"How could you recognize Wang Yu in your brother's state?" Jiang Zi asked.
Xu Tao raised his head and said unconvinced: "My brother had no mental problems before, but his mind was relatively simple and he could still recognize people."
I thought of the sky when Xu Hai appeared this morning, and asked, "Even so, it wasn't very bright after six o'clock. How could Xu Hai see that person's face clearly?"
"I didn't see his appearance clearly, but my brother said that the man had a bald head. There is only one bald head in the town. It's not who he is..." Xu Tao replied.
"Has Wang Yu discovered Xu Hai?" Madge asked.
Xu Tao shook his head and said, "Probably not. When my brother saw the door of Lu Yushan's house opened, he hid it and waited until Wang Yu left before he came out."
"Then how many times has he seen it?" Crazy Brother asked again.
"Only encountered it once."
"How can you be sure that Wang Yu and Feng Rong had an affair if it was only once?" I asked.
Xu Tao said: "Wang Yu was very kind to our family. I was more concerned about this matter and asked specifically about it. That night, Lu Yushan happened to be staying in the lumber factory."
"Then have you asked Wang Yu for confirmation?" Madge asked.
Xu Tao shook his head and said: "No, everyone in the town knows that he has to observe mourning for his parents for three years. I asked rashly like this because I was afraid that he would be embarrassed. Besides, I don't have a good impression of Lu Yushan. Whether he is a cuckold or not has nothing to do with me.
.”
The old cat snorted coldly: "You really have nothing to do with this matter and just hang it up!"
The interrogation lasted for nearly an hour, and among the questions Xu Tao answered, the most valuable was the fact that Feng Rong's concubine was Wang Yu.
"It's hard to believe that such a skinny Wang Yu can handle two women at the same time." After walking out of the interrogation room, the old cat clicked his tongue.
"What's the point? He and Feng Rong don't get together every day." Jiang Zi said with a smile.
Crazy brother said: "Don't jump to conclusions so quickly. The matter between him and Xiaoying has not been confirmed yet. By the way, Yuan Chen, call Wen Xin and ask about the situation there."
It was already after seven o'clock and it was getting dark. After the call was put through, Wen Xin rang several times before answering. I asked her where she was and she said she was in the hospital.
I asked: "Why haven't you gone home yet?"
"Xiaoying was having an infusion just now, and Wang Yu was always with her. It's not convenient for me to ask. The infusion is almost over now, so I'll take the opportunity to send Xiaoying home and ask."
"Wang Yu was in the ward just now?" I asked immediately.
"Here, what's wrong?" Wen Xin was a little strange.
I asked again: "Has he called?"
There was silence on the other end of the phone for a few seconds, and then Wen Xin's voice came: "No, he was with Xiaoying in the ward when I arrived at the hospital. He never left or called."
This is strange. Feng Rong's lover clearly called her twice just now. She answered the phone the second time and talked for a minute or two at the police station, but Wen Xin said that Wang Yu had never left the ward.
Then, the caller is not Wang Yu. In this case, who is the bald head Xu Hai saw?
"What happened?" Wen Xin's tone was a little anxious.
I hurriedly told her the contents of Xu Tao's confession, and Wen Xin also felt strange after hearing it: "From what we have learned, it is true that Wang Yu is the only bald person in the town, but Wang Yu really didn't make a call just now."
"Yes, did Xu Hai see it wrong?" I tried to speculate.
Wen Xin said: "No, although Xu Hai lacks intelligence, his bald head is so obvious that even children can recognize it."
The word "obviously" touched my nerves, and an idea suddenly popped into my head, so I asked, "Could the bald head be an adulterer in disguise?" Wen Xin immediately understood what I meant: "You mean, adulterer?"
In order to hide yourself, you specially wore a bald hood?"
I continued: "Yes, the adulterer spent the night at Feng Rong's house. He would definitely not wait until dawn before leaving. And when it was dark, he wore a bald hood. Even if someone accidentally saw him, he wouldn't recognize him.
Reveal his true identity."
"Well, this possibility is very high, but Wang Yu's bald head is well known in the town. Doesn't the other party deliberately frame him by having a bald head?" Wen Xin analyzed.
"Does he have a grudge against Wang Yu?"
Wen Xin didn't say anything. I was about to ask again when I heard her say: "Wang Yu helped Xiaoying out. Hang up now. I'll call you later."
When I told the three crazy brothers about this, they were also a little surprised. They didn't expect that Feng Rong's adultery was so complicated.
"Such a small Qingshan town is really a hidden dragon and a crouching tiger!" Crazy Brother couldn't help but sigh.
Jiang Zi joked: "Old Cat, when you were working in the town, didn't you realize that there were so many 'actors' here?"
Old Mao shook his head and said: "Except for Chu Jianhua, I really don't see anyone who has this ability. Talents are all talents!"
I smiled and added: "Chu Jianhua is different from what he looks like. It's not something you can tell. He told you himself."
"Let's not talk about it for now. Let's go eat and meet Li Huiguo by the way." Crazy Brother said and walked towards the door of the police station.
The policeman on duty was handling matters at the moment. Crazy Brother arranged for Jiang Zi to stay and watch Xu Tao. The three of us went to a restaurant to eat and then brought him back after eating.
It was almost eight o'clock when we arrived at the restaurant. At this time last night, there were only one table of us left in the restaurant, but tonight there were two tables. The sound of punching was mixed with the cries of children, and it was very lively.
Li Huiguo was busy in the kitchen. His wife came over to ask us to order. I said casually: "Madam boss, business is good tonight."
She replied with a smile: "The child of a family in town turns one today, and they invited some friends."
I looked over and saw a young woman breastfeeding a child, and a young man sitting next to her. Other than that, they were all middle-aged and elderly people.
In my hometown, when a child is one month old or one year old, relatives and friends from both sides are invited together, and at least there are more than five tables. This also shows that the permanent population of Qingshan Town is indeed small.
After the proprietress left, Old Mao picked up the teapot and poured tea into our cups and said: "With a small population, business will naturally be difficult. I have worked in the town for several years and have witnessed the rise and fall of several restaurants. Only
Li Huiguo's house has never stopped having guests. The two of them are busy from morning to seven or eight in the evening every day. Just tell me, even if they leave Qingshan Town, they will come back for a meal from time to time. Otherwise, I will feel sad.
Always thinking about it."
Crazy brother said: "We only had two meals yesterday. The food here is indeed good, but it is not as good as you say. I see, there are too few restaurants in this town, and you have no comparison."
I also nodded and said, "Yes, these are home-cooked dishes. I guess you have developed feelings after eating them for a long time. Many people just eat 'local food'."
The old cat listened and said with a smile: "What you said makes sense."
