The surrounding villagers also stared at each other with wide eyes.
Liu Zhongtang's voice was not loud, but the water surface of the willow reeds was already quiet, so everyone could hear clearly.
"What do you mean?" Liu Wensan stared at Liu Zhongtang.
Liu Zhongtang smiled a little coldly, and then he said: "That little beast Liu Zhi took Zhongshu's life." "That day, he came to see me."
Liu Wensan lit another cigarette. He squinted at Liu Zhongtang for a few seconds, and then suddenly threw the cigarette in front of Liu Zhongtang.
Liu Zhongtang picked up the cigarette tremblingly and took a deep puff, with a somewhat harsh look on his face.
"Liu Zhi, this little beast, said that his family is short of money, his children have to go to school, his father-in-law has cancer, and he is too poor to afford treatment. He loves gambling and lost the surgery fee to sell the house."
"He heard that Zhongshu followed someone in the business of fishing for corpses. He earned 10,000 to 20,000 yuan per trip and saved a lot of money. He wanted to follow him in this business, but Zhongshu didn't take him."
"He just wanted to get some money from Zhongshu. He found me because he went to Zhongshu to ask for money several times, but couldn't get it anymore. He knew that I had been working as a slave a few times and was ruthless. He wanted to fight with me. I decided to kill Zhongshu and divide his money equally."
In the blink of an eye, Liu Zhongtang finished his cigarette. He glanced at Liu Wensan and said, "I'll tell you everything. Give me another cigarette."
Liu Wensan threw the cigarette and lighter directly in front of Liu Zhongtang.
Liu Zhongtang hurriedly lit another one, and he sucked half of it hard, looking very intoxicated.
At this moment, that twitching smile suddenly appeared on his face again.
This immediately reminded me of the scene last night, and I shuddered in my heart.
"Even if you are raising a mastiff, there is no reason to be in a den. Although earlier, everyone said that brothers Zhongshu and I were too tough and killed our parents, so we parted ways. There are also differences between the two. Quite a few misunderstandings.”
"But I'm not that vicious. I said I could kill brothers and get money. The few times I went in, my wife and children were all supported by Zhongshu. I have a clean family."
"At that time, I beat that bastard Liu Zhi and told him not to mess around!"
"I couldn't let it go that day, so I planned to come to the village to have a look. It turned out that Zhongshu had disappeared the night before. He was listening behind the wall and said it was caused by something sneaky."
"This is all fucking farts! Zhongshu's life is as hard as fire, no one can sneak up on him!"
"I knew it was Liu Zhi, that little bastard who had a vicious heart! He would kill his uncle as soon as he was told! He is addicted to gambling, and his brain has been damaged by gambling!"
"I persuaded him to surrender, but he refused. He also made a big funeral for Zhongshu. I don't blame him for saying he was Zhongshu. He didn't live like a human being in his life. All the money he took was wasted. What's more, It’s better to help your family.”
I felt particularly uncomfortable when I heard this, and I also felt an uncontrollable anger.
Just because you're not married, you're not living like a human being?
Just because you dress a little sloppily, you earn money without spending it, and you waste all the money you take?
It's too unconscionable to say that this will help everyone in the family.
Liu Zhongtang lit another cigarette, smoked half of it, squinted his eyes and said, "I think it's useless to persuade him, so I'll pretend to be a ghost and try to scare him into surrendering."
"It turned out that he was also arrogant. He didn't believe in ghosts at all. He called me childish and made all kinds of childish mistakes."
"Haha, he thinks I want money?" Liu Zhongtang took a sip of saliva and spat on the willow reeds.
"I want shitty money! I want him to pay for his life!"
"We killed him a few days ago, and no one put a coffin for Zhongshu. Then the police were called. What if Zhongshu was dissected and dissected to see the cause of death, and no one was alive, and then his stomach was disemboweled? That would be It’s very disrespectful to him! If you go down there, you’ll be in trouble.”
"I dug out the bodies. I planned to kill them after burying them in coffins, and then find a place for Zhongshu to bury them. I'd like to find a place for Zhongshu to bury them. I'd like to give him a rest. Revenge was taken.”
