Xu Zhongyi was definitely at the scene of the crime.
The time was right, and the burns on Xu Zhongyi's body when Benfield rescued him the next morning after the incident were also right.
A very important piece of the puzzle is missing:
"Did Mr. Benfield mention where did Uncle Xu's wife and son go? Mr. Field took care of Uncle Xu for half a year and did not betray Uncle Xu to the gangsters. Uncle Xu should trust him!"
Jim shook his head, "Field said very little about Xu, and he was very quiet in the basement. It was so quiet that Field went to see if Xu was still alive every day. He didn't communicate with others, except for falling asleep and writing on paper, Field also understood Hua Chinese characters, the day before Xu secretly left, he burned all the writing, and the ashes were flushed away in the toilet!"
This kind of performance sounds a lot like post-traumatic stress disorder.
Post-traumatic stress disorder, referred to as ptsd, is a mental disorder caused by a person encountering a sudden, threatening or catastrophic event. Patients usually manifest as nightmares, personality changes, insomnia and irritability, etc. Everything that is recalled by the trauma escapes.
"Can I go to Los Angeles and meet Mr. Field?"
Xia Xiaolan still wanted to know more details from Benfield himself.
Jim also found it very difficult: "Xia, after I found out that the seller of the vase was Field, he was very scared. This time I go to Los Angeles again. He is already selling houses and wants to move to another place with his family. I think you It is not suitable to see Field, it will make Field more afraid, and he will not see you."
Yu grandma can understand.
Normal people want to stay away from such complicated things. Benfield is afraid that he and his family will get into trouble, so he has said everything he already knows, and he doesn't want to contact them anymore.
"Xiaolan, forget it, don't embarrass others, I thank that Mr. Field for saving Zhongyi. It is enough for me to be able to confirm that Zhongyi is still alive from his mouth."
When I arrived in the United States, there was such a big commotion.
Grandma Yu is beating in her heart now: Xiaolan is definitely willing to continue chasing after her, even if the money spent exceeds the value of the small building in Erqi Square. Investing money and energy is still second, how to ensure personal safety?
That Benfield, who is about to move in a hurry just because the detective found out that he sold the vase.
The gang that killed Zhongyi is so powerful, Grandma Yu is not worried about her own life, she is afraid that Xia Xiaolan will be caught.
"Xiaolan, let me have a few words with you alone."
Liu Fen was baffled, what could she not listen to?
However, grandma has always been dignified, so Liu Fen followed Jim and left the room first.
Only Xia Xiaolan and Grandma Yu were left, and Grandma Yu asked her to sit down and talk:
"That's the end of this matter. Tomorrow we will leave San Francisco and go back to New York. You take me and your mother to Ithaca for two days to see what Cornell University you went to, and then I will talk to you Mom, go home!"
Xia Xiaolan's heart tightened.
As smart as she is, how could she fail to understand Grandma Yu's subtext.
It's just unbelievable. Finding the whereabouts of Xu Zhongyi's family is Grandma Yu's obsession for many years. Seeing the truth approaching step by step to uncover the mystery, Grandma Yu actually chose to give up!
"you¡ª¡ª"
"It's just what you think. You can't be too selfish. Zhongyi's family didn't find it, but you and your mother were involved. I'm very grateful that you can find this out for me. Zhongyi is still alive, this is The result I want to know the most is that I also believe that Zhongyi is still alivebut he dare not return to China to find me. How difficult is life these years? Xiaolan, let¡¯s stop here, I don¡¯t want to hurt you, and I don¡¯t want He found out and turned against him, so he must have his own reasons for hiding!"
Are the bad guys still looking for Zhongyi?
Grandma Yu thinks the possibility is very high.
With such a big commotion, the bad guys know they are looking for Zhongyi, are they also waiting for them to find Zhongyi?
The law and order in the United States is too chaotic. Grandma Yu would not be afraid if she was in China. Neither Tang Hongen nor Zhou's family would watch Xia Xiaolan's mother and daughter have an accident. In Huaguo, the safety of Xia Xiaolan's mother and daughter is guaranteed. Huaguo's guns are under control, and the crackdown has just been severed in the past two years. It is much safer than here in San Francisco!
Xia Xiaolan hesitated: "You want Uncle Xu to contact us secretly in a safer way after he knows we are looking for him?"
Avoid San Francisco, get out of San Francisco.
Do it for those gangsters, they have given up looking for Xu Zhongyi.
Wait for Liu Fen and Grandma Yu to come backIn China, Xia Xiaolan is a young female college student, those people will relax their vigilance more, they may monitor her for a period of time, and give up as time goes by.
Xia Xiaolan will stay in the United States for more than half a year. If Xu Zhongyi is really alive, there will always be time to show up.
Xia Xiaolan considered the gains and losses for a while, and admitted that Grandma Yu's approach was right.
In San Francisco, there are autopsies, police investigations, and interviews with TV stations and newspapers. All eyes are gathered here, which looks like a crater brewing hot magma.
If you are not careful, magma will spew out, causing injuries to others.
"I agree with your proposal in principle, but we are leaving. I will ask Jim to continue the investigation. Uncle Xu brought more than one vase abroad. The vase in Benfield's hand entered the market by coincidence and was tracked down by Jim. , What about the other antiques that Uncle Xu brought out? Moreover, Uncle Xu gave the vase to Field after he recovered from his injury, which proves that his condition at the time was not as bad as we thought, and he at least kept some of his belongings."
After saving a vase, will you save others?
Has he sold anything else in these years?
Xia Xiaolan felt that there would be two results in tracking down the whereabouts of the antiques brought out by Xu Zhongyi.
Find out the gang members who harmed Xu Zhongyi, or find out Xu Zhongyi himself!
Grandma Yu thought for a while before agreeing:
"You can check, but you have to stay away from that Jim, even if he is found, no one will find you!"
Xia Xiaolan nodded heavily.
"I will disconnect Jim and keep him away from San Francisco for a while, so that others can clearly see that we have run out of money in San Francisco and left disappointed!"
Xia Xiaolan did what she said.
She first lowered the standard of accommodation, moving from a good hotel to a poor hotel.
The reward for providing clues was reduced from US$10,000 to US$2,000, and he stayed in San Francisco until June 1, leaving San Francisco with regret.
"Nobody followed us."
Min Xiaoju relaxed all over.
Just after losing the homeless man, Min Xiaoju was a little nervous, as if everyone was sent by someone else to follow him.
Being able to leave that ghostly place in San Francisco, Min Xiaoju really wanted to set off firecrackers to celebrate! (Remember the site URL: www.hlnovel.com
