As he worked, Nia Guang continued to investigate more details. He spent two days camping in Hu Tao’s neighborhood and found a small dog with brown spots. It was the puppy that appeared in the video that the photographer sent to the police.

After Ma Guang confirmed the identity of the puppy’s owner, he found the puppy’s cell phone number. Through the cell phone number, he found the young man’s social account.

This young man had just graduated from university. His social media account was filled with videos related to digital products, but he had never released a pet video.

This was different from what the filmmaker had described in the anonymous email. The filmmaker had said in the email that he would often bring the puppy out to play and then take a video to post online. That was why he had taken a video of Hu Tao entering the crime scene.

Ma Guang fell into deep thought. On a rest day afternoon, he went straight to the young man’s house.

The young man did not expect the police to find him again. He looked a little flustered. As a veteran police officer who had dealt with criminals for many years, Ma Guang could naturally tell that there was something wrong with the young man’s expression. He sat on the sofa with the young man and began to chat. He slowly raised key questions, and the young man’s expression became more and more nervous.

“Hu Tao is not the real murderer, right? He asked you to help cover up the truth, right?” Ma Guang asked in a very serious tone.

The young man bit his lip and looked up at Ma Guang. “Officer, isn’t the case over? Why are you so conflicted?”

“Because I’m a police officer. It’s my duty to pursue the truth.” Ma Guang looked at the young man with a threatening gaze. “If you’re unwilling to tell the truth in front of me, go to the police station.”

The young man’s expression was very conflicted and painful. After a long time, he leaned against the sofa dejectedly and said weakly, “Alright, I’ll tell you. That night, Mr. Hu did come to me for help.”

The young man lived in the same district as Hu Tao. In high school, he was Hu Tao’s student. At that time, the young man’s parents were working overseas.

Hu Tao had given him a lot of help. Seeing that he was always alone at home, he often called him to his house for dinner.

“Mr. Hu t s relationship with his daughter is indeed very bad, but that’s because Hu Min hates Mr. Hu unilaterally. Mr. Hu treats Hu Min very well and has never lost her temper with her.”

The young man told a simple story.

On the stage, the lights dimmed, and then another scene was illuminated by a warm yellow light.

It was a snack street near the school. There were many students in school uniforms buying food in front of the stall.

The young people said that as their form teacher, Mr. Hu often told them not to eat random snacks on the streets. For example, Malatang and barbecue were quite unsanitary. If they ate it and had diarrhea, not only would their bodies feel uncomfortable, but they would also delay their studies.

It was almost time for evening self- study. Almost all the students who were buying food had entered the school. A high school student was holding a freshly made milk tea and a few skewers. He was about to walk towards the school gate when he suddenly saw Hu Tao.

Hu Tao stood in front of the stall selling Malatang and was paying the bill. After hearing the young man call him “Mr. Hu n , Hu Tao turned around like a student who had made a mistake and was caught. An awkward smile appeared on his face.

Hu Tao explained, “Hu Min wanted to eat Malatang, but it was too cold and she didn’t want to go out, so I had to buy Malatang and bring it home for my daughter.”

The young man didn’t know how to describe how he felt at that moment. He looked at Ma Guangs strong side profile and sighed. “Mr. Hu has always been like this. All his dignity is fragile and useless in front of his willful daughter.

Before he left, he even reminded me not to eat too much from the stall. It’s unhygienic. ”

After the young man finished speaking, the two of them fell silent in the room. The young man smiled faintly. “I’m sorry, Officer Ma. It’s unimportant to talk for so long.”

Then, the young man briefly summarized the reason why Hu Tao and Hu Min’s relationship was so bad.

When Hu Tao first became a teacher, he was especially busy with work. He wanted to be an advanced teacher, so he worked very hard. This caused him to have no time to accompany his wife and daughter.

One winter, Hu Tao’s wife fell on the road and was seriously injured. She called Hu Tao, but Hu Tao did not return her call even after a long time after passers-by sent her to the hospital..
