The village chief looked at us and frowned. He then said," How would outsiders like us know about this couple?"”
Master Ye and I had the same feeling that something was wrong with the village chief from the beginning. I looked at him and asked seriously," Now that Du Juan is dead, if you don't tell the truth, it might bring more disasters.”
The village chief shook his head and sighed helplessly. The expression on his face made it seem as if he had made things difficult for him.
"This, as the saying goes, an upright official can't even settle family matters. How can I care about this? I've already told you what you want to know. If you want me, this old man, to tell you the reason, then you're really making things difficult for me.”
Master Ye and I also stared at each other. We couldn't do anything to the village chief. If this person was unreasonable, there was really nothing we could do.
Ji Qianfan looked at the village chief and said politely," Thank you for the trouble. We'll ask Zhang Dashan. You have other matters to attend to, so you can go ahead." If we need anything, we will look for you.”
The village chief sized up Ji Qianfan. The originally nervous expression on his face had relaxed a lot. He nodded and said," Alright, I'll leave first."”
"Hey, why did you let him go just like that? We haven't gotten anything out of him yet!”
Ji Qianfan was calm in the face of my roar. He looked at me and said seriously," Even if I detain him here and let you ask him for ten days to half a month, I'm afraid you won't be able to get anything out of him."”
Tell me, why didn't I realize that Ji Qianfan wasn't just stupid, he also liked to talk back.
"Alright, alright. You're amazing. I can't beat you in an argument.”
Master Ye looked at me and Ji Qianfan. He was already having a headache. He said in a slightly pleading tone," I beg you two to stop flirting, okay? Look at the time now. You two are really big-hearted."”
I rolled my eyes at Ji Qianfan and whispered," Who wants to flirt with him?"”
Ji Qianfan looked at me helplessly. Of course, this lady is a wild horse. How can he control it? Even if he has good looks, he shouldn't be so willful.
When Du Juan's incident happened, we called the police, but the weather was not good. It started to rain the next day, and there was no signal in the mountains at all. I heard from the villagers that the only road had collapsed. Now that the car could not enter, it would be troublesome for people to go out.
Su Mei had been coming over every night for the past few days, and Zhang Dashan was already on the verge of a mental breakdown. Even Ji Qianfan couldn't do anything to Su Mei. The entire courtyard had been covered with many talismans, but no one knew if they were effective.
All of us gathered in the main room. Rumors were already spreading outside. Everyone believed that Zhang Dashan had something to do with Du Juan's death. Even I thought that Zhang Dashan's reaction was hard to explain with common sense.
"Zhang Dashan, tell me the truth. Did you do anything to Du Juan?”Master Ye had asked Zhang Dashan this question countless times.
Zhang Dashan seemed a little anxious. He said emotionally," How many times have I told you it wasn't me? It wasn't me!" Why don't you believe me?”
"It's not that we don't believe you, but your actions are too suspicious.”I leaned against the pillar at the door and looked at the puddle in the courtyard.
The rain poured down from the jade hairpin and fell into the puddle, stirring up droplets of water.
Zhang Dashan slammed the table and stood up. His eyes were wide open, and he looked as if he wanted to rush up and hit me." You're just trying to force me to confess. Let me tell you, I didn't kill him. You can ask me anything, but I won't tell you a single word."”
Zhang Dashan's expression was like," I know I won't tell you, but you're asking for a beating." I gave Ye San a helpless look.
Master Ye lowered his head and said," I'm not a police officer. I can't interfere in this matter. I'm here to subdue that female ghost for you. The truth will come out sooner or later anyway." Don't you agree, Xiao Bai?"
I nodded and said," Of course. I heard that the person who came this time is a famous criminal police officer, Lin Lei.”
In the misty rain that shrouded Huai Village, there were two figures who were struggling to move forward in the heavy rain. They were Lin Lei and Zhang Yi, who were in charge of the Du Juan case.
"Master, it's raining so heavily. Why don't we wait in the car for the rain to stop before leaving? You're in such a sorry state.”
