Yan Ruyu couldn't dig up people's ancestral graves, but told Wu Cuo a conjecture about Wei Shao.

"I investigated Cao Yaohua, who was the owner of the tomb.

Cao Yaohua was the chairman of Dongbang Real Estate during his lifetime.”

"Dongbang Real Estate? It sounds familiar."

Yan Ruyu nodded, "It's indeed quite a long time. When we were young, Dongbang Real Estate was an extraordinary enterprise. Several old business districts in Beijing were built by Dongbang Real Estate.

However, in recent years, the old buildings have been demolished and renovated."

"As soon as you said that, I remembered it.

It’s strange that such a large company seemed to disappear in an instant.”

Yan Ruyu nodded, "Yes, I asked Jinzi to check the tax information of that year, but unfortunately there were too few electronic archived information in that era and nothing was found.

I asked Lao Xu about what happened back then, and Lao Xu just remembered vaguely, as if it was because of Cao Yaohua's sudden death and the leaderless group, Dongbang was quickly emptied by several core managers and soon went bankrupt.

This is just a rumor and another statement. It is said that Cao Yaohua offended someone who cannot be offended..."

"There are people he can't offend?" Wu Cuo could not imagine.

"Since ancient times, the Shang Dynasty did not fight with officials, he committed a big taboo and was killed by others."

"What do you mean... Cao Yaohua was killed by an official?"

"I don't mean anything, it's just a rumor and there's no evidence.

However, I found out that Cao Yaohua had a son named Cao Wei.

Since Cao Yaohua's death, his wife and son have disappeared. In short, if his son is still alive, he should be about the same age as that young man."

Wu Cuo shrugged and said, "Young Master Wei is Cao Wei, that is, Cao Yaohua's son, it's not difficult to guess." He was waiting for Yan Ruyu, and he believed that Yan Ruyu's investigation would never be so superficial.

"Cao Yaohua's son is not enough to arouse my interest. What I am interested in is why he wants to help us, especially in that incident 20 years ago.

He helped us once in the Seize Hutong and got us the tape.

Immediately afterwards, during the meeting at the Beijiao Cemetery, he gave another reminder that the person who spoke in the tape was his father Cao Yaohua.

This prompt is actually very obvious. Cao Yaohua's death has some connection with the death of your and my parents."

Wu Cuo couldn't wait to speak, "I have thought about this, may it be your and my parents who investigated Cao Yaohua's death. They were killed because they were involved in the conflict between officials and businessmen because they investigated the case, or they knew some amazing secrets."

"This is a reasonable speculation, but time does not match. According to the death time on Cao Yaohua's tombstone, he died after you and my parents, and it was nearly two months apart."

"Can it be the time of Cao Yaohua's death be faked?" Wu Cuo asked.

"No." Yan Ruyu answered very confidently.

"How do you know?"

"If someone carved a fake tombstone for him to cover up his death, it should at least be a more rich tombstone that matches his identity.

Look at his monument now, it can't be said to be shabby, at least it is a normal and simple one. It should be the tombstone erected by Wei Shao's mother for her deceased husband. I think they must have lost their family by then."

"That's complicated..." Wu Cuo frowned and said, "I can't think of any relationship between our parents and Cao Yaohua."

"I can't think of it either, so I have to change my mind."

"Switch a different idea?"

"Yes, back to the initial question, why did Mr. Wei help us? Don't you think he is a bit like us?"

Wu Cuo looked at his hands and thought about Wei Shao's hands that could use stones to hit the target dozens of meters away.

“Where does it look like it?”

"We don't have a father, and we don't know why our father died, don't we?"

Wu Cuo thought, "You mean... he is also investigating the incident back then?"

"Yes! But he learned some things earlier than us, for example, our fathers once had some kind of intersection."

"But, he doesn't need to tell us!"

As soon as Wu Cuo said this, he immediately received praise from Yan Ruyu.

"I have to say, Lao Wu, you have been so smart lately that you suddenly feel enlightened!"

"Ah?" Wu Cuo didn't react.

"You asked a key question!" Yan Ruyu said excitedly: "Why did he help us? There is no effort in the world for no reason. If he helps us, it means that he wants to get something from us.

There must be something that we have, or we can get, but he cannot get it.

We are like three people who play puzzle games. He has frequently found the puzzle below in our hands.

Although I don’t know what the puzzle is, as long as I know this weakness, I can design and draw him out!”

"Wait!" Wu Cuo said panic: "Don't do anything wrong. Let's discuss it first. Is it okay? His skills, killing you is like playing. I'm really afraid."

Yan Ruyu patted Wu Cuo on the shoulder, "Don't worry, you are the most critical part of the plan. As for me, there is no danger."

"Wait!" Wu Cuo was even more shocked, and his hand holding the steering wheel shook three times, "What plan? Why don't I know you have plans? I'll ask you to discuss it first, which means discussing it with me when making a plan, not a temporary notice when it is implemented!"

"The plan is not yet mature, I promise that I will discuss with you before the execution, is it OK?" Yan Ruyu waved indifferently, "It's better to solve the case of picking people at hand first. Don't you think we can practice with the murderer of this case?"

Wu Cuo curled his lips: "Oh, I suddenly feel my tendons hurt. Really, Lao Yan, if I don't lie to you, who will do it to practice?"

"Tsk, reduce the ambition of others and destroy your own prestige," Yan Ruyu gave Wu a blank look, "I'm afraid I have to use a stupid method to investigate this case."

"What stupid way?"

"Set up surveillance videos. Since the two victims are bank security guards and convenience store clerks, let's adjust surveillance, focusing on who has appeared in banks and convenience stores a month before the two were victimized."

Wu Cuo took a deep breath, "Thousands of hours of surveillance! Tsk tsk tsk, Lao Yan, you know, I'm most annoying to adjust surveillance, I can see people to death."

"There are shortcuts, but there is no guarantee that there will be rewards."

“What shortcut?”

"Talking to that prostitute, she was the only witness, and maybe she would have some discoveries that the victims did not."
