Chapter 43 Unexpected clues


There are more than 40 miles of land in the town, of which 12 or 3 miles are still mountain paths, and people from nearby villages go in and out during this time, and although there is a lot of snow on the road, it does not reach the point where it is impossible to walk.

Four people and one beast, walking for more than an hour, Gu Qiulan saw a jeep used by the public security parked at the end of the mountain road.

"You called," she asked, turning her head to think about Xu Zichen.

"Well, I can't let you walk more than forty miles to town."

In fact, the main reason why he did it was to avoid the ox cart driver who was suspected of surveillance, just because Zhao Tiejun and his wife were not easy to say by their side.

Gu Qiulan was not stupid, she could naturally understand what he really meant, and she didn't say much, and turned her head to look at Zhao Tiejun and his wife.

"Uncle and aunt, it seems that we don't have to make ox carts and freeze today."

The two of them were stunned for a moment, and then they also noticed the jeep in the distance, and they all turned their heads to look at Xu Zichen, but they appreciated his carefulness a little more.

Soon several people came to the car, and Jiang Hongguo came out of the driver's seat.

"I'm in trouble."

Xu Zichen said.

"Comrade Xu is polite."

Jiang Hongguo replied with a smile and helped put a few people's things into the trunk, while Gu Qiulan beckoned Zhao Tiejun and his wife to get into the car.

After a while, the car started, and the group rushed towards the town with some talking and laughing.

When passing by a nearby village, Gu Qiulan, who was sitting in the middle of the back seat, found through the car window that the oxcart driver was wearing a thick cotton jacket and smoking a cigarette standing on the side of the road, but there was no oxcart beside him. is even more sure that this person must have been sent by someone to keep an eye on her, otherwise in the weather of more than ten or twenty degrees below zero, who would be stupid to stand on the side of the road and blow the wind "Really conscientious."

Gu Qiulan smiled coldly in her heart and quickly withdrew her gaze.

The car drove over quickly, leaving the ox cart driver far behind, and the car came to the town at ten o'clock in the morning, Gu Qiulan asked Jiang Hongguo to go to the station first, and Xu Zichen got off the bus to buy tickets to the county for Zhao Tiejun and his wife.

After seeing them get into the car, the few drove away and went to the town's guest house first.

Since the bus from Shiniu Town to City C only runs once a day, and it still leaves at 8 o'clock in the morning, I have missed it now, and I need to stay in the town guest house for one night, and I can only go to City C tomorrow.

Xu Zichen opened two rooms and put down his things.

"Xiao Qi, let's go to dinner first, and by the way, call Comrade Shangjiang and their director."

"Hmm."

The two walked out of the guest house, and as soon as they got in the car, Xu Zichen asked Jiang Hongguo to drive to the office to pick up their director first.

He came to Shiniu Town several times to ask them to borrow a car, but he hasn't officially thanked him, this time he left, it's hard to say whether he will come back in the future, and the favor must be returned first.

Soon came to the door of the police station.

"Comrade Xu, Comrade Gu, you wait a minute, I'll go in and call the director."

Jiang Hongguo said a word, quickly opened the door and got out of the car, and before long, a middle-aged man in a public security uniform walked out of the police station, and Jiang Hongguo followed behind.

Xu Zichen and Gu Qiulan opened the door and got out of the car.

"Hello Comrade Xu."

Director Yang smiled and shook hands with Xu Zichen, his eyes paused slightly as he swept over Gu Qiulan, and his two thick black eyebrows wrinkled.

After a few words of greeting, Xu Zichen explained his intentions, Director Yang did not refuse, and several people quickly got into the car and came to the state-run hotel.

During the ordering, Director Yang's gaze would always stop on Gu Qiulan from time to time.

"Director Yang, you know me" Gu Qiulan's soul was already strong, and from the first time Director Yang looked at herself, she noticed that the other party's eyes were a little strange.

It's just that I didn't think much about it at the time, but now I see that the other party has looked at her many times, so I have a question.

As soon as she said this, Xu Zichen also looked up at Director Yang, with an inexplicable meaning flashing in his eyes.

"I don't know Comrade Gu, but I feel a little familiar, as if I've seen it before."

Xu Zichen and Gu Qiulan glanced at each other quickly, and something was jumping in each other's eyes.

"Was it more than two years ago?"

Xu Zichen asked first.

Director Yang's brows furrowed even deeper, as if he was trying to remember something.

Seeing this, Gu Qiulan stared at him a little nervously, and her intuition told her that this Director Yang would give her a surprise, and it was very likely that it was the clue that the original owner was sent to Shiwan Village two years ago.

"Like, I remember two more people following her."

Sure enough, the corners of Gu Qiulan's mouth raised, and she nodded to Xu Zichen without a trace.

"Are you sure it was more than two years ago" Xu Zichen was also a little excited, he had nowhere to find the iron shoes, he Gu Qingfeng had been looking for several months without any breakthrough clues.

At the beginning, he didn't think about finding out the person who sent Gu Qiulan to Shiwan Village, but he didn't have any information about the two of them at all, so he had no idea where to start.

Now he unexpectedly found an entry point from Director Yang, as long as he can get the information of the two, he is very confident that he will find them out, clue, this is a very important clue.

It is even possible to go directly along this line and completely find out what happened two years ago.

