Strange Tales of the Ghosts - Chapter 555

[Chapter 555 Shi Gonggong (thirteen)]

Luo Yan took the opportunity to smoke, walked to the balcony, and looked at the stars in the village. I really don’t know which families were happy and some were sad. While smoking, Luo Yan found that there were many contradictions, and now the biggest one is The contradiction is who lied? Both Qiu Laosan and Zhao Xiaomei said that they got involved with Lan Guoqiang after Lan Wei’s mother died, but Lan Dalong also said that Zhao Xiaomei and Lan Guoqiang had an affair before their second marriage. In this way, There must be someone lying, is it Lan Dalong? Or Miss Zhao? And does Third Qiu know about Lan Guoqiang and Zhao Xiaomei before their marriage? Too many problems pile up in a person’s head, which is annoying, and accidentally burns the hand with the smoke.

“Ouch…” Luo Yan let go, and the cigarette butt fell from the balcony. I wonder if it was a coincidence that the cigarette butt fell on Lan Guoqiang’s head, who had just returned from outside.

Lan Guoqiang shook off the cigarette butt on his head. He could smell the burnt stench in his hair. He looked up and saw that it was Luo Yan, and asked softly, “Miss Luo, haven’t you slept yet?”

“Mr. Lan is back. Already?” Luo Yan heard Lan Guoqiang’s voice, winked at Wang Chuan, and walked to the stairs, just in time, she still had something to ask Lan Guoqiang, anyway, there is a barrier of Wang Chuan cloth on the second floor , Lan Guoqiang can’t hear Lan Dalong’s voice, it doesn’t matter.

After going downstairs, Luo Yan saw Lan Guoqiang, who had obvious burn marks on Lan Guoqiang’s hair, accompanied by a scorched stench, which made Luo Yan a little embarrassed.

“I’m sorry, Mr. Lan, I didn’t mean to.”

“It’s okay.” Lan Guoqiang patted his hair, put the briefcase on the sofa, looked at Luo Yan, and asked anxiously, “Miss Luo, it’s been two days. Now, is there any progress?”

“Yes, there is some progress, but there are some things that need to be verified with Mr. Lan.” Luo Yan couldn’t tell Lan Guoqiang that Lan Dalong was here, but threw out his own questions very cleverly and directly. . “Mr. Lan, I want to know, when did you and Xiaomei Zhao, your current wife know each other?”

Lan Guoqiang sat on the sofa, lit a cigarette, and answered, “Didn’t I say so? After Lan Wei’s mother died.”

“Really?” Luo Yan felt that Lan Guoqiang’s expression was very unnatural.

Lan Guoqiang glanced at Luo Yan, but said nothing, Luo Yan knew that it was not that easy to get Lan Guoqiang’s mouth open, so he turned the corner and said, “But someone told me that you and Zhao Xiaomei knew each other before they got married. Now …”

“Who did you listen to?” Lan Guoqiang stood up and looked at Luo Yan nervously.

Luo Yan smiled, sat next to Lan Guoqiang, looked up at Lan Guoqiang, smiled and said, “Don’t be nervous, Mr. Lan, now we are not investigating extramarital affairs, we just want to know how your son Lan Wei died. , so you can’t let go of any details, I think you also want to know the cause of Lan Wei’s death, or you won’t invite me here.” Luo Yan’s words are reasonable, the reason for saying this is to hope that Lan Guoqiang Telling the truth with confidence also reminded Lan Guoqiang that he was just asking Lan Guoqiang to investigate Lan Wei’s death, not the police. In general, Luo Yan’s purpose was to reassure Lan Guoqiang.

Lan Guoqiang’s face collapsed, maybe his nerves collapsed even tighter, just as Luo Yan was talking, he thought of a person, naturally this person was Lan Dalong, so he sighed: “It’s Lan Dalong. What did Long tell you?”

“Mr. Lan, so what Lan Dalong said is true? You and Xiaomei Zhao knew each other a long time ago, and the two were related at the time?” Luo Yan asked repeatedly, thinking only Prove this sentence.

When Lan Guoqiang heard Luo Yan speak, he had to admit: “Yes, I was a lover with Xiaomei Zhao before we got married.”

“So…after your wife died, you will be with Xiaomei Zhao upright.”

“Well.”

“So, Mr. Lan, your wife’s death is very suspicious…” Luo Yan deliberately dragged the last word very long, she was paying attention to the change in Lan Guoqiang’s expression.

Lan Guoqiang glanced at Luo Yan, patted the table and said, “Don’t be suspicious. Let me tell you, my wife died of cancer, and I have nothing to do with her death.”

“Even if you don’t, what about Xiaomei Zhao? Is it possible for her to kill your first wife just to be with you?” Luo Yan asked reluctantly.

Lan Guoqiang shook his head: “Impossible, she can’t kill someone, my wife died in the hospital.”

“Are you so sure?”

