Chapter 1406: I Want To Dig The Grave

“Alright!”

Shen Qianshu hung up the call. She was puzzled, but she did not delay it further, calling Gu Yuanli for his signature. She also confirmed with him that he did not visit Gu Yuanan that month.

Yun An sat on the sofa in the daze. He suddenly let Shen Qianshu show him the signatures of all her brothers.

Shen Qianshu had a bad premonition. “What’s up with you?”

“Help me ask them, quick.”

“Alright. Don’t rush, don’t rush.”

Yun An’s breathing was irregular. He clutched onto his chest, poured a cup of water, and drank it all in one gulp. After a moment, Shen Qianshu sent him her brother’s signatures. Fifth Brother was a comic artist, and Sixth Brother was a celebrity, so their signatures were more artistic. Gu Xie’s signature was round and fat.

Fourth Brother’s signature was in cursive, and it was so messy that it was unclear. Yun An took his phone. He had taken a photo of the visitor’s name-list, and the three words “Gu Yuanli” were written there clearly.

He searched everywhere for Gu Yuanan’s signature from the past and compared it to each other.

Exactly identical.

The ending of the Gu word had a pause as if the person who signed it hesitated for a moment.

The Yuan word was identical.

Big Brother Gu was left-handed, and his words were written in a unique manner. It was not very beautiful, yet it had its own flavor. This was evidently Big Brother Gu’s handwriting and was worlds apart from Gu Yuanli’s handwriting. If he was not curious about who visited Big Brother Gu, he would never have found the visitor’s name-list.

This familiar handwriting.

Could it be that Gu Yuanli imitated Big Brother Gu’s handwriting?

Shen Qianshu was concerned and video called him. “Yun An, what’s wrong with you? What the heck? Don’t scare me. What’s wrong, what’s wrong? What happened?”

“Let me show you something. Help me appraise it. I think that... my head is puzzled.” They were appraisers, even though they were jewelry appraisers and not handwriting appraisers.

However, appraising was a large field.

This was considered to be within their field of knowledge.

Yun An showed her Big Brother Gu’s handwriting and the handwriting he took a picture of at the cemetery.

One was Gu Yuanan, the other was Gu Yuanli.

“Does it look like it was written by the same person?” asked Yun An. He did not discover that his own voice was trembling horribly.

“It’s the same handwriting.” Shen Qianshu knew the moment she saw it. “Wait a moment, your picture was taken today. And the date belonged to this month? Then, this was my Big Brother’s handwriting taken from a few years back?”

Shen Qianshu was puzzled. “Big Brother’s handwriting but with Second Brother’s name? Gu Yuanli said that he did not go to the cemetery this month. So who is that person?”

Yun An mumbled to himself. “Yeah, who is that person? I want to know who he is too.”

Yun An’s body was ice-cold, and his fingers shivered. Shen Qianshu asked Lady White to check the surveillance records in the cemetery. Lady White said, “This is an old system. They replace the recordings every seven days, so there is no archive. If you want to see the recordings from the start of the month, they are gone.”

“Can you search it up?”

“No, the new recordings replace the old ones automatically. Without a backup copy, they’re all gone. Like how a dead person cannot be revived. It is irreversible. I’m not capable of everything either.” Lady White laughed.

A dead person could not be revived.

That’s right, a dead person could not be revived. Was he over-thinking?

Yun An’s heart was beating terribly. He had never found out what was weird about Li Chen. Now, the more he thought about it, the weirder it seemed. Back then, when Big Brother Gu was buried hurriedly, did they really make sure that the dead person was Big Brother Gu?

What if he did not die?

If he did not die, why did he not look for him? Why did he not look for him or go home?

Was it because he got together with Li Chen?

“Qianshu, I want to dig up the grave. Will you blame me?”

“...” Shen Qianshu was speechless.
