Sha Bing Zhi did not know that Lin Yan and the rest were watching his every move from the window outside. He held the picture of the desolation in his hands, and stared at the face in the picture, as if he was lost in thought.
"Boss, I told you that there's something wrong with him!" Hu Li stood behind Lin Yan, beaming with pride and joy. He had initially suspected that Sharpei, the boss, and Li Bin did not believe him at all, thinking that it would be impossible for the seven elders to be of any help. Now that they had personally seen that there was a problem with the other party, he had to show it off.
"Sharpei is crying!" Li Bin patted Hu Li's arm and indicated for him to take a look. How could a person who planned the whole thing cry silently when he saw this old picture?
Lin Yan frowned. If it was really as Hu Li had said, Sha Bingzhi was the mastermind behind this matter, then his current cry was baffling. After all, this matter had never left his control.
He had the picture on his cell phone, and when he took it out to magnify the mole on one of the men's neck, the jumbled thoughts in his head were instantly sorted out. "Do you think this person looks like he was when he was young?" Lin Yan asked.
Following the direction that Lin Yan was pointing in, Hu Li and Li Bin saw a young man in the photo. He looked exactly like Sha Bingzhi, but he had aged too fast in the past thirty years. The man looked like he was in his early twenties, and now he looked like he was in his seventies or eighties.
What had happened in the past thirty years that had allowed Sharpei to skip the life of a middle-aged man and live the life of an old man?
"Boss, Sha Bingzhi's hands …" Hu Li pointed to the enlarged blurry hand in the photo. Beneath it, his hand was tightly holding onto the hand of a woman beside him.
"Sha Bingzhi is not crying because of himself, but because of the woman in the photo. He is not the mastermind of the past. Judging from his appearance, he is most likely the victim of the past!" Lin Yan said to Hu Li, "Let's go in to take a look, you should first investigate that woman's identity!"
"Li Bin, let's go in!"
Lin Yan pushed open the door, the tears in the corner of Sha Bingzhi's eyes had not dried yet, "Boss Lin!" He quickly put down the photo and sat down on his seat.
Just call me Lin Yan! I heard from Hu Li that they call you Old Sha in the cookhouse too, so I'll follow them! " Lin Yan poured a cup of water for him and sat in front of him, "Old Sha, actually, the reason I asked you to come over to chat wasn't because you committed some crime, so don't be so restrained. You should know about Squad Leader Wu slandering me on the field just now, I just want to hear what kind of person he is!"
Lin Yan's first goal was to let Sharpei let go of his guard. Even though he was not his target, he must have something to tell him since he had participated in the event.
"Class Rep Wu is a good person. Mister Lin …" No, Lin Yan, he treats us very well, he only wants to say that Company Leader Xu's daughter has been wronged, and he has already apologized! " Once he heard Lin Yan's intention, he let down his guard and spoke a lot more easily.
Lin Yan nodded, "Rest assured, I know what I am doing. Old Sha, let's talk about you. I heard Old Zhou say that you have been staying in the army camp for more than 40 years!"
"Yes, forty-two years!" Sharpei looked away from the photo. He had been in the military camp for forty-two years!
"Did you come to be a soldier when you were thirty?" Lin Yan asked.
Seeing that Lin Yan did not react, he thought that he did not see it and heaved a sigh of relief. He then put his hand under his clothes and wiped it, "That's right, at the time of the recruitment, I was here!"
He did not know that his actions had all been captured by Lin Yan. Did Sha Bingzhi really think he was an idiot that did not investigate such a ridiculous thing when he entered the army camp at the age of thirty?
who had been sitting silently on the sofa got up, "Boss, the person in this photo has confirmed that someone is dead!" He was holding the old picture of the clearing.
Sha Bing Zhi had wanted to ask Lin Yan where the photo came from a long time ago, but he did not have the chance to. This time, when Li Bin opened his mouth, he could not help but ask, "Lin Yan, can I ask you a question?"
"Ask away!" Lin Yan and Li Bin looked at each other. Their initial countermeasures were to let Li Bin inadvertently bring up the contents related to the photo when they were being polite to each other.
"Where did you get this picture?"
"Oh, one of my friends gave it to me. That friend of mine is already dead. Before she died, she gave me the photo of her father. She hoped that I would be able to find the person above and find out about the events of the past. She wanted to restore a true father to her! "
"Who is her father?" Sharpei asked as he stared at the photo.
"Wu Huaming!"
"Ah?" Little Wu! " Sha Bingzhi took a step back in fear, "Didn't Little Wu die three years ago?"
Lin Yan nodded, he knew that now was not the time to force the question, "Wu Huaming did not get the forgiveness of my friend even after she died, and my friend wanted to understand the reason behind his father's actions, but she does not have the chance now!"
As if he had just recalled something, Lin Yan looked to be in shock, "Old Sha, from your tone, it seems like you know Wu Huaming!"
"Boss, look at him. He looks really similar to Old Sha. Maybe he's Old Sha's father!" No, brother should be the one who is more like it! " Li Bin unwittingly said this to lead to their goal.
"Hmph, the person in the photo is me!" Sharpei's eyes were filled with pain as he took the photo with both hands. "I'll tell you everything. Can you give me this photo?"
"This photo is just a backup. If you want it, take it!" Lin Yan said as he and Li Bin looked at each other. Just that, Old Sha, please forgive me for the gossip. If the person in the photo is really you, then that doesn't match your age at all! "
A wry smile appeared in his eyes as he replied, "Yes, if I had not been so greedy, I would not have become such a ghost now!"
Back then, I received a direct assessment from the military, so when I saw a generous reward, I was moved to register. Back then, I received a direct assessment from the military, so when I saw a generous reward, I was moved to register.
"The mission isn't that hard. We just have to dig every day and write down the things we dig up and the feelings we get every day to the people above! The reward was very easy to get, and slowly, Wu Hueming and co. realized that something was wrong. "
