Chapter 207 (Volume 3: Tianyin Elegy) True or False, Worry and Trust
He waved his hand heavily: "Don't worry about Wang Tao, let's talk about you first, who are you? Who are you? And, what is the relationship between you and Long Xuejun?"
This is what Chen Chen really cares about. Only by first figuring out who he is, can he be trusted if he can believe what he says.
A person who doesn't even know his identity obviously cannot easily believe his words.
The old beggar coughed twice and looked at the heavy body with a strange look: "Is this important?"
His heavy eyes never left the old beggar's face. He even tried to see clearly the old beggar's original appearance, but there was no trace of the original on the face that was completely disfigured by the fire.
"What do you say? You can tell me who you are now, or you don't want to say anything, I will take you back, and we will find out your identity by ourselves." Chen Chen was already determined, he had to figure out the true identity of the old beggar.
The old beggar sighed: "Okay, wait a moment, I'll get something."
The old beggar walked towards the room inside, the room similar to a study, and then gently closed the door.
Chenchen did not follow him in. He was curious about what the old beggar was going to get. He also had a vague expectation in his heart, because the determination of the identity of the old beggar would play a very important role in the investigation of his father's case.
After waiting for almost two minutes, I felt something was wrong. I walked to the door and pushed open it. There was no trace of an old beggar in the room. I saw that the window was wide open, and he must have jumped out of the window and ran away.
This is the third floor, and this old beggar is really not afraid of death.
When I came to the window, I could no longer see the old beggar.
Chen Chen was very depressed, why did he neglect it?
Now it's time for the person to disappear, and it's hard to find him again.
Seeing Chen Shen come out, Wang Tao greeted him and asked, "How is it, why did he tell you?"
He looked at Wang Tao with a deep look, then shook his head: "He ran away."
"Running? How could it be? I've been staying at the door all the time. Also, aren't you with him? How could he run? Under your nose, it's the third floor again, why can he run away?" Obviously, Wang Tao didn't believe the heavy words, so he rushed into the room.
But soon he came out again, and he looked at Chen Chen: "Did he run after jumping into the window?"
Nodded heavily, Wang Tao said, "Why don't you chase after me?"
He smiled bitterly, but he wanted to chase after him, but the place was full of alleys, and it was almost abandoned. There were scavengers like old beggars living in sporadic places, and even the electricity they used was secretly connected.
However, after Wang Tao said that, he knew that they would definitely not be able to catch up with them.
"Chenchen, is it easy for me to find him? You just let him run away. Also, did you ask me about my matter? Why did he say that to me?"
Chenchen simply returned to the shabby room and sat down, lit a cigarette, thinking about what happened tonight.
He ignored Wang Tao, and Wang Tao finally finished venting and shut up.
He closed his eyes heavily, looking like an old monk entering into meditation.
He was thinking about the scenes of the old beggar appearing.
Finally, he opened his eyes and looked at Wang Tao. Wang Tao was a little anxious when he saw it: "What are you doing when you look at me like this?"
He shook his head heavily: "It's nothing, let's go."
“Where to go?”
"Of course I'm going home."
The two left the shanty town. They came by walking. Because they had drunk some alcohol before, they didn't drive. They stopped a car on the side of the road, and then said to Wang Tao: "I'll leave first, you can take a taxi by yourself."
"Just leave like that? What about mine, and what happened to you and Xiaolu..."
Before he could finish speaking, he said in a deep voice: "Let's talk about these later."
He got into the car and then the car left.
Wang Tao stood there and sighed, he didn't expect things to turn out like this.
In the car, a smile appeared on his heavy face. Yes, he smiled because he had already made a discovery, a very important discovery.
When he returned home, he took out the photos of the old beggar that Xu Jing had contacted him several times and looked carefully. Finally, he made sure that his idea was correct. The two old beggars were not the same person! Because he had noticed just now that the old beggar in the photo had a scab on the back of the right hand, which was the size of an elm seed, but the old beggar's right hand had no, but the burn scar.
The photos taken by Xu Jing included several times in the photos that Long Xuejun gave alms to the old beggar. The old beggar reached out to pick it up. Each time the photo was clearly photographed on the scab on the back of the old beggar's right hand. He felt deeply that he should thank Xu Jing, very professional!
It can be seen from this that the old beggar who came into contact with Long Xuejun was not the old beggar who came into contact with him.
The old beggar first appeared in the library and begged from him. Not only did he give him money, he also had half a pack of cigarettes and a lighter. At that time, the old beggar said nothing.
The second time was at the entrance of his own community, the old beggar wanted to break into the community, but was stopped by the security guard. Later, he took him to a midnight snack stall to eat, and the old beggar left the note and left.
After that, the old beggar never showed up again until tonight.
Looking back on three contacts with the old beggar, I was sure that only the old beggar I saw at the entrance of the library for the first time had scabs on the back of the hand, and there was a disgusting and unpleasant smell on his body. The second time I met outside his community outside his community and the one I saw again tonight, although it looked very similar to that one, they did not smell on their bodies. The most important thing was that there were no scabs on the back of their hands.
I smiled bitterly and lost to the details. If I had discovered these details earlier, I might not have taken such a detour.
If the old beggar he came into contact with later was fake, then he had only one purpose, that is, to leave the note that made him be careful of Wang Tao!
This is too incredible. I deliberately pretend to be another person just to convey a message.
But if this is true, why did he continue to play such an identity after achieving his goal and let Wang Tao find it? This is a bit unreasonable.
He walked to the balcony deeply, and a night wind blew, and his mind couldn't help but wake up a lot.