Lin Lei, who was addressed as Master, turned around and looked at Zhang Yi, who was about 30 meters away from him. He said loudly," You brat, don't dawdle there like a girl. Hurry up and enter the village." The rain won't stop anytime soon."
After saying that, Lin Lei tidied up his raincoat, shook off the mud on his rain boots, and set off quickly.
Zhang Yi looked quite tall, but his skinny body made it difficult for him to carry these things and travel in the mountains.
The car could have barely driven in, but there was a landslide on the road, blocking the way. Coupled with the steep mountain, there was no other way. In order to rush, they could only carry all the tools and walk forward.
In the middle of the night, the rain had lessened a lot. I was in a daze when I heard the dog barking outside. I turned over and something blocked me.
I pushed it with my hand, but it felt a little cold. No matter how hard I pushed, it wouldn't budge.
I was hugged tightly by a hug, and I realized that Ji Qianfan was lying beside me. His voice sounded above my head." What's wrong? You had a nightmare and can't sleep?"
I shook my head and said," No, listen to the dogs outside. They keep barking. This village is really not peaceful."”
Ji Qianfan smiled and patted my shoulder." You've been too tired these days. Go to sleep."”Then, she covered my ears with her hands.
However, it didn't take long for Master Ye to knock on the door. I sat up and the lights in the room lit up. A black shadow escaped from in front of me. Ji Qianfan had already arrived at the door.
He looked at Master Ye coldly. Master Ye was wearing a coat and standing in front of Ji Qianfan with sleepy eyes. He said," You're here so quickly."”
"What are you doing?"
Master Ye yawned at Ji Qianfan. Ji Qianfan immediately covered his nose with his hand and turned his head to the side.
Master Ye was a little embarrassed." I forgot to use my toothbrush. Please don't mind me." Zhang Dashan came to me just now and told me that the police are already here. They're waiting for us in the main room.”
I had already put on my clothes and heard the conversation between Ji Qianfan and Master Ye.
I came out of the house and looked at Master Ye." In that case, let's go take a look and connect the situation."”
When we arrived at the living room, Lin Lei and Zhang Yi had already changed out of their wet clothes. The only evidence that they had come in the rain was their wet hair.
"I heard from the village chief that you have already buried the body?”Lin Lei sat on the chair with a serious look in his eyes. He did not look too optimistic.
The village chief stopped rolling his cigarette and looked up at Lin Lei." Yes." It has been buried for a few days, and the corpse is no longer what it looks like. We have to bury it now…"
Lin Lei slammed the table and said in a loud voice," Do you know that every corpse can actually speak? We can dig out a lot of useful information from the corpses. If you do this, it will delay the progress of the case and the investigation.”
Looking at Lin Lei's exasperated expression, I walked up to him and handed him a handwritten report. He glanced at it, raised his head, and asked me," What is this?”
"Autopsy report."
Lin Lei looked surprised. He flipped through it carefully and looked at me."Did you write all this?”
I sat down, looked at him, and said proudly," Of course.”
"Are you a forensic doctor?"
I shook my head and said," No, I'm just a medical student.”
Lin Lei's eyes were filled with admiration for me. He smiled and said," Thank you so much for this. This report is very useful to us.”
My cheeks were a little red and I felt a little uncomfortable. I lowered my head and said," But because we didn't have professional tools, there were many places that we couldn't check carefully.”
"Don't worry, this is enough. By the way, when Zhang Yi and I arrived, we saw a lot of talisman papers pasted here. What's going on?”
Master Ye told Lin Lei everything that had happened. Lin Lei listened to him but before he could say anything, Zhang Yi stood up and tore off one of the talismans that Master Ye had stuck on the door frame. He held it in his hand and looked at it, saying," Who are you trying to fool with this mess?"”
Master Ye walked over and gave Zhang Yi a slap on the head without any explanation. He snatched the talisman from Zhang Yi's hand and stuck it on the door." What do you know? These things are used to prevent ghosts. Don't touch them. If anything happens, I won't care."”
Zhang Yi looked at Ye San's serious expression and rubbed his head. He returned to Lin Lei's side, feeling wronged. Lin Lei gave Zhang Yi a look, hinting him not to talk nonsense.
