Wetland Park is coming soon.

Pedestrians in twos and threes are jogging on the sidewalk in the morning, and a few old ladies are practicing Tai Chi sword on the green land by the lake. There is a nine-snap corridor across a stone arch bridge, and the corridor is full of birdcages. All the old men were basking in the sun in the corridor, and exchanged their experience in raising birds by the way.

"Which one is Guan Jiu?" Xiao Su and Rong Rui crossed the arch bridge, looking at the crowd in the corridor.

Rong Rui scanned around, frowned and said, "No...he didn't come today?"

The two walked into the veranda quickly, Rong Rui took a closer look, shook his head and said, "I really didn't come."

"Is nothing wrong?" Xiao Su's heart sank.

Rong Rui was noncommittal, and said to an old man who looked very familiar: "Hello, Uncle, may I ask if Mr. Guan Jiuguan didn't come this morning?"

The old man has gray hair and looks to be in his sixties. He was elated when he called him "uncle" and said, "No, I'm still wondering. This old man is always rain or shine. We agreed yesterday to play mahjong together today." , did not come."

A fat old man next to him echoed: "That's right, I've booked all the seats in the mahjong parlor. Now I'm missing one out of three, and I'll have to ask him to pay for it later."

"It's all over now, I'm afraid he won't come." The old man said regretfully to Rongrui, "What are you looking for from him?"

"Ask him about that monk parrot."

The old man shook his head and said, "Then don't think about it, that monk parrot is his lifeline, and he won't sell it for any amount."

The two had a serious chat, and the old man had already hit it off with Rong Rui, told him the address of Guan Jiu's family in detail, and almost sent him there himself.

Xiao Su is also convinced of Rongrui, don't look at this guy who usually looks stern and doesn't allow strangers, if he really wants to get close to someone, it's easy to catch, and he will fall into his trap unconsciously.

After thinking about it, these words seem to have set some strange flag for myself...

Coming out of the Wetland Park, the two found Guan Jiu's home according to the address given by the old man, a half-new residential building.Rong Rui compared it with the information he found last night, and said, "It's right here."

Rong Rui rang the doorbell, but no one opened it, so he called Guan Jiu and turned off the phone.

"Is something really wrong?" Xiao Su was a little worried.

Without further ado, Rong Rui called Sun Zhisheng, and half an hour later, two police officers drove over on small motorcycles and said, "Which one is Officer Rong?"

Xiao Su admired Sun Zhisheng's coordination ability.

The Pian'er police checked the situation with Rong Rui, and without a word, called someone to break the door.It turned out that Guan Jiu was a lonely old man. His ex-wife and children had long since settled abroad, and he lived here alone.The area has a special emergency plan for lonely old people like him, and can take immediate action if something is wrong.

After a while, the door was pried open, and as expected, there was no one inside.Rong Rui cooperated with the police to check, and concluded that Guan Jiu should have left by himself, because there was an obvious space in the closet, his ID card was missing, all the water, electricity and water valves were closed, and the windows were also tightly locked.

"He should have run away." Coming out of Guan Jiu's house, Rong Rui frowned and said, "I didn't expect him to move so fast. He received a call from Lu Zhizhong last night, packed his luggage and ran away overnight."

Xiao Su worried: "Wouldn't he, like Wang Changyou and the others, receive the murderer's message and then go to die?"

"Probably not. With Lu Zhizhong's reminder, he can't be fooled like this." Rong Rui took out his mobile phone and sent a message to Sun Zhisheng, saying, "We must find him immediately. I suspect that the murderer is also looking for him. If he is taken the first step ,The consequences could be disastrous."

The morning sun was bright and warm, Xiao Su stood on the sparsely slanted road, but felt a deep chill.

If Guan Jiu really gave false testimony back then, the murderer would never let him go, because it was his repeated testimony that completely subverted the case.

"If your guess is correct." Xiao Su asked Rong Rui, "Guan Jiu twisted the facts and gave false testimony and sent Shi Peng to his death. Does that mean that the invisible victim we have been looking for has been found?"

"It's obvious that Guan Jiu got scared like this by a phone call from Lu Zhizhong." Rong Rui finished picking up the phone and said, "In Luo Cai's case, Shi Peng is probably the only one who died in vain in Luo Cai's case."

"So, who is avenging Shi Peng?"

No one could answer this question, Rong Rui was silent for a moment, and said, "We have to go find Lu Zhizhong again."

The two set off immediately, and drove to Lu Zhizhong's home, arriving at [-]:[-] noon, Lu Zhizhong and Lu Jie were both at home.

One day later, Lu Zhizhong seemed to be ten years older, his originally rickety waist became more and more hunchbacked, and he could hardly stand up with a cane.Lu Jie's expression was also very bad, apparently she had a dispute with her father about going abroad to work.