“Of course.” Lan Guoqiang sat down, looked at Luo Yan, and said earnestly. : “Miss Luo, I hope you understand one thing. I asked you to come here in the hope that you can find out the cause of my son’s death, not let you meddle in these nostalgic affairs.” The rich man has always been the uncle, Lan Guoqiang Luo Yan has hundreds of thousands of dollars. If you don’t play the boss’s temper, I am afraid it is impossible. Luo Yan knew that Lan Guoqiang would say this, so he replied with a smile: “Mr. Lan, don’t be angry yet, I asked you this, and I asked you this question. I’m not doubting you, I just want to know who your enemy is, because after our investigation, we found that your son did not die in an accident at all.”

“Aren’t you talking nonsense?! I know my son did not die in an accident, so I asked you to find out the murderer.” Lan Guoqiang looked at Luo Yan angrily, as if Luo Yan was his enemy.

Luo Yan had a smile on her face, and her heart was already angry. She was not someone who would be submissive. After Lan Guoqiang’s strength had somewhat suppressed Luo Yan, Luo Yan conditioned reflexively to retort: “I’m sorry, Mr. Lan, if you really want to. If you know the cause of your son’s death, please cooperate a little. If you don’t cooperate, you should die and ask your own son underground! I won’t accompany you!”

“…” Lan Guoqiang looked at Luo Yan in surprise. , he has never seen a person who collects money to work so arrogantly, to show him a face, when Luo Yan walked to the entrance of the stairs, Lan Guoqiang made a compromise, rushed over to stop Luo Yan, and explained: ” Miss Luo, I’m sorry for what I said just now, I didn’t mean to do that to you, it’s just that I’m impatient, I want to know how my son died…”

“Mr. Lan, I also want you to remember one thing, no matter how famous you are in your business, you must always remember that others charge you to work for you, this is just a transaction, not just your business. The right can end the transaction, and so can the other party.” Luo Yan was furious, and she hated the most when others used money to suppress her, which is why she was about to starve to death when she wrote the novel, and she didn’t have money to eat, so she didn’t go out to do other work. s reason.

Lan Guoqiang had learned Luo Yan’s arrogant temperament and did not dare to talk nonsense any more, because looking around, no one could help him. It’s not that he never hired a private detective, but two people came here in a row, and he didn’t know what it was. The reason, I left, the truth is naturally not found, and the police think that the accident was just an accident, do not take it to heart, in order to know how his son died, Lan Guoqiang gave up a lot, Such as a used to big boss’s shelf.

“Miss Luo, don’t worry, I didn’t mean that, I was just in a hurry…” Lan Guoqiang looked at Luo Yan sincerely and apologized, he didn’t know what to do.

Luo Yan glanced at Lan Guoqiang, her anger was almost gone, so she waved her hand: “It’s alright, I’m a little tired today, I’ll check it out tomorrow.”

“Oh…then you should rest early.” Lan Guoqiang nodded. .

Luo Yan was about to go upstairs, when she suddenly remembered that she didn’t see Zhao Xiaomei, so she turned to look at Lan Guoqiang: “By the way, where is your wife?”

“Are you asking…” Lan Guoqiang thought for a while before he came back to his senses. , knowing that Luo Yan was asking about Xiaomei Zhao, so she replied in a low voice: “There is something in the factory. The shipment will be shipped tomorrow morning. She was watching in the factory and didn’t come back.”

“Oh…” She didn’t ask Lan Guoqiang what kind of business she was doing, because she didn’t think it was a business murder, and Lan Wei could only be killed by someone from the village. You will know that, you must know that the gossip ability of the women in the village is the best in the world. Every day, apart from doing work, she just keeps her mouth open. There are still things that you can keep and don’t say. A double-yolked egg, so big that someone has died, and everyone knows everything. Therefore, Lan Wei’s death can only be done by people in Taoyuan Village.

After going up the second floor and entering the barrier, Luo Yan looked at Lan Dalong and whispered, “You take a rest first, and we’ll take you back later.”

“It doesn’t matter, I’ll just go back by myself.” Lan Dalong moved the hands and feet that were bound just now.

Luo Yan shook her head, looked at Lan Dalong coldly, and replied, “No, Lan Guoqiang has come back.”

“…” Only then did Lan Dalong know that he was in Lan Guoqiang’s home, but he didn’t know This room is covered with barriers or something, and his face is blank.

Luo Yan sighed, looked at Wang Chuan, and ordered, “Wait, please take him back.”

“Yes.” Wang Chuan nodded lightly.

Kangle just heard Luo Yan talking to people downstairs, so he asked in a low voice, “Master, are Lan Guoqiang and his wife back?”

“No, he is alone, his wife is in the factory.”

“Oh …” Kangle doesn’t know why Luo Yan is unhappy, but seeing Luo Yan frowning, he knows there must be something unsatisfactory. After thinking about it, Kangle asks curiously, “Master, did you find out? What?”

“It’s fine if I find out.” Luo Yan sighed, walked out of the barrier, and sneaked to the third floor to monitor. After seeing Lan Guoqiang washing his face and lying down, Luo Yan returned to the second floor. Let Wang Chuan send Lan Dalong away.

What Luo Yan and the others never expected was that this would be the last time they saw Lan Dalong. Early the next morning, the whole village was lively. The villagers walked to Lan Dalong’s house. Qiangcai told Luo Yan and others after getting up that Lan Dalong died last night…