"Yes, that's right, more than two years ago, those two were both active soldiers like Comrade Xu, and I remember that Comrade Gu seemed to be sick and very weak at that time."

"How do you know about active soldiers" Xu Zichen frowned, he didn't expect that the two people who sent Gu Qiulan were actually soldiers, and they could mobilize soldiers to help, and the other party's background was not ordinary, which coincided with his guess.

"They are dressed in military uniforms, with epaulettes, all with the rank of second lieutenant."

"Outsiders rarely come to Shiniu Town, so I take a second look when I pass by on the street."

"The second lieutenant is at least at the level of platoon commander or deputy company commander, let them come forward in person, it seems that the person behind it should have a military background that is not weak."

Xu Zichen secretly analyzed in his heart, and then asked Director Yang if he still remembered some of the characteristics of the two, but he didn't get much, after all, it was more than two years, and he was in a hurry at the beginning.

More than an hour later, the four of them walked out of the state-run hotel, Director Yang and Jiang Honghui Police Station, and Gu Qiulan and Xu Zichen returned to the guest house.

Gu Qiulan's room.

"I remember that someone sent me food at the beginning, and since it wasn't given by my second uncle, as long as I find the person who sent the food, I should be able to know something."

Two years ago, the more she knew, the more confused Gu Qiulan felt.

I really don't understand what the people behind it are going to do, since they can let her die openly without leaving a trace, wouldn't it be more worry-free to let her live if she was really doing it "There are no clues after checking, and the address of the mailing grain and the sender are different every month, so it is very difficult to investigate." “” Gu Qiulan was speechless, many mechanisms in the whole era were not mature, especially in the census, there were many loopholes, and he didn't want to know the name and address like in later generations, and if he checked it in the system, he would soon be able to find the owner.

"You rest first, and I'll take care of this matter."

After being silent for a long time, Xu Zichen got up and said.

"It's fine."

Xu Zichen left the room, Gu Qiulan was lying on the bed, and Doudou was lying beside her boredly.

As soon as he left Gu Qiulan's room, Xu Zichen came to the front desk of the guest house and picked up the phone, called Gu Qingfeng, and told him about the new clues he had just gotten, and he started to investigate first.

The next day, the two got on a bus to City C.

S City, Gu Qingfeng, who received the call, had a headache, this clue made him very depressed, there are many ensigns in the S City Army, he is a regimental chief of staff, his rights are limited, and he has no ability to view a lot of information.

After pondering for a long time, he got up and left the office.

"Stinky boy, don't tell Lao Tzu if you have any clues."

Hearing Gu Qingfeng's words, Xu Guojun scolded angrily.

"Can you be sure that it is a soldier of our military region?"

"No, Zichen only said that it was two second lieutenants, and he didn't know where the soldiers were."

Gu Qingfeng shook his head.

"How many soldiers are there in the country, how to check the other party's clean methods and military background, I can only try to check and give me some time."

Xu Guojun also had a headache, he knew that it was two second lieutenants, and he didn't know if it was a soldier from S City, so the chance of finding it can be imagined.

"What else did that kid say, did he say anything about Xiao Qi?"

"Nope."

Thinking of Gu Qiulan, Gu Qingfeng's face was also very helpless.

"Zichen's marriage report has been approved, a few years ago he said that he would get the certificate when he was seventy-eight years old, and I estimate that Xiaoqi should come back this time."

Gu Qingfeng was stunned for a moment, and then stared at Xu Guojun angrily.

"My eldest brother is only a daughter, although their husband and wife are no longer alive, but there is still my second uncle, I can't let her marry as casually as you Xu family."

In the past, when his eldest brother Gu Qingshan was alive, he often told him that he hoped to watch Gu Qiulan put on a wedding dress and get married lively.

Now you, the boy of the Xu family, are going to take her to get the certificate quietly, what does it mean that the daughter of the Gu family can marry so casually "You calm down first, the two of them have a marriage contract, and it is a matter of time before they get married, and I don't look down on Xiao Qi because Brother Qingshan and his wife are gone, and my Xu family will do better with the procedures that should be in place, you can rest assured."

Hearing this, Gu Qingfeng's face softened.

"Does Xiao Qi agree?"

"Agreed, otherwise Zichen would not have applied for a transfer to the new base, and he also made a report to the army."

Xu Guojun nodded.

"He's letting Xiao Qi live with the army in S City" "Yes, that matter hasn't been figured out yet, the other party has a deep background, it's not safe to stay in S City, it's best to go to the new base, there is a chief over there staring, and the people behind him don't dare to deal with the military wife blatantly."

Gu Qingfeng frowned and pondered for a while, nodded secretly in his heart, and didn't say anything more.

At the train station in City C, Xu Zichen bought a ticket and took Gu Qiulan outside, Doudou was lying on Gu Qiulan's shoulder, with small dark eyes, looking around curiously.

Since leaving Shiwan Village, Doudou has hardly left Gu Qiulan, and he is also very quiet, not as active as when he was in the village.

"The bus leaves at ten o'clock in the evening, let's go to eat first, and then find a place to rest."

"Okay."

It's only four o'clock in the afternoon, and there are still a few hours left, and she doesn't want to sit in the waiting hall and wait for time to get on the bus
