âOne evening eighteen years ago, your husband took your daughter out to buy something, but they never came back, right?â Tan Rou said calmly.
Aunt June, however, was very agitated. She ignored the pain in her body and immediately sat up and grabbed Tan Ronâs shoulder. âDo you know who killed my husband and daughter back then? Hurry up and tell me!â
The more anxious Aunt June was, the more Tan Rou didnât want to talk about it. She gently removed Aunt Juneâs hand and dusted it off. âDonât be agitated. Letâs talk slowly.â
How could Aunt June not be agitated? This matter had been hidden in her heart for eighteen years. In the first few years, she had been running around trying to find the real murderer. However, she was alone. She had no background or money. No one would help her.
Later, she gave up and left that sad city to come to the Capital to be a nanny. Her first job was to take care of Xue Lin, a very cute and willful little girl. Xue Lin reminded her of her own daughter, so she took care of Xue Lin like her own.
However, she did not expect the Lin family to be so cold-blooded, nor did she expect the child she had taken care of so carefully to treat her like that. The reason why she was willing to take the blame for Xue Lin was that she didnât want Xue Lin to go to jail. On the other hand, she couldnât find a reason to live anymore.
Her husband was dead, her daughter was dead, and the child she loved did not care about her at all. She felt that her life was a failure.
Tan Rou showed a few photos to Aunt June. The photos were not clear enough, and she could vaguely tell that they were her dead husband and daughter. âAlthough there were no surveillance cameras in that place for eighteen years, itâs not completely without traces. At that time, an old man was taking photos of the intersection there and happened to take this scene. However, the owner of the car also discovered him and gave him a large sum of money to not tell him about it. He was afraid and greedy, so he went straight home.â
The more Aunt June looked at the photos, the colder her heart became. These photos were not only photos of the car accident eighteen years ago, but also other photos. The car that killed her husband and daughter appeared in the Lin familyâs garage.
Although surveillance wasnât widespread 18 years ago, the Lin family was still one of the wealthiest families in the Capital. The Lin family must have arranged for such advanced things as surveillance long ago. n/o/vel/b//in dot c//om
âYou must be lying to me!â Aunt Juan didnât believe it. She shook her hands and said, âYou photoshopped these photos, right?â
Tan Rou took the photos back. âSince you think these photos are fake, you donât have to believe them.â
Aunt Juan was in great pain. She had seen that car in the Lin familyâs garage. The front of the car was already dented, and it had never been driven out before. The license plate matched.
âSo itwas the Lin family who killed my husband and child!â Aunt Juan covered her face and cried. âI raised the child for my enemy for so many years, and now I have to take the blame for her. Iâm too stupid!â
Tan Rou stood up. âIâve already given you the photo. If you want it, Iâve already told you. If you want a witness, I can help you find one too. Donât think that Iâm after you. I just feel that youâre too pitiful and want to help you.â
Tan Rou only found out about the car accident when she was investigating what evidence Xue Lin had on Aunt June. She was a little curious about who killed Aunt Juneâs husband and child. If she could find out, maybe Aunt June would change her mind.
However, they found out that the person who killed Aunt Juneâs husband and child was none other than Xue Linâs father. It had to be said that Father Lin was quite magnanimous. He wasnât afraid at all after killing two people. He even hid the car at home. Tan Rou was impressed.
Aunt June cried for a while. Then, she said, âThankyou. Iâll help you achieve the ending you want for me.â
âThatâs not why Iâm helping you. I just feel that you were wronged.â Tan Rou said.
âNo matter what, I have to thank you.â Aunt June apologized. âI poured gasoline on you and tried to burn you. This is my fault. I donât hope you can forgive me, but I still have to apologize to you. Iâm sorry!â
Tan Rou said, âThereâs no need. If youâre sorry, you should go and tell the police and the judge.â
Aunt June took Father Lin to court. Fortunately, this case was still in the retroactive period. Otherwise, Father Lin would have escaped punishment.
