In Lu Xingzhi's opinion, all of these were suspicious points.
After tying the man up, Lu Xingzhi returned to the courtyard. He took a look around, picked up the hoe, and went straight to the vegetable patch in the corner. When Lu Xingzhi dug into the patch of vegetable patch with the hoe, he wasn't surprised at all.
The man buried in the vegetable patch was probably Chen Peng's father. The old man under the jujube tree had said that Chen Peng had said that his father had recently gone to the neighboring county to work. He had even said that he was surprised and had guessed that Chen Peng's father had probably gone there to earn money for Chen Peng's marriage.
In other words, based on the old man's information, Chen Peng's father had never left his hometown to work.
The older generation was basically unwilling to leave their hometown. Chen Peng's family background wasn't bad, and his workers didn't lack food. Therefore, Chen Peng's father didn't have the energy to go to another county to earn money.
When Lu Xingzhi saw the newly plowed vegetable patch, a sentence really popped into his mind. There might be a person buried in that patch of vegetable patch, and the vegetables in the patch were planted back one by one after the person was buried.
Now, Lu Xingzhi's guesses were all verified.
Lu Xingzhi didn't have much time, so he immediately contacted the people on the plane and said, "This Chen Peng is a fake. A corpse was found in the vegetable patch in the carpenter's courtyard. Contact the local police and get them to investigate."
After saying that, Lu Xingzhi went back to the house that the fake Chen Peng had just entered and searched. However, he didn't find any other blueprints. The fake Chen Peng must have destroyed them.
When the fake Chen Peng heard that Lu Xingzhi had asked someone to call the police, he immediately said in fear, "I didn't kill him. I didn't kill him. I just took some money and listened to someone's orders to guard this place."
"You pretended to be Chen Peng, and a corpse was found in the courtyard. Just because you said that you didn't kill him, you didn't kill him? You're the most suspicious! "Lu Xingzhi's words were laced with anger.
"I didn't know there was a dead person in the courtyard. If I had known, would I have dared to stay here for the past two days? I'm from the neighboring village. A few days ago, someone found me and gave me a thousand dollars to do a small favor. When I came here, there was no one in this courtyard. The person who asked me to come here said that Chen Peng and his son had gone out to work. He asked me to pretend to be Chen Peng while no one from the Chen family was here. "The man was trembling in fear.
"What else?" Lu Xingzhi asked coldly as he stood beside the man.
"He also told me to keep an eye on Cui Cheng. He said that after you entered the courtyard at the northeast corner, I was to press the switch to lock you inside the courtyard for twenty-four hours before releasing you. If you came to the village to ask for the blueprint from Carpenter Chen, I was to show you the fake one. He even told me to pour you a glass of water that was spiked with sleeping pills." The man didn't need Lu Xingzhi to ask him anything to spill the beans. "When I saw you come out of Cui Cheng, I hurriedly ran back. In the end, by the time I got back, you were already at the entrance."
That was why when Lu Xingzhi arrived, Chen Peng ran so fast that he was panting.
Therefore, his initial goal was to delay Lu Xingzhi for twenty-four hours.