His face changed, he strode back to the room and grabbed his cell phone.
But before he could dial, he put down his phone, picked up his coat, and went downstairs.
Long Xuejun did not expect that Chen Chen would come to him at night. He stood at the door of the mental hospital, lit a cigarette and paced back and forth. Chen Chen said on the phone that he would arrive soon, but he didn't say anything specific, but Long Xuejun knew that something must have happened, otherwise he would not have been so anxious with a deep personality.
Seeing the heavy car stopping, he walked over and opened the door and sat in the passenger seat.
"When was the last time you saw an old beggar?" Chenchen asked directly.
Although Long Xuejun was a little suspicious, he still said, "What's wrong a week ago?"
"How often will he find you?"
"Four or five days, I think about it, well, five days, almost five days apart, he will find a way to let me see him once and then give me some clues."
Long Xuejun is a smart man. After he finished speaking, he widened his eyes: "Has something happened to him?"
However, after Long Xuejun said that, he shook his head again: "It's impossible. Today I received the message and he asked me to meet at Huansha Bridge tomorrow."
He narrowed his eyes: "Maybe you won't see him even if you go tomorrow."
At this moment, Chen Chen really figured out all the problems.
Long Xuejun was a little anxious: "You said, what's wrong?"
He sighed heavily, and said all the things that happened tonight and his guesses. After hearing this, Long Xuejun was silent for a moment and said, "You mean, he has been targeted by the other party's people, and then the other party may have arrested him or given him..."
Although Long Xuejun did not finish speaking, Chenchen nodded. He naturally knew what Long Xuejun did not say meant.
"Then they made a fake one to contact us, mislead us, and let our investigation go in the direction they need?" Long Xuejun asked again.
My deep heart was also bitter: "I'm afraid this is really the case."
Long Xuejun was playing with a cell phone in his hand, as if he wanted to calm himself down.
"Who is he? Do you really don't know at all?"
Long Xuejun turned his head and looked at Chen Chen: "He has never said it before, but I personally feel that he should have a lot to do with you, so I said before that he is also likely to be your father. Maybe your father was not dead, but was seriously injured because of the fire."
He stared at Long Xuejun with a deep eyes. He still didn't believe what Long Xuejun said. It was not that he didn't believe that the old beggar might be his father, but that the old beggar had never mentioned who he was to Long Xuejun. Otherwise, why would Long Xuejun trust him so much?
But at this moment, Chenchen had no intention of engaging in this issue. What he was more worried about was the safety of the real old beggar!
If your inference is correct, then the old beggar should have fallen into the hands of the other party now. There are only two possibilities for the old beggar in such a situation. They either succumb to the other party and do as required by the other party, or they will fight with the other party to the end, but there will definitely be no good results.
"If it weren't for Wang Tao, the fake guy would definitely meet me tomorrow. I will be able to catch him by then, which is a pity!" Long Xuejun said with some regret.
Chen Chen said, "I'm afraid you may not be able to tell the truth or false by then. And if Wang Tao hadn't made a fuss, I wouldn't have discovered this secret. Take the scab on his back as an example. Have you really noticed it?"
Long Xuejun was stunned for a moment: "I really didn't pay attention to this, but I was familiar with the smell on his body. I smelled it more than once. When I smelled it for the first time, I almost couldn't help vomiting."
He nodded heavily: "Maybe."
"But I think he should come tomorrow." Long Xuejun suddenly said again.
Deep and puzzled.
Long Xuejun said, "You are still too anxious. Think about it, although he ran away from your nose, in his opinion, you may not be able to find the details of it, because they know very well that the person who really contacted the real old beggar the most was me, not you. Two of the three times you contacted were fake, that is, they believe you did not find that there would be two old beggars. This is one, and the second is that it is normal for him to run like this, but don't you have two guesses about his identity? Either my missing father or your dead father. In this case, they concluded that you would not really hurt the old beggar. The old beggar ran away just to hide his identity. This makes sense at least if we didn't find that there was fake."
He was stunned. What Long Xuejun said really makes some sense, but he was confused if he cared about it.
However, then Long Xuejun's words made Chen Chen feel a little worried.
Long Xuejun said: "Look at what kind of surprises he will bring to us tomorrow. He will definitely bring us some clues like an old beggar. Of course, the purpose of these clues must be misleading us, but I think it can be more or less useful. What I worry most now is the safety of the real beggar. Captain Shen, you have to rely on you to find someone to save people."
"You mean, don't touch him for now?"
Long Xuejun nodded: "Yes, if you touch him, wouldn't it be equivalent to telling the other party that we already know this secret? Only by putting this fake first can we buy time to find the real. As for the fake, you can rest assured and I can handle it."
"Long Xuejun, how many secrets do you have to hide from me?" Chenchen handed him a cigarette.
Long Xuejun took the cigarette and sniffed it: "Why did you ask this? Isn't there any secret in your heart?"
He choked on the heavy side.
Long Xuejun said seriously: "You just need to remember that we are friends and are on the same front. We have a common goal, and I am also helping you in earnest and cooperating with your investigation of your father's case."
After saying that, Long Xuejun was about to get off the car, but he paused again: "You don't show up tomorrow. They can play this to know that our information is asymmetry, especially in the matter of the old beggar. They already know that I have concealed you, so they will come as promised when they meet tomorrow. Don't worry, I know how to deal with it. There is another thing, the mice here are having fun these two nights!"
After saying that, he got out of the car and closed the door.
He reacted heavily and rolled down the car window: "Are you saying someone wants to attack Liao Yuancheng?"
