Chapter 619 Doubts from more than a decade ago

"Captain Qin, I'm really sorry. If I had warned you earlier, the little police officer wouldn't have sprained his ankle."

Fang Dali, who was leading the way, turned around and said apologetically.

Captain Qin Fen replied politely, "The boy was just careless. Officer Fang, please don't pay too much attention. Besides, his injuries are not serious. He can only rest for a few days."

"Having said that, I still feel guilty."

Police Officer Fang Dali of Yongxi Town is quite loyal, and there are not many people who would be upset over such a trivial matter.

Upon seeing this, Captain Qin Fen Qin comforted him for a few more words before changing the topic, "These houses have been abandoned for many years, haven't they?"

Fang Dali heard the words and started the introduction mode, "Well, when I came here for the first time, I was shocked. From the outside, this village looks like a quiet mountain village with great scenery, but once you enter , Oh, good guy, almost half of the house is abandoned, and there are many more, like this house, the skeleton is almost burned out! "

As Fang Dali spoke, he pointed to an old-fashioned residential building next to him.

Several people looked around, my dear, there is almost only a foundation left!

It was probably the worst burned house in the neighborhood, if not one.

"They are all burned down houses, and there is a large area in front of them. Oh, what a sin."

After saying this, Fang Dali shook his head and continued to lead the way.

Han Xu and Lao Zhang looked at each other and were convinced that Putaoshe Village was the small mountain village where the accident happened.

So many burned houses seemed to be telling something silently!

In fact, there are some differences between what you hear and what you see.

When Han Xu saw these traces left over more than ten years ago, he couldn't help but think of the villagers who lived here.

It seems as if there was a butcher knife hanging on their heads!

And the man holding the knife was just an ordinary barefoot doctor.

"Officer Fang, have you heard about what happened in this village before?"

Captain Qin Fen Qin, who had been following Fang Dali, couldn't help but ask.

Fang Dali suddenly paused when he heard this, his brows instantly twisted into the Chinese character "Sichuan", he turned around and asked doubtfully, "Captain Qin, are you here just for that case?"

When Qin Fen and others heard this, they were a little confused. Han Xu was clever and immediately broke the embarrassing situation, "Officer Fang, why did you say that?"

The muscles on Fang Dali's face tightened unconsciously, "Well, no outsiders have come to this village for many years. Isn't it because of the previous case? Is it because of other things?"

Qin Fen and the others came in a hurry and only notified the Yongxi Town Police Station to seek assistance. They did not disclose the true purpose of their visit.

Seeing this, Qin Fen shrugged his shoulders, "It's been more than ten years since that case, and the main criminal is still serving his sentence in prison. We didn't come here for that case."

When Fang Dali heard this, he immediately breathed a sigh of relief, but then asked doubtfully, "Captain Qin, you are here... you are looking for Chu Tianhe's family. Could it be that something happened to this child in the city?"

In fact, Fang Dali had been holding back all the way and it was not convenient to ask, so he just took this opportunity to ask.

Captain Qin Fenqin chuckled and did not answer the question directly. Instead, he brought the topic back to more than ten years ago, "Officer Fang, do you still have any impression of the case more than ten years ago?"

When Fang Dali heard Qin Fen bring the topic back, he immediately understood that the purpose of their trip was not convenient to reveal. He rubbed the back of his head awkwardly and said smoothly, "You mean the case of Chu Manfu? Alas, at that time it was It was so sensational. At that time, not long after I started working, I was told by my colleagues from the older generation. It was amazing!”

Qin Fen reminded Fang Dali as he walked and said, "Isn't that right? I just joined the work. Oh, what a sin. Seventy-six villagers died in a small village in six years! There are two more There was a fire, but fortunately there were no further casualties.”

Fang Dali nodded and continued to lead the way, "When I first heard about it, I couldn't believe it, but that's the truth. Do you know how many people this small village had at that time?"

Qin Fen really didn't know much about such detailed data, so he couldn't help but ask, "How much?"

"Taishe Village has been around for a long time. It is said that it can be traced back to the Tang and Song Dynasties. When the population was at its highest, there seemed to be more than 600 households and nearly two to three thousand people. But then there were not so many. I remember that there were more than ten years ago. Today, there are probably more than 200 households left, or at least nearly a thousand people.

But most of them have gone out to work, and the actual permanent population is only less than half, that is, about 300 people!

Chu Manfu was so cruel when he poisoned nearly one-third of the village's permanent population in one go! "

"Isn't it said that there are half of the permanent population?" There are some discrepancies in the figures in Qin Fen's memory.

"That's an exaggeration, but one-third is a lot. Unfortunately, there was no evidence at the beginning. We could only conclude that two villagers were poisoned by Chu Manfu." Fang Dali seemed to have a good understanding of the inside story of the case. , talk freely.

Qin Fen nodded, "Oh, there is nothing we can do about that."

"Who says it's not the case? It's very rare to be able to convict Chu Manfu back then! That guy is not an ordinary person!"

As Fang Dali said this, he couldn't help wiping away his cold sweat!

In such a cold weather, he was shocked to death by an old case, which shows the importance of that case in Fang Dali's heart.

"Officer Fang, have you seen Chu Manfu?!" Han Xu asked as if he had caught something.

Hearing this, Fang Dali glanced at the young man behind him and nodded slightly, "Well, to tell you the truth, I watched the interrogation of Chu Manfu. Alas, that guy looked crazy, but let me see, Eighty percent of it is just an act!

And the motive for the murder, tsk tsk, how should I put it, the more I think about it, the weirder it becomes! "

Qin Fen frowned when he heard what Fang Dali said, "What's so strange about the motive of the murder? Didn't it mean that Chu Manfu killed the villagers in the same village to earn some funeral expenses?"

"That's indeed what Chu Manfu said at the beginning, but I always felt it was a bit strange, but I couldn't explain why." Fang Dali thought about it for a moment, but still couldn't grasp the key point.

Han Xu behind him suddenly said, "Officer Fang, do you think Chu Manfu is too smart?"

After Fang Dali heard this, he suddenly stopped and turned around in surprise...
