Chapter 15 Heart Blindness (11)

Qin Chuan nodded slightly, and quickly arranged the task: "Old Cao, Zhou Lu's disappearance case is applying for a merger. Xuanzi, find out the address of Mrs. Wang and send it to me. Xiao Jiang and Yiran, come with me."

According to the address sent by Zhang Xuan, Qin Chuan parked the car in front of a garden-style villa, and Li Yiran read to everyone the detailed information about Mrs. Wang that Cao Tianyuan had just found out in the passenger seat.

"Wang Yanan used to run the largest textile factory in Xinchuan City when he was young, but he retired due to blindness when he was old. He sold all the properties under his name and deposited them in the bank. He retired in this villa. According to the police at the police station who handled the case, the old man had a strange temperament. He has a bad temper, and has rarely had contact with anyone in recent years except for his missing goddaughter Zhou Lu."

After Qin Chuan parked the car, the three got out of the car together, and Jiang Wenchi looked at the villa in front of him.The small garden in the front yard is exquisite and has a romantic French style, highlighting the professionalism and taste of the designer.It's a pity that the flowers in the deep part of the garden have dried up, and only those near the roadside are still alive.

Jiang Wenchi looked at her and asked casually: "Does this Mrs. Wang have no wife or children?"

Li Yiran nodded: "Yes, Wang Yanan lost her husband at the age of 35 and did not remarry. She has a son named Chen Jiajun, who is 28 years old, unmarried, and works as a clerical worker in a small company close to home."

Jiang Wenchi nodded, didn't ask any more questions, and walked towards the courtyard with Qin Chuan and Li Yiran.

Compared with the exterior of the villa, the interior decoration is a bit more plain, and the furniture is simple and old, which looks old.Although it has been cleaned, there is still obvious dust in the corners, and it is obvious that the cleaning is sloppy.

Wang Yanan was wearing a dark suit, sitting on the sofa, his eyes were dull, his expression was a little haggard, and the lines at the corners of his mouth were deep, giving people a feeling of being stubborn and difficult to get close to.

Her son Chen Jiajun was busy pouring tea with a humble and polite attitude. Jiang Wenchi glanced at the teacup in front of Wang Yanan opposite.

Chen Jiajun: "Thank you for taking a trip. My mother and my god-sister have a very good relationship. She has been missing for so long, and she went to your bureau in a panic. Don't blame her."

Wang Yanan was displeased: "Why should you blame me? I'm a taxpayer! Don't they take money to do things for us taxpayers? I also blame them for coming so many days late!"

Chen Jiajun hurriedly looked at Qin Chuan, smiled apologetically, and comforted his mother: "Mom, don't worry, just talk to Captain Qin carefully, he is here to help you solve the problem."

As Chen Jiajun spoke, he gently stroked Wang Yanan's back, and Wang Yanan's attitude gradually calmed down.

Jiang Wenchi carefully observed the actions of the mother and son.

Qin Chuan asked, "Aunt Wang, when did you find out that Zhou Lu was missing?"

Wang Yanan said with certainty: "34 days ago! She used to come to my house every day to take care of the garden for me, then bask in the sun with me, read books and sing songs to me."

Chen Jiajun answered: "Yes, my mother has a strong personality. Even though she is blind, she won't let me hire a nanny for her. When I go to work, there is no one at home. Fortunately, my sister is always with my mother."

Qin Chuan: "When did Zhou Lu begin to marry your family?"

Wang Yanan raised her face, her dull eyes seemed to want to look out of the window, as if she was caught in a good memory, and her original mean and old voice was also covered with a trace of warmth: "Three years ago, Xiaolu just graduated from university, came to work in our villa area..."

With her description, Jiang Wenchi's mind gradually appeared the picture at that time.

At that time, Wang Yanan was sitting alone in the weed-covered yard basking in the sun, with a gloomy expression.Zhou Lu, who just graduated, is young, pretty and full of energy.The halo reflected by the sun on her body seemed to be her own, clean and warm.Wearing a gardener uniform, she walked over with a smile on her face. Looking at the deserted courtyard, her smile turned into regret. At this moment, seeing Wang Yanan sitting alone in the courtyard, Zhou Lu walked towards her with a smile.

Zhou Lu: "Auntie, would you like to plant some flowers in the garden?"

Wang Yanan raised her head displeased when she heard Zhou Lu's words.

Wang Yanan: "Who will plant flowers for?"

It was only then that Zhou Lu noticed that Wang Yanan's eyes were invisible. A trace of heartache flashed in her clear eyes, and she squatted gently at Wang Yanan's feet and held Wang Yanan's hand.

Zhou Lu: "Auntie, there is more than one way to experience the world. The fragrance of flowers, the singing of birds, and delicious fruits and vegetables, we still have many ways to perceive the beauty of the world. I am a newly recruited garden designer in this villa area. Let me Help you plant some flowers in the garden."

Wang Yanan recalled the encounter with Zhou Lu, and her voice became softer: "I don't know why I didn't reject her that day, maybe it was because of her gentleness and patience, or maybe it was because her voice was as beautiful as a lark."

The state of the old man at this time is very different from the usual tense appearance, without the harshness and majesty of the superior, more like an ordinary grandma next door, telling you how gentle she has a little daughter.The crowd listened patiently, and no one interrupted her.

While listening, Jiang Wenchi watched Chen Jiajun's reaction from time to time.

Wang Yanan said: "Later, Xiaolu began to come to my place to take care of the garden every day. She is really good at planting flowers, and soon I can smell the fragrance of flowers in the garden every day. She also planted some tomatoes and strawberries. And Little Cucumber, when the sun is good, I will sit in the garden full of flowers, eat fruit and listen to her reading or singing to me."

Jiang Wenchi seemed to see that warm scene through Wang Yanan's cloudy eyes.

The sun was shining in the French-style garden. Wang Yanan sat in the yard with a thin blanket on his legs, surrounded by flowers. Zhou Lu was holding a book and read to Wang Yanan.

"Later, Xiaolu told me that her parents had an accident when she was working part-time at a construction site when she was a freshman, and both of them died. She worked all by herself to finish college. I felt sorry for her lonely and helpless, so I decided to take her in as a goddaughter."

When Wang Yanan was speaking, Jiang Wenchi focused on observing the expressions of Wang Yanan and Chen Jiajun.

Seeing Wang Yanan stop, Qin Chuan asked in a timely manner, "So, Zhou Lu has no relatives?"

Wang Yanan was dissatisfied: "I am her relative!"

Qin Chuan didn't care about her attitude, and continued to ask: "Then, does she have any close friends around her? Did she behave abnormally before she disappeared?"

But Wang Yanan became more and more dissatisfied: "Xiaolu is not a playful child, and her friends only have a few college classmates. Didn't you police contact them before? Aren't you from the serious crime team? Why are you like ordinary policemen? Just ask." Are these questions?"

Chen Jiajun quickly apologized: "I'm sorry, my mother has answered these questions many times when she reported the crime before, and my younger sister has never been able to find it. She is inevitably anxious. Can't you go back and check the previous records?"

Qin Chuan had a good attitude, nodded slightly and said: "Okay, we understand the family's feelings. We also hope to get more information and find Zhou Lu as soon as possible."

Wang Yanan curled her lips in disdain: "Then you should send someone to look for it quickly. If you can find someone by sitting at my house drinking tea, do I still need to look for you?"
