Chapter 114: I've seen her

"Lu Yuzhu?!"

The person who appeared in front of him was Lu Yuzhu, who should have died in the explosion at the archive!

How is that possible?

He and Xie Qingcheng experienced the explosion first hand, the entire archive building was leveled by a deep detonator, how could Lu Yuzhu's flesh and blood get out of there in one piece?

In a daze, the woman has seized the opportunity to escape, she ran very fast, the red skirt fluttering in the wilderness, but also like a ghost back to the soul, and soon scurried into the thorns and bushes, disappeared.

He Yu was about to go after him, when he saw Lu Yuzhu's falling object...

It wasn't a pistol, and it wasn't any kind of murder weapon.

It was actually a thick kraft paper bag!

He Yu stood still for a while, then cautiously picked up the thick cowhide bag, and on his way back, he met Xie Qingcheng, who had come out in his clothes.

Xie Qingcheng : "What's wrong? I heard a commotion outside."

He Yu didn't know how to explain it all to him for a moment; if he hadn't seen it with his own eyes, he wouldn't have believed that Lu Yuzhu was still alive, and that he had followed them to Ching Li County, and then watched them from the window of a farmer's house late at night.

He took the kraft paper bag and said to Xie Qingcheng, whose brow was furrowed, "Go inside and talk."

Inside the guest room.

Xie Qingcheng was also shocked after hearing the whole story, he coughed gently and then asked, "Are you sure you're not mistaken?"

"I'm not mistaken. That's Lu Yuzhu's face. But ......"

"But what."

"But at that time in the archive, I fought with her, I didn't feel her strength was that great at that time, and her reaction speed when she was breaking up a fight with someone wasn't that fast either." He Yu said, "You didn't see the way she ran away later, like a ghostly shadow, disappearing in a flash."

Xie Qingcheng is silent.

He Yu: "It's not my hallucination."

Xie Qingcheng didn't comment, he took a sip of hot water, his face was a little blurred by the steam, after a while he said, "Do you remember what Lu Yuzhu said to us at the archive?"

"What?"

Xie Qingcheng : "She said she has a daughter."

He Yu was stunned for a moment, then enlightened, "This is Qingli County, which means--"

"That person just now, it could be her daughter who hasn't been recognized by her mother or daughter again."

He Yu : "That makes sense, the little girl's speed and strength are not the same as her mother's, and if she has been working on the farm in Qingli County since she was a child, running around, then her physical fitness must also be much better than Lu Yuzhu's."

"Let's go back tomorrow and ask in detail." Xie Qingcheng said, "Renheng Middle School didn't turn up any clues, but Lu Yuzhu's ex-husband and her daughter are also subjects of investigation that can't be ignored."

He Yu nodded.

The two men's eyes fell back to the kraft bag.

He Yu: "She was pulling something out of her back and I thought it was a pistol, but what she ended up pulling out was a bag like this."

Xie Qingcheng : "If she has a pistol, what you should do is to run away and disarm?"

"...... wants you to care."

Xie Qingcheng stared at him.

He Yu took Xie Qingcheng's half-drunk glass of water and drank two mouthfuls of it to cover it up, then said, "This kraft paper bag is always something she sneakily left behind, so let's open it first."

The paper bag was carefully unwrapped by the two men.

With the not-so-adequate light from the top of the guest room, the two men came together to see what had fallen out of it.

As a result, they froze in unison.

That's a thick pile of ......

--Jenkins Middle School personnel file information!

"How can ...... this happen?" He Yu muttered.

Xie Qingcheng also did not expect, this mysterious woman in the arms, originally to be quietly stuffed into their windows, is actually this they have been looking for, but how can not find the file.

The situation was suddenly even more treacherous.

He Yu : "Xie Qingcheng ...... Do you think this information is true?"

"Let's see it first."

Outside the window, the night moon was like frost, Xie Qingcheng and He Yu looked at the pile of files together, the files were thick, the paper was worn out, and after turning over half of them, their gazes stopped on one of the pages.

He Yu: "Zhao Xue."

Xie Qingcheng also saw it.

Zhuang Zhiqiang's adopted daughter, Zhao Xue, is featured on .......

Zhao Xue is a bit like Xie Xue in that she is a very sweet and well-behaved little girl. The form gives detailed information about Zhao Xue, from her home address to the awards she has won at school.

At the bottom of the form, in the "Tracking" column, the person in charge wrote a simple "Going to Shanghai to learn the art."

But it doesn't mention exactly which art student training program it went to.

Xie Qingcheng and He Yu went through the form with great efficiency and found that there were more than a dozen people like Zhao Xue who were "going to Shanghai to learn the art", all of them girls and very pretty.

And the one thing these girls have in common is that the parent's next of kin status is almost always "dead".

