the police didn't get anything out of Chung Yue.

I almost forgot that she has the mental capacity of a five-year-old.

Perhaps I was too complacent, because Zhong Tao noticed me. Although he didn't recognize me immediately, he stared at me for a long time.

He often came to the sanatorium to see Zhong Yue. When I came, I would usually find a corner to watch Zhong Yue and never go up to her. He probably thought I looked familiar.

No, the police are still investigating Zhong Yue. I have to change this situation, otherwise, they'll find out about me sooner or later.

......

I appeared on the high slope of Changleyuan Community so that people could see me.

Then, I threw a firecracker, which successfully attracted a lot of attention. When they were looking at me, I pretended to be lame and limped away in a panic.

Then, I dropped the ticket I found at the bus station here, and to prevent it from being blown away by the wind, I pressed it hard into the mud with my foot.

Yes, I'm going to fabricate a story and create a fictitious suspect.

A couple of days ago, I contacted a friend in Ping Shui and learned that someone had returned from abroad and would be going back in the next couple of days. If I put all the suspicion on that person, wouldn't it become an unsolved case once they leave the country?

You can't exactly go abroad to apprehend a criminal, haha, what a brilliant idea!

Guilt? I would never feel guilty towards anyone but this person I framed. It was him who led me to do such a thing to the beautiful and lovely Zhong Yue. It was all because of him. Not putting him in jail was already an act of extraordinary mercy. Guilt? That's a joke!

I know there might be risks involved. If they can't identify the killer, they'll immediately realize that the real killer is deliberately misleading us, which will make my situation even more difficult. But I have no choice.

If I don't do this, they might find out about me!

Damn it, that bastard Gong Xiaojun, even in death he can't give us peace of mind. If his body hadn't fallen into the water tank, none of this would have happened. He deserves to die. Fortunately, he's really dead!

......

Today, after Zhong Tao met with Zhong Yue, he asked her some questions. I was standing not far away at the time, and I was so shocked that I broke out in a cold sweat. Fortunately, Zhong Yue's mental age is only that of a five-year-old, so she couldn't answer them.

But looking at his resolute expression, I felt that things were getting out of control.

really!

He frantically inquired about everyone at the sanatorium, looking for someone around 175cm tall, rather thin, with medium-length hair, who frequently visited the sanatorium...

Aren't these characteristics just like me?

He suspects me!

I need to confirm one thing: whether he knows I exist or not!

He went to his uncle. I stayed far away, but I overheard that "A" thing. I knew he was talking about DNA. This technology can identify a person based on their hair, skin, and even saliva. If the match is successful, then he is the murderer!

This is what I learned in my spare time. Gong Xiaojun didn't lie to me; this technology does exist, and it can be done in Xijing.

Suddenly, I felt a chill run through my body!

Then I remembered that a few years ago, during that case, I took out a handkerchief to wipe it, and then casually threw it on the side of the road. Could it be that...?

At that moment, I felt as if I had fallen into an ice cellar. Then I remembered that Zhong Tao had inquired about my whereabouts at the sanatorium. Did that mean that he had already begun to suspect me?

I even wondered if he had met Gong Xiaojun before, and if Gong Xiaojun had described my appearance to him...

No!

I can't let him go to Xijing. I'm going to destroy that handkerchief.

Four or five years have passed since this incident. Once this only piece of evidence is destroyed, Gong Xiaojun is dead, and Zhong Yue has the mental capacity of a five-year-old. Even if the two siblings identify me together, there will be no evidence!

Zhong Tao went home, and I followed behind him, hanging on at a distance. Less than an hour later, he came out again, headed straight for the highway exit.

There's a bus going to Xi'an that makes a brief stop at the transfer station at the Ning'an Expressway exit. I'd already inquired about it, and I knew then that it was definitely going to Xi'an.

I have to stop him.

When I stood before him, he wasn't surprised; instead, he looked at me with red eyes and said, "You've finally appeared!"

"You know me?" I was puzzled. Did he know me?

"You ruined Yueyue's life, and you ruined mine, Lili's too!" Listening to him say such nonsensical things, I felt a surge of irritation. Why does this person love to complain so much? Wasn't I ruined too? What did I say?

"I can marry Zhong Yue, on the condition that you don't go to Xijing!" I looked at him coldly. For the sake of his sister, I wasn't worried that he wouldn't agree.

"I'll marry you, you bastard!" He rushed up and smacked me in the face.

You're so ungrateful! If it weren't for you guys, these so-called brothers, sisters-in-law, and uncles, I would have been able to stay in front of Zhong Yue every day long. Why would I need to act like this?

Zhong Tao looked strong, but he was easily defeated; I grabbed him and knocked him down.

But he acted like a shrew, grabbing me and tearing my hair with his mouth.

I warned him several times, but he wouldn't budge, so I had no choice but to pull out a hammer from my pocket and strike him once, twice, three times...

His fingernails left marks all over my body, and my scalp was burning with pain.

I pushed him into the ditch and started searching. I searched twice, but I couldn't find him.

No, nothing at all, just a few loose dollars.

Did he forget to bring that thing?

At that moment, I accidentally saw his fingernail, which contained my skin and bloodstains. I think this could be used for DNA testing.

However, I was smarter this time. I even checked it out these past few days. Things that have been contaminated cannot be tested. Fortunately, there are plenty of good things in the ditch.

I flipped him over and buried him inside.

Bite me with your teeth?

Then I'll stuff all this stuff into your mouth and see how you test it!

After taking one last look at my work, I went home and slept soundly that night!