Lu Zhizhong didn't seem surprised by their visit at all, he asked Lu Jie to make tea as usual, and then sent her upstairs to stay.

"Guan Jiu is missing." Rong Rui said straight to the point, "Mr. Lu, it was you who called him last night, right?"

Lu Zhizhong lowered his slack eyelids, without nodding or shaking his head, he said for a long time, "Did Lu Jie tell you?"

Rong Rui didn't answer, but said bluntly: "Why did you inform him to escape? Are you afraid that the murderer will find him too? In fact, he was the one who overturned the whole case at the beginning. If it weren't for his repeated testimony, Shi Peng would not have He was shot! If Shi Peng hadn't died, then Ma Qiang, You Gang, Wang Changyou...and your daughter Lu Bai would not have died!"

He stared at Lu Zhizhong with stern eyes, and said solemnly: "Lawyer Lu, you must have never expected that your simple trick of overturning clouds and rain would lead to such terrible consequences, even sending your own daughter to a dead end... ..."

"Shut up, shut up!" Lu Zhizhong shouted with bruised veins on his forehead, panting, "Shut up!"

Rong Rui pressed on with every step, and said in a serious tone: "You are worried that the murderer will continue to take revenge and kill Guan Jiu, so you tell him to run away immediately. You are afraid that Lu Jie will suffer the same murder as her sister, so you would rather go to a nursing home than persuade her to accept it." Overseas job offer..."

"No..." Lu Zhizhong wailed in a low voice, and fell down on the sofa, clutching his chest and panting desperately.Xiao Su was taken aback by his pale face, and quickly got up to support him: "Mr. Lu..."

"Dad!" With the sound of footsteps, Lu Jie rushed down from the upstairs like a gust of wind, took a few pills from the drawer, stuffed them into Lu Zhizhong's mouth, and handed him down with a water glass, "Dad, how are you doing, Dad?" ?!"

Lu Zhizhong breathed a sigh of relief, collapsed on the sofa and gasped weakly.Lu Jie knelt down at his feet, her eyes were red, and she burst into tears: "Dad, is what they said true? Xiaobai...wasn't Xiaobai's death a medical accident? Was she murdered? The murderer is because of you..."

"Don't, stop talking..." Lu Zhizhong interrupted her with tears in his eyes.

Lu Jie broke down and cried: "Dad! How long are you going to hide from me? What are you still thinking at this juncture? Do you want the murderer who killed Xiaobai to go free? You want me to be like that Guan Nine things hiding in Tibet, living in fear and fear for a lifetime?"

Lu Zhizhong choked up and exchanged tears.Lu Jie said sadly: "Dad, please tell the police the truth! It's been so many years, and you're already your age, you can't make the same mistake again!"

Lu Zhizhong covered his face, and the knotted veins on the back of his hands trembled slightly. After a long time, he took a deep breath and said, "Okay, I'll say it, I'll say it..."

As Rong Rui guessed, at the beginning, the main culprit who actually killed Luo Cai was not Shi Peng, but Ma Qiang.

Ma Qiang is Wang Changyou's nephew and the most useful confidant on the construction site.Shi Peng is from another village, his parents died early, and there is only one old grandmother in his family, who is lonely and helpless.

The two of them were high school classmates. After Ma Qiang graduated, he went out with Wang Changyou. Shi Peng couldn't find a job, so he asked him to recruit himself to the construction site. From then on, he ran with him like his little follower.

On August 1997, 8, Wang Changyou asked Ma Qiang to take someone to Luocai's shop to pick a fight. Before leaving, Ma Qiang took Shi Peng with him.

Then something happened. Ma Qiang drank too much wine and accidentally stabbed Luo Cai in the right abdomen.Shi Peng was standing next to him, bluffing with a knife. When Luo Cai fell to the ground, his right leg hit the blade of his knife.

When they arrived at the Public Security Bureau, both of them were dumbfounded.Wang Changyou immediately found You Gang. You Gang was afraid that he would expose the recording of his abetting murder, so he had no choice but to find Lu Zhizhong and asked him to find a way to settle the matter.

Lu Zhizhong helped You Gang handle legal affairs for many years, and took a lot of benefits from him. After receiving the entrustment, he first contacted Wang Changyou, but found that this matter was too difficult to deal with - in broad daylight, there were all witnesses and material evidence, and it was not money at all. It's settled.

The homicide case is a public prosecution case, even if You Gang is willing to pay compensation and the Luo family is willing to keep it private, the public prosecutor will not let them settle down.

Hearing Lu Zhizhong's words, Wang Changyou had no choice but to take the next best thing and asked him to keep his nephew Ma Qiang no matter what.

After thinking about it, Lu Zhizhong decided that Li Daitao was stiff and tried to turn the main criminal into an accessory, and the accessory into the main criminal.

