Although he said he didn't believe it, Xie Liuyun also felt a little lack of confidence.
He couldn't answer Yong Ming's questions.
And the fact is indeed like this. The working hours of factories are earlier than those of government agencies. Although the working hours of various manufacturers are not uniform, as a worker in a machinery factory, there is no reason why Brother Zhang should not go to work after eight o'clock.
The reason why he didn't go to work after eight o'clock that morning was that maybe he didn't work in the machinery factory at all. He knocked on the door to inquire whether his concern was false, but whether he came to inquire about his situation was genuine.
Xie Liuyun couldn't turn around emotionally for a while and was very disappointed.
"Brother Xie, you were followed at the bus station. Didn't you ever think about who leaked your whereabouts?"
Yong Ming continued to guide Xie Liuyun's thoughts and reminded him.
"I first told Brother Zhang that I wanted to return to my hometown, and later I told Uncle Liu at the police station. He also issued a letter of introduction to me."
"Well! This is interesting. Let your whereabouts be revealed, notify someone to follow you, and then intercept you halfway out of the city. If these things are done by one person, it would be okay. Whether it is Zhang from the machinery factory or from the police station.
Uncle Liu, as long as they are not a group of people, it is fine. I am afraid that if they are a family, the situation will be difficult to predict."
Seeing Xie Liuyun worried, Yong Ming deliberately dropped the line first and asked: "Brother Xie, what do the other two tenants on the first floor do?"
"One works in the Education Bureau, and the other is a colleague in the same school as my father."
"Both of these two people are educated. They are related to your father's profession and have similar social circles. It is in line with common sense and common sense. I don't know who the person named Zhang who works in the machinery factory came to rent your house through someone's introduction.
of?"
"Ming Gong, after listening to your analysis, I am very worried now. I heard from my father that Brother Zhang was introduced by Uncle Liu. Because Uncle Liu was the guarantee, my father was very relieved and rented the house to
Brother Zhang."
"Then I have a question. Do you know why your father rents out the house on the first floor? Is it because the family does not have enough money? Or is it for some other reason?"
"Ming Gong, to tell you the truth, my mother passed away early, and I don't care much about the family affairs. My father takes care of it all by himself. As for the reason why he rented out the house on the first floor, I really don't know.
However, I don’t think it’s because of family problems. My father’s income is good, and his hobby is buying books. Other than that, he doesn’t have any hobbies.
My income is also good, and I don’t have any big expenses except for some unavoidable entertainment.
To say that we need to rent out a house to supplement our family income is not necessary for our family."
"There is no need to rent out a house, but I do unnecessary things. I don't think it is a lot of trouble, but I am asking for trouble. What is the reason for this?"
Yong Ming asked himself, thinking, and suddenly he looked up at Xie Liuyun, "The other party has lost control of you. The two tenants on the first floor of your house are in danger."
When Yong Ming said this, Xie Liuyun was very surprised, "Ming Gong, they are just tenants of our house. Our family's affairs have nothing to do with them. How can they be in danger?"
"They are your father's subordinates, how can they not be involved? Now that you have escaped, it will be difficult for them to stay alone."
Xie Liuyun was confused by Yong Ming's words and sounded confused.
Seeing that Xie Liuyun didn't understand what he said, Yong Ming said bluntly: "Brother Xie, there was no need for your father to rent out the vacant house, but he did so in the end, and the renters were Director Liu of the Education Bureau and his colleague Wang.
Teacher, this shows that they have a good relationship with your father.
You already know your father's true identity. He deliberately concealed it from you because he had his own considerations. Now I will not discuss whether it is right or wrong to do so.
I'm only talking about your father's true intention of renting out the house. As far as you know, when did they rent your house?"
"My impression is that they moved in half a year ago, in March or April."
"What is their relationship with your father?"
"When we meet, we just nod and chat a few words. We don't usually move around in a lively manner."
"Then what's the relationship between them?"
"The relationship is average. I have never seen the two of them have any intimate behavior."
“Do they have family living with them?”
"No, both of us are single."
"How old are they?"
"Director Liu is about thirty years old, and Teacher Wang should be about the same age as me, around twenty-six or seventeen years old."
"Where are they from?"
Yong Ming's question made Xie Liuyun feel that something was wrong, and he quickly replied: "Ming Gong, your question made me remember that they both have foreign accents and are not natives of Tonglu."
"Can you tell where their accents are from?"
"I'm not sure exactly where the accent is, but it's definitely a northern accent. After all, I've never left Tonglu, so I mostly remember the accents from other places I heard on construction sites. Like Northeastern and Northwest dialects, Cantonese, and Southern Fujian.
I can recognize the Teochew and Sichuan dialects as soon as I hear them."
Yong Ming nodded. This was not easy for a person who had never traveled far and wide.
He thought for a while and asked from a different angle: "Brother Xie, which dialect is more impressive to you? Is it because of the tone of voice when speaking, or because you can't distinguish them, and you are most impressed?"
Xie Liuyun slapped his forehead and said, "Ming Gong, there are really two local dialects that I can't tell apart in terms of accent, so I'm more impressed. One is Henan dialect and the other is Shandong dialect."
Yong Ming couldn't help but smile when he heard this. What Xie Liuyun said about Henan and Shandong, these two regions are indeed special. They are almost the same in terms of customs and customs. Even if there are differences in dialects, they are not as obvious as the differences in dialects in other regions.
The reason why he couldn't tell the difference is excusable. There should be two reasons. First, he grew up in Tonglu, Hangzhou, in a water town in the south of the Yangtze River, and was unfamiliar with northern China. Second, Officer Liu and Teacher Wang were from
In the areas bordering the two provinces or adjacent to each other, the accents are somewhat similar, so it would be difficult for him to distinguish the specific words they speak.
But in this way, Yong Ming knew their origins. These two people were by no means ordinary Education Bureau employees and school teachers.
"Whether they are from Shandong or Henan, it is certain that they are not natives of Tonglu."
"Yes, Mr. Ming."
"Brother Xie, when did that man named Zhang move into your home?"
"They moved in, and within a month, Brother Zhang moved in."
"Does he live alone?"
"No, he lives with his sister-in-law."
"Do they have any children?"
"No, this is a problem they have had for many years as a couple. The two of them have a good relationship, but they don't have children."
"You have a very harmonious relationship with this guy named Zhang. How did you get to know each other? At the beginning of the relationship, did you take the initiative or did he take the initiative?"
"Ming Gong, I am a person who doesn't want to take the initiative to talk to strangers. Although he is a tenant of my house, I didn't know him before, so we just nodded in the first few days when we met.
Our relationship really got better because one day when I came back from get off work, Brother Zhang saw me on the first floor and said that my father had gone out. It seemed something was wrong. I guess there was no cooking at home. It happened that he came from the river today. I caught two fish and they will be stewed immediately. Why not go to his house for dinner?
I was so embarrassed when I heard this! I refused repeatedly, but he kept inviting me, saying that he was a tenant and I was the landlord, so it was appropriate to treat guests to dinner.
We are all under the same roof, and we are like a family if we look up and don't see each other. Don't go out with him.
I really couldn't refuse, so I went to his house for dinner. After going back and forth like this, I became familiar with him."
"When you usually get along with him, is his wife also there?"
"No, my sister-in-law is hard-working and enthusiastic. Every time I go to his house to sit around, my sister-in-law is either going out to buy groceries, or after preparing the food, she goes out to chat with neighbors. She likes children, and when she has nothing to do
Just teasing the neighbor's doll in the alley to relieve my boredom."
When Yong Ming heard this, he smiled inadvertently.
