Chapter 86
Blockhead.
This nickname is all Jian Yao and the others got. No matter what questions they asked, Xu Huqiang could not remember anything more, nor did he know anything more about this ‘Blockhead’, not his real name or where he lived. He only hazily remembered that Blockhead was very tall. He could not recall his face.
It had already been two decades, and all the people involved in the case that year had either died or scattered. Although Blockhead was one of the little brothers who had hung around with the gang for a few days, naturally, the ordinary man on the street would have no idea about his past involvement.
It seemed as if the trail had ended.
However, everyone knew that they were so close to the truth.
Bo Jinyan’s second objective in travelling to Tong City was to visit a family who had lost their son over 10 years ago.
To be honest, the family’s financial situation was pretty good. They lived in a little community in the city centre. When the door opened, Jian Yao and the others were met with the wan and haggard visages of two elderly people. They had already received the news that their son’s body had been found, and they were unable to view it with their own eyes.
Their son was the first youth to be killed by the butterfly killer.
They were already numbed by their years of waiting, but when they found out that their son had been cruelly killed by someone over 10 years ago, all those years of waiting were truly meaningless, and they could not help bursting into tears.
