Chapter One Hundred and Nineteen: A Lifetime Atonement
Even during the day, the office is still dark as at night, and only the computer screen on the other side of the desk reflects light.
A middle-aged man was sitting in front of the computer, with a beard, medium-length hair slightly curly, wearing a pair of black-framed glasses, and headphones on his head staring at the computer with concentration.
The light of the computer shines on his face, giving people a terrifying visual experience inexplicably.
"Uncle De..." Lin Shutong didn't dare to go in and called in a low voice.
Seeing that he was motionless, he might not be able to hear it, so he walked in and came to his desk, Uncle De..."
"Oh my god!" Feng Changde was startled by her and covered his little heart with both hands, "Do you know if you do this again, I will be scared to death by you!"
Lin Shutong was very innocent, "I'm already very quiet."
Feng Changde gave her a blank look and said angrily: "What's wrong again?"
"I have something to ask you." Lin Shutong spoke obediently, and saw that he had been staring at the computer and was a little curious, "Are you busy?"
Feng Changde nodded: "Yes."
Lin Shutong couldn't help but leaned over and rolled her eyes when she saw the beautiful girl on the computer screen, "Are you afraid that your aunt will find out?"
"Tsk." Feng Changde glared at her, "You girl asks things and asks things and takes care of me!"
"Okay, I just want to ask if you know a case about Lan Lan more than 20 years ago?" Lin Shutong went straight to the topic.
Feng Changde was obviously stunned, and his eyes were finally willing to move away from the computer screen, took off his headphones and looked at her seriously, "What are you asking for?"
"Uncle Jiang is dead."
"Jiang Yiping?" A trace of grief flashed across Feng Changde's face, "How did he die?"
Lin Shutong told him about the jade murder case.
Feng Changde leaned against the back of the chair and breathed heavily, "So, did you leave information about the Lan Lan incident on the scene?"
Lin Shutong nodded, hesitated for a moment before speaking: "Before, Master... Fang Changming told me that some case was hidden for my father more than 20 years ago. I guess it was because of this?"
Feng Changde looked at Yidi and fell into deep thought, muttering to himself: "Is it him..."
"Who?" Lin Shutong looked at his expression, "Do you know anything?"
Feng Changde looked at her with a curious look and turned his face away, put on the headphones again, "I don't know anything, don't ask me, didn't I say it? You can't help but come to me unless the company is about to go bankrupt and you can't help but come to me again."
"Why are you doing this?" Lin Shutong suddenly became anxious, "This is a life! There are no clues at all now. If you know, tell me it quickly. Moreover, you are also a member of Jing'an. You are still paying for this every day without caring about it. Many employees of the company are so scared that they dare not work on this level. Do you know?"
Lin Shutong is not very clear about the relationship between Uncle De and his father. He only knows that Uncle De was a bodyguard before. Once he did something wrong, he was fired and started to get involved in the evil. When he met his enemy, he was almost hacked to death. His father saved him. Since then, he has been staying in Jing'an.
But he is a withdrawn person and turns a blind eye to things outside the window. Unless a major accident occurs, he hides in his room every day and does not come out. Sometimes even Lin Shutong forgets that there is a person like him in the company.
Feng Changde disagreed, "If I hadn't stayed here because of your father's instructions, you should think I was the guardian dog here, and I would leave until the last moment. Don't ask me about anything else."
"Uncle De!" Lin Shutong stomped his feet, feeling helpless, "Do you really know nothing?"
"Well, I don't know." He was as cold as ever.
Lin Shutong turned around and left in anger.
An introverted weird uncle!
However, he must know something according to his reaction.
It seems that if you want to know everything, you have to start investigating Lan Lan's case.
Lin Shutong came to his father's office before his death and found many archives about the Lan Lan incident, which were fragmented and diary he used to record.
My mother kept this office, and all the items that my father worked during his lifetime were placed in place. Every week, my mother would come to clean it up in person. It seemed that as long as it was here, my father would come back.
The record of Lan Lan's incident was written in my father's diary, but because it took too long, the handwriting was a little blurred. Only it can be seen that my father also suspected that Lan Lan was unable to go so far alone when she was in a bad state of health.
The night came quietly, and Lin Shutong saw that his eyes were blurred when he looked at the information, but he made an unexpected discovery.
On July 4, 20 years ago, my father recorded this sentence.
"I will use my life to atone for my sins."
Atone for your sins for a lifetime...
Dad is honest and honest all his life. What kind of thing will make him write such words?
Lin Shutong felt as if she had entered a vast white world, and she could not see anything clearly around her.
What happened more than 20 years ago?
How did this Lan Lan die?
Uncle Jiang was tied to a jade stone and showed it to the public, with a knife in his chest... This behavior is more like revenge?
expose?
Does this matter have anything to do with what Fang Changming said?
Lin Shutong couldn't even think of it even though she wanted to break her head. She collapsed on the chair and felt her brain stagnant.
Steady footsteps came from outside the door, and Lin Shutong paused slightly and sat upright, staring at the location at the door...
A few seconds later, the door was pushed open, and Gu Jinyu walked in with a paper bag, with gentle eyebrows and eyes, "Didn't you eat?"
Lin Shutong breathed a sigh of relief and looked at him and smiled: "Well, I was fascinated by accident."
Gu Jinyu opened the bag, which contained a bowl of seafood porridge and bread, plus a cup of warm milk.
Lin Shutong picked up the glass of milk and drank it, feeling that he was alive again, "Ah, at this time, it is indeed still hot milk that can soothe people's hearts."
Gu Jinyu supported her hands on the table and leaned over and stared at her, "What about me?"
Lin Shutong's heart moved and said mischievously: "You are in my heart~"
Gu Jinyu smiled with satisfaction and touched her head, "Eat it, I'll take you home after you finish eating."
Lin Shutong nodded.
Gu Jinyu frowned when he saw the spread of information: "Are you investigating the old case from more than 20 years ago?"
Lin Shutong nodded: "Well, this information cannot appear at the crime scene for no reason. Maybe it is related to a case that my father participated in in the past. I want to check it."
"The police can find out all these things." Gu Jinyu looked at her helplessly, not expecting that she would work too hard.
He even wanted her to live her own little life carefree, and didn't want her to run around these dangerous things every day.
"I know, but I still want to check it myself. Maybe I'm faster?" She said sweetly while biting the bread, "Don't worry, I'll just check the information to see if there are any clues, and there will be no danger."
