Arriving at the gate of Dingsheng Coal Washing Plant, Song Qing shouted at the top of her lungs for Uncle Jin. When she was about to shout, Jin Ernian finally limped away from the row of bungalows next to the office, leaning on a wooden stick.
He walked over. When he saw clearly that the two policemen standing at the gate were the same two policemen who came last time, there was clearly a look of resentment in his eyes.
"Uncle, please open the door. We will ask you to find out more about the situation." Song Qing said in a hoarse voice.
Jin Ernian stood in the door and hesitated for a moment, perhaps thinking that if he didn't open the door, they would call Ding Sheng, who was always cursing when he came, and finally opened the door to let Zhou Zhongping and Song Qing come to the room where he lived and worked.
In the guardhouse hut.
"Uncle Jin, we are here to confirm with you whether anyone has been here recently?" Zhou Zhongping set a trap when he started asking questions.
"No, I told you last time, no one has been here." Jin Ernian answered with his head lowered and his eyes slightly closed.
"Okay. Uncle Jin, since you answered like this, let's not talk about it." Zhou Zhongping paused deliberately to observe Jin Ernian's reaction.
After Jin Ernian heard Bu said this, his shoulders visibly shrank downwards, he breathed a sigh of relief, and continued to maintain his silence.
Zhou Zhongping saw Jin Ernian's reaction in his eyes, and continued with a smile on his lips:
"Uncle Jin, I heard that your favorite dish is casserole lion head, right?"
After Jin Ernian heard this, he suddenly raised his head and stared at Zhou Zhongping with his eyes full of suspicion. Then his pupils shrank significantly. This is normal behavior when people are nervous and scared.
emergency response.
Seeing that Jin Ernian was silent, Zhou Zhongping continued:
"After eating the lion's head casserole at Qinglai Inn for so many years, you've become emotional after eating it, right?"
Jin Ernian folded his hands on his chest, frowned and asked:
"I do not understand what you are saying."
"To be honest, after I learned about your family situation, I was actually quite relieved to know that you have such a filial grandson." Zhou Zhongping introduced the topic to Jin Tie.
"What on earth do you mean?" Jin Ernian became a little angry and poked the ground in front of him with his wooden stick.
Seeing that the time was almost up, Zhou Zhongping took out the account book of Qinglai Inn from his bag, waved it in front of Jin Ernian and said:
"According to the proprietress of Qinglai Inn, your grandson Jin Tie will ask for a lion's head casserole at Qinglai Inn every month, and pack it to come here to have a few drinks with you. According to the records in the account book, Jin Tie came to you for the last time
This is April 5th."
Just now, Jin Ernian was holding the crutch with one hand, but now his trembling hands could no longer hold the crutch with one hand, and he had to use both hands to grab it hard to prevent himself from shaking even more. He
Beads of sweat began to appear on his forehead, and his face gradually turned red.
"Tell me, you can't hide it anymore. We have not only found evidence but also witnesses. It is an ironclad fact that Jin Tie came to the factory on the night of April 5th."
Jin Ernian was trying hard to control his body and remained silent without saying anything.
"The key to the Dingli Coal Washing Plant was given to Jin Tie, right? Tell me, if you confess now, it will be beneficial to you and your grandson's future sentencing."
Jin Ernian closed his eyes and remained silent.
"Tell us everything you know and we can apply for meritorious service for you. Maybe you will have a chance not to spend the rest of your life in prison."
Jin Ernian's body twitched slightly, and he contracted his body again, but still didn't say a word.
Seeing that Jin Ernian didn't speak, Zhou Zhongping had no idea for a moment. According to the law, the police had the right to criminally detain Jin Ernian and take him back to the police station after they had the evidence that Jin Ernian deliberately concealed the case.
Zhou Zhongping went to inquire. However, considering that Jin Ernian was older and not in good health, Zhou Zhongping still called Liang Shi and asked for instructions.
After listening to Zhou Zhongping's report, Liang Shi also considered Jin Ernian's physical factors and believed that if he was taken back to the police hastily, he would be a hot potato in case of physical problems. In the end, Liang Shi considered
Xu Jiu said to Zhou Zhongping:
"I think it's better not to bring him back yet. Although his testimony is very important, it is still very difficult for you to convince an old man to identify his grandson."
"Yes, and this grandson is the only person in their family who is close to him."
"The way I see it, with the clues from Qinglai Inn, we can at least prove that Jin Tie lied about whether he had met his grandfather. We can bring Jin Tie back to ask questions first."
"Okay, then we will return to the team immediately."
After Zhou Zhongping and Song Qing left the coal washing plant, Jin Ernian immediately locked the main door and the small door of the coal washing plant tightly, and then walked to the office tremblingly on crutches.
In fact, Jin Ernian did not give Jin Tie the key to the Dingli Coal Washing Plant. He discovered that one of the keys was missing the day after Jin Tie came to visit him. Because no one else had been to the coal washing plant, he first
He suspected that his grandson had taken the key. He came to Dingli Coal Washing Plant, opened the door and saw a rut mark of weeds being crushed inside, and he realized that his guess was right.
One afternoon, Jin Ernian was walking in the factory. At that time, his legs and feet were still flexible and he was not holding a stick. He suddenly saw a car coming from the factory next door through the fence wall between the two factories. He also saw a car coming from the factory next door.
He saw his grandson Jin Tie pulling two men and a woman out of the car and pushing them into the kitchen. After a while, he saw Jin Tie driving away alone in the car.
Seeing this scene, Jin Ernian couldn't calm down anymore. He struggled with his thoughts all afternoon. At night, he found the key and opened the door of Dingli Coal Washing Plant, and came to the kitchen. The kitchen was in a mess. It turned out that the wall was against the wall.
All the things on display fell to the ground, and it seemed that a fight had occurred here. He searched around and couldn't find the two people brought in by his grandson. Just when he thought he was dazzled, he suddenly realized
I heard the freezer against the wall humming.
Lao Jintou walked to the freezer, opened the lid of the freezer with both hands, and looked inside the freezer. Two corpses suddenly appeared in front of him. Jin Ernian's legs weakened and he fell to the ground. The lid of the freezer made a "bang" sound.
A loud noise.
That night, Jin Ernian lay down next to the freezer in the kitchen for a long time before getting up. It wasn't until dawn the next day that he climbed outside the door and found a branch to support himself and stand up.
His legs became weak from that day on, and he could not walk without the support of wooden sticks. Lao Jintou was aging rapidly, and he began to lose sight of food and food, squatting at the factory gate every day, waiting for his grandson to arrive.
