Chapter 1465: Anomalies in the ledger
"Is the matter settled?" Lin Ran was lying on the rocking chair. The sun was just right today. It was very pleasant to lie in the villa area to bask in the sun and listen to the radio.
Hong Da walked towards Lin Ran with a smile and replied with a smile: "It has been taken care of. When I get the account book, I will take Ning Hao and his mother out of the village."
As for whether they want to leave the village, it depends on their own wishes.
Nowadays, people's rural sentiment is still very serious. Those who live in a village are somewhat related to each other, and not everyone is willing to leave their hometown.
But after this incident, Ning Hao probably couldn't stay in his hometown anymore.
It may be a little hard to accept at first, but in a few years, transportation will develop and the wave of migrant workers will rise, and everyone will get used to it.
"Then I'll trouble you to deal with this matter." Lin Ran said, covering his face with a newspaper.
Ning Hao helped him a lot, so Lin Ran more or less wanted to help him.
"Okay, I'll take care of things first. See you later!" Hongda said, standing up and walking towards the door.
The moment the door was pushed open, Guan Yun appeared at the door.
Hongda smiled and said, "What a coincidence."
"I got the stuff." Guan Yun threw a notebook directly to Hong Da without explaining much.
Hongda just glanced at the record above and was overjoyed.
He didn't have any information about the middle-aged man, but this middle-aged man actually checked his background thoroughly.
What industry he was in, how old he was, and what type of cultural relics he liked were all clearly recorded, and he also added a note at the end.
It is suspected that someone in the family is seriously ill and needs money urgently.
"What's going on?" Hongda couldn't help but froze when he saw this small line of characters.
His wife's illness has never been told to outsiders. The only ones who know the basics are him and his son. However, his son is studying abroad now, and it is impossible for his son to know anyone from Xialiu Village.
This passage was difficult for him to understand.
If this is the case, it means that the people in Xialiu Village are extraordinary.
"What's wrong?" Lin Ran stood up and became curious when he saw the subtle change in Hong Da's expression.
Hongda gave up the idea of going out.Back into the yard.
Then he handed the account book to Lin Ran and explained what he felt he couldn't understand.
"They actually guessed that someone in your family was sick and needed money?" Lin Ran glanced at the note above and thought it was amazing.
Psychology guru?
"You are asking me something." Lin Ran gave Hongda another task.
Three in the afternoon.
They came to a small town near Xialiu Village.
Standing at the door of the largest courtyard in the town, and looking inside, the house is very large, with the three floors adding up to at least [-] square meters.
The living room door is open, and the walls are covered with various calligraphy and paintings. It is obvious that the owner of the house is also a scholar.
There is a large stone table in the yard, with several stone benches standing next to it.
On the table, there is a glass of water, which has not been finished yet. It is smoking and obviously still has residual heat.
Hongda knocked on the iron door and shouted: "Is anyone home?"
There is no response in it.
Seeing that there was no one else around, they climbed over the wall and entered.
Guan Yun picked up the tea cup and touched it before saying, "There was someone here just now."
At this time, he suddenly turned his head.
Because there was a sneaky footsteps beside me.
I saw a figure leaning against the corner, slowly walking towards the door under the cover of trees.
He was immediately captured by Guan Yun and thrown in front of Lin Ran and Hong Da.
Hongda didn't understand what was going on, but Lin Ran had already started to question: "Who are you and why do you have information about other people?"
Lin Ran had always been curious about how these scammers obtained other people's information, and now he finally had the opportunity to ask.
The man was so frightened that his legs were weak, and he hurriedly said: "How did you get in! How could you do this to me? Believe it or not, I'll call the police."
"Oh." Lin Ran nodded to Guan Yun and motioned for him to let go of the man, "Go call the police."
"This..." The man was speechless for a moment. He didn't expect Lin Ran to be so decisive in doing things.
When he hesitated for a moment, Guan Yun put his hand on his shoulder: "If you don't want to call the police, answer the question quickly."
The reason why Lin Ran wanted to find him was because there was a familiar name printed on the ledger.
Liu Jingfeng.
There is a note behind the name: It is suspected to be a "ghost" from many years ago, with many murders on his body.
"What on earth do you want to know?" the owner of the house said with a sad face.
"Why do you know so much?" Lin Ran emphasized again.
After a while, the owner invited them into the room.
"Would you like tea?" the owner of the house said with a sad face. Obviously he didn't want to entertain this group of people, but being a landlord might save him some physical pain.
Of course Lin Ran refused. Who knew if this kid would give him any medicine.
Seeing that he couldn't get over it, he had to sit in front of them, lowered his head and said, "I knew this day would come, but I didn't expect it to come so soon."
"Don't tell me you're really a fortune teller." Lin Ran didn't believe a word of the half-immortal title he hung in the room.
If there were fortune tellers in the world, most people would live a peaceful life, which is unreasonable.
"I really figured it out." He sighed, "You are here because of the affairs of Xialiu Village. I can tell you the truth, but please don't hurt me."
"Only if you didn't deceive me." Lin Ran said coldly.
The owner of the house originally wanted to make up some birthday information to deceive Lin Ran, but when he saw the look in his eyes, he couldn't help but feel scared.
Can't fool him.
This thought lingered in his mind.
In the end, he chose to compromise.
"I tell you, but you can't betray me!"
He seemed determined, too.
He led everyone towards the basement, came to the basement door, and took out two keys.
This door is also specially made and requires two doors to be opened at the same time to enter.
"Come in." After opening the door, the owner of the house took the lead and walked in, making a gesture to Lin Ran and others outside to invite them in.
Entering the door is like walking into a library.
However, the only things placed in the library are handwritten documents.
Lin Ran walked to the bookshelf and took out a book.
"Population records of Nanlingtangxia Village?"
This is obviously official information, why would it appear in a civilian's home?
And he opened the records inside and recorded a person's information in extremely detail.
In this era, the household registration system has just begun to be implemented, there is still a lot of incomplete information, and there are a large number of illegal households in the world.
Only those who work in the system and production teams will report their work regularly and have detailed records on it.
Other people will not leave information.