"That is, if these files are true. Then the girls they chose to study in Huzhou are either those who no longer have any contact with their families like Zhao Xue, or orphans. And all of them are good-looking girls..." He Yu summarized as he looked at them. "That person outside just now, if she is indeed Lu Yuzhu's daughter, why did she give this to us?"

After a pause, "And why does she have these old files in her possession ......"

Neither of them had much of a head for guessing on the mystery woman issue for the moment.

The information quickly turned to the bottom.

At the bottom is information about the faculty and staff.

He Yu and Xie Qingcheng saw a message from the principal of Yanlord Middle School when it was first built.

Although the information written by the school administration is simple and not as detailed as the student information, the most basic name, place of origin, and photo are still available.

In the normal imagination, the person who did this kind of killing and maiming of schoolgirls would be a male with a lewd description.

However, neither of them expected that what was in front of them was actually a picture of a woman.

That woman had high cheekbones, thin lips, a beautiful face, and a lonely, cold temperament, and even just a two-inch photo showed her very independent and strong character.

Xie Qingcheng frowned at her.

He Yu : "Do you think ......"

Xie Qingcheng raised his eyes and met He Yu's eyes, "Something looks familiar."

"Me too." He Yu said, "I think I've seen her before. But I can't remember where."

The name of the principal is Jin Xiuhe, and the file is from about twenty years ago, when her age column said she was twenty-eight years old, and her usual place of residence was Huzhou.

"Wait."

He Yu saw the name and suddenly remembered something.

"I think I know this guy."

He said taking out his cell phone, typing in a few keywords and pressing confirm.

A few bits and pieces of information and photos appeared on his search results, and He Yu took ten seconds to scan through them before handing his cell phone to Xie Qingcheng.

Xie Qingcheng A look, "Jin Xiuhe" actually has an entry.

Jin Xiuhe, female, was the president of the Women's Federation of Huzhou City and was honored as one of the city's top ten outstanding female entrepreneurs in 1994 ......

None of this matters.

The important thing is that in the column for her marital status, over her husband's name, there are three words written in shocking detail:

Huang Zhilong.

He Yu completely remembers--

"Jin Xiuhe is Huang Zhilong's wife!"

If Renheng Middle School is such a school with deep water behind it, then those things that swindled female students to go to Huzhou to learn the art back then probably had nothing to do with her ......

He mused.

Learning the Art ......

Huang Zhilong's wife ......

Art Students ......

He Yu realized something: "If this is really the case, could the disappearance of those students back then be related to Huang Zhilong's acting company?"

He followed this line of thought, the more he thought, the clearer he became, because of the appearance of this pile of information, all the previous broken evidence as if by a chain to a chain, as if a wide sea appeared in front of him, the truth as if a dragon out of the abyss, from the sea to leap up.

He Yu suddenly raised his head and said to Xie Qingcheng, "I have an idea."

"You tell me."

"There are a few clear clues that we have in our hands now." He Yu and Xie Qingcheng cited one by one, "First, when Renheng Middle School was not closed, Wang Jiankang once came here to recruit some students, and at that time, he told them that they would go to Huzhou to study art and take the art exam, and later on, they might be able to become big stars on TV and embark on the road of acting. Among them was Zhao Xue, Zhuang Zhiqiang's adopted daughter."

He Yu said, nodded Zhao Xue's dossier.

"This information indicates that her last destination was 'to Shanghai to learn the art', but it is not known exactly where in Huzhou she went. Zhuang Zhiqiang had contacted her when she first arrived in Huzhou, but soon Zhao Xue was nowhere to be found, and the old man never saw her again until his death. It can be said that Zhao Xue has completely disappeared."

He said, taking a pen from the nightstand and marking "missing" on Zhao Xue's file.

"I don't think she's the only one missing. Because from this information, it can be seen that anyone who was chosen to 'go to Shanghai to learn the art' were orphans with very simple family ties, or even no relatives at all."

He Yu spread out the information one by one in front of Xie Qingcheng like a deck of cards.

"Tomorrow we can go to the village council and investigate, but I think the results of the investigation will be just what I expect now, that these people went to Huzhou, embarked on their journey to the dream of stardom with great anticipation, and then none of them ever came back. I think the status of these few unattended populations is now either missing or dead."

"Second." He Yu wrote the word Wang Jiankang with a pen, and also used the search engine again to confirm it.

"According to Baidu, Wang Jiankang joined HU fifteen years ago and was in charge of the university's external relations. But after the Cheng Kang case, Wang Jiankang was killed. At the same time, the university's archives were bombed by Lu Yuzhu, and the materials inside disappeared."

Xie Qingcheng : "Do you suspect that the art training base these people went to at the time was the HU Media College?"

"It's a little bit worse." He Yu says, "From what I know of HU, they've never set up any high school classes in the past few years. But--"

He turned the tables, "Officially there are none, but the rubbers are all over the place."