It may sound difficult to say, but it is actually quite simple to deal with.First of all, Ma Qiang prepared the two knives used for the murder, and Ma Qiang asked Shi Peng to hold them before going out, so the handles of the two knives had their fingerprints on them.

Then, Lu Zhizhong bribed Guan Jiu, the first witness at the scene, to overturn the first-hand testimony and push the murder knife on Shi Peng's head.

The last, and the hardest part, is to convince Shi Peng.

But people have weaknesses, and Shi Peng's weakness is his grandmother who has Alzheimer's disease.

In fact, Shi Peng is good at studying. If he were from an ordinary family, he might be able to pass the university entrance exam if he studied hard for a year. But his family is too poor, his parents are dead, and he relies on his grandmother to raise chickens and ducks and do some small handicrafts for a living.

So after Shi Peng failed the college entrance examination, he gave up repeating his studies and went to work on the construction site. He didn't want his grandma to get terminally ill and work so hard to support himself.

A 19-year-old boy suddenly hacked someone to death, and was so frightened that he was dumbfounded.Shi Peng was coaxed and deceived by Lu Zhizhong, and he thought the two knives were similar in nature. He heard that if he confessed the first knives for Ma Qiang, he would receive a large sum of money, take his grandma to see a doctor, and continue his studies after he was released from prison. Foolishly agreed.

Of course, don't even think about reading or something. What awaits him is the death penalty, which will be executed immediately.

"On August 1997, 8, I persuaded Shi Peng in the detention center to let him carry the knife for Ma Qiang." Lu Zhizhong slumped on the sofa as if he had been cramp, and said softly, "Later, he was sentenced to death. I went to see him again and told him that the top was cracking down hard and that he was hit by a gun. There was no room for change in this matter. But I told him that the money Wang Changyou promised him had already been handed over to his grandmother. In the future, he doesn't have to worry about grandma's life, old age, sickness and death, and someone will take care of him."

After a pause, he sighed: "It's still... Too simple... Too much emphasis on family affection, brother loyalty... I've seen too many young people like this."

After a moment of silence, Lu Jie sobbed and said, "Dad, what you said is true? Did you really send an innocent person to death 32 years ago?"

Lu Zhizhong burst into tears again, and said: "Yes, Ma Qiang was the one who deserved to die, and Shi Peng could be sentenced to ten or eight years at most. If it wasn't for me...he was entrusted by You Gang, he might have been released from prison now, married and established a career , full of children and grandchildren..."

He suddenly choked up and cried: "Retribution, it's all retribution! You Gang, Wang Changyou, Ma Qiang... are all dead, why, why didn't he come to kill me, why did he kill my Xiaobai... Ah! Ahhh ah!"

He wailed loudly, his slack face distorted into frightening lines, like a devil, like a condemned prisoner, like some kind of beast whose life was worse than death, it was frightening.

In the evening, Xiao Su and Rong Rui left Lu Zhizhong's house.

As the sun sets in the west, the sunset glow is as red as fire, reflecting the flower fields in the valley with magnificent colors, but Xiao Su is full of heavy heart, and has no mood to appreciate the beautiful scenery outside the window at all.

A lonely and helpless young man went astray like this, took the place of others, and ruined his fresh life.

Human life is worthless sometimes.

However, there are so many people who have worked hard and endured all kinds of sufferings, but they still want to live for a year, a month, or even just a day.

The shadow in his heart suddenly floated, Xiao Su hurriedly took a deep breath, ordered himself to pull out, and asked Rong Rui: "Who could be avenging Shi Peng?"

Rong Rui held the steering wheel and shook his head: "The village where Shi Peng lives is called Mawang Village. The people in the village are either Ma or Wang. The Shi family is an outsider and has no relatives. After Shi Peng's death, there is only one grandmother left in their family. In 97, the old lady was already over 50 years old and suffered from Alzheimer's disease, so she would definitely not be able to live now."

"So, it can't be a relative." Xiao Su said, "Could it be a friend?"

"It has been 32 years since Shi Peng was shot." Rong Rui said, "Hatred will fade with time. The murderer is so persistent, and he meticulously avenged him after more than 30 years. If it is a friend, I am afraid it is not ordinary. friend."

"Yes." Xiao Su echoed, "This person is too persistent and persistent... How can we find him?"

Rong Rui thought for a while, and said: "I have to go to Mawang Village to find Shi Peng's neighbors, classmates and friends... I just don't know how many useful clues I can find after so many years."

Xiao Su asked: "When are you going? Can I go together?"

"Tomorrow, it's too late tonight." Rong Rui said, "Don't you have class tomorrow?"

"Just the first quarter in the morning. Class ends at ten o'clock." Xiao Su said, "Just pick me up at the school gate at nine fifty."

Rong Rui thought for a while and said, "Okay, I'll go to the Municipal Bureau with Lao Sun early tomorrow to follow up on Guan Jiu's situation, and pick you up at school before ten o'clock."