"For example, some private training institutions will play the gimmick of 'HU professors teaching in person', and then some with even harder connections, they will directly rent HU stores as enrollment training centers, so that in the eyes of outsiders, these institutions look very formal, as if they really have a direct connection with HU, but in fact there is no relationship at all."

He Yu continued, "I prefer that Wang Jiankang recruited those students into such a private training institution under the name of Huda, so now the question remains - where did the students he recruited actually go? "

He pushed the last piece of information file to Xie Qingcheng and tapped the surface of the paper with his fingers.

"Jin Xiuhe."

"Jin Xiuhe is the principal of Yanlord Secondary School. It should not be a coincidence that Wang Jiankang would come to this school to enroll students, and it is likely that he and the school's senior management have a mutually beneficial relationship. Yanlord Middle School is like a long-term supply chain, and as you know, teachers tend to know their students very well, especially in boarding schools. They have plenty of time to observe which students are the best to go after, even if they are missing or dead, and no one will pursue a truth for them."

"Since Wang Jiankang's behavior was tacitly approved by Jin Xiuhe, and even aided and abetted by him, it means that what Wang Jiankang did cannot be dissociated from Jin Xiuhe's interests. They are likely a community of interest."

Speaking of which, even He Yu is a bit cold-toothed.

As you can imagine, girls like Zhao Xue, who have gone through a lot of hard work and ten years of hard study, long for the day when they can become a phoenix and fly away from the mold.

Carrying old, tattered schoolbags, even sewn from old clothes, they walk to school with their precious dreams--

However, they did not realize that this so-called "charity school" was not the same as the "Hope Primary School" they once attended, and that what was waiting for them was the devil's wide-open mouth, which was going to devour their flesh and bones into their stomachs.

"I think there's a good chance that all these missing people, in the end, are connected to Huang Zhilong's movie company. And Huang Zhilong's company, in turn, might be related to Cheng Kang's mental illness."

He Yu says: "Do you remember at Cheng Kang Hospital, Jiang Lanpei said that the Liang brothers were horny and humiliated her? I think we can now assume that Wang Jiankang, while working at HU, met Jin Xiuhe through his position, and the two of them hit it off, picking out the best of the students, and using the pretext of art training to keep them under their control."

"These students were subjected to drug trials similar to RN13, the kind ...... " He Yu said, glancing at Xie Qingcheng.

Xie Qingcheng's handsome face looks tough under the light, and it is hard to imagine that this man was once tortured by the disease to the point where he was covered in blood and scars. Having to rely on illegal drug trials to stay alive.

"That kind of trial is not something that the average person can endure." He Yu said softly.

After a while, only then lowered his eyes and said, "They couldn't stand it, so they went crazy, crazy women were sent to Cheng Kang Psychiatric Hospital, becoming the patients that their collaborators, the Liang Brothers, used to make power and money deals. In that hospital, they were sentenced to a long life imprisonment, until they squeezed the last bit of value out of them."

"I even believe that all these people who were transferred to Cheng Kang Ward have changed their names and it is very difficult to investigate when so much time has passed. Perhaps it was precisely because of these traces hidden in HU's archives that they had to be destroyed so quickly after the Cheng Kang case."

After listening to all this, Xie Qingcheng thought carefully about everything He Yu said, and finally singled out one question: "If things are really related to Huang Zhilong, then who caused Hu Yi's death?"

"It's possible that Huang Zhilong did it himself," He Yu said. He Yu said.

"It's unlikely, the investment in the trial crew was staggering, and with the incident where Hu Yi died in the props locker, the entire filming of the movie was called off, which was a huge loss for Huang Zhilong. I don't think it was him."

"Then there's also the possibility that Huang Zhilong got into trouble with someone when he was doing his dirty work - and suffered retaliation." He Yu said, "But whichever possibility it is, I think the RN13 that Xie Xue took is now getting some traction. I think checking toward Huang Zhilong's movie and TV company will give us an answer."

"Check Jin Xiuhe?"

He Yu shook his head, "You lack understanding of our circle. Jin Xiuhe, this person, no matter what she did back then, no matter if we can find evidence or not, right now she won't be able to get a trial."

Xie Qingcheng raised his eyebrows, a very aggressive expression. He seemed to be very offended by this kind of power hungry behavior that disregarded the law.

"Why, how far back is she?"

He Yu smiled lightly, "Extraordinarily large backstage."

"Who?"

"Yan Wang." He Yu said, "Jin Xiuhe is already dead. If we want to check, we can only check Huang Zhilong himself. But before we do that, we have to confirm one thing--"

He raised the remaining files of yellowed information in his hand.

"Tomorrow we have to go to Lu Yuzhu's ex-husband's house to take a look and figure out if the girl who showed up tonight is Lu Yuzhu's daughter or not, and if she is, then I'd love to know how these things, why they ended up in her hands."