"I didn't move the little girl. I locked her in the room. The adults are guilty, but the baby is innocent. She will be a member of the Liu family when she is raised."
"I originally planned to come back to the village to pick up the baby after this matter is over, but I didn't expect you to let someone adopt him and give him such a large sum of money."
"Liu Wensan, you are indeed a very kind and righteous person."
Suddenly, Liu Zhongtang looked up at Liu Wensan, and his voice was much calmer.
"I gave you 300,000 yuan for the funeral first. I can't say enough about my kindness and righteousness."
"Another three hundred thousand yuan plus two large yellow croakers will be given to raise the child, which can be regarded as taking good care of Lao Liu. With you as his partner, Lao Liu is much better than the relatives of our brothers and nephews."
"I also thought that the money could not be used at an advantage to others, so I thought of going to take the baby away at night, and took the money with me, but I didn't want to kill the villager."
"I placed Zhongshu's body in the tree with the intention of waiting for the baby to disappear later. If you find out, if you find the body, you can blame it on the evil spirits."
"I didn't expect to fall into your hands."
Liu Zhongtang was smoking while talking, and he couldn't help but have that twitching smile on his face.
I also understood that he couldn't control himself, and he probably had a disease like epilepsy.
And the truth came out from Liu Zhongtang's mouth.
What is left in my heart is an indescribable depression.
Liu Zhi killed his uncle for money, and he also wanted to pretend to be filial to his nephew and hold a big funeral banquet!
They came to blackmail me and Liu Wensan in a grand manner!
This Liu Zhongtang is indeed ruthless and ruthless, killing a family of three at will!
He shouldn't have sanctioned this.
Kill for life.
If he goes to the police, Liu Zhi's family will definitely not escape the law.
But if he took the lives of Liu Zhi's family, he would have to pay for it!
If we hadn't caught him, maybe he could have escaped.
A cool breeze blew through the willow reeds, making me chill and shiver.
Suddenly, a piercing siren was heard in my ears.
Someone in the crowd raised his hand and stammered: "I...I just called the police..."
Liu Wensan rowed the boat and brought Liu Zhongtang back to the shore.
Liu Zhongtang suddenly became much more relaxed.
"Then who, your name is Luo Shiliu, who works as a slave to the dead and eats the dead?" Suddenly, Liu Zhongtang said something to me.
I responded and nodded.
Liu Zhongtang suddenly said: "If you can help me with something, it's not just helping me. It should also be done by Zhongshu."
I hesitated for a moment and glanced at Liu Wensan.
It turned out that Liu Wensan raised his head and walked to the front to smoke.
This is obviously because he doesn't want to take care of it...or, in other words, does he tacitly allow me to take care of it?
Mainly to help Lao Liu, I actually want to help, Lao Liu died so painfully and pitifully, I even punched him in the head yesterday...
Several other villagers clearly gave way.
I nodded and walked to Liu Zhongtang.
Liu Zhongtang whispered a few words in my ear, which made me open my eyes wide and my pupils tightened...
Then he raised his head and walked forward with a smile.
His face twitched twice more, but the chilling feeling disappeared...
I followed along and walked to the entrance of the village.
At this moment, the police car just stopped, and a dozen police officers formed a small team and were walking inside.
There were two women from the village chattering.
The village chief walked ahead and handed Liu Zhongtang into the hands of the police.
What follows is the corresponding police transcript.
This is quite a coincidence.
The person responsible for taking my notes was a pretty and attractive policewoman.
She was also surprised and said, "Luo Shiliu, is it you again?" I scratched my head in embarrassment.
"It's rare that you were there when the two murder cases were solved."
I felt even more embarrassed.
It was almost 12 noon when the transcript of the incident was recorded, plus the questioning of other villagers and Liu Wensan.
Fortunately, Liu Zhongtang was very cooperative. We didn’t need to talk about certain things, but he just shouted at the top of his neck that he would take care of them all. Otherwise, Liu Wensan and I might have to follow.
As for Lao Liu's body, the police did not take it away.
The village came forward and said that they could bury Lao Liu, and since the murderer was already known, there was no need to take him for an autopsy.
There is a small episode.
That's the last thing Liu Zhongtang told me, I didn't say it.
In addition, when Liu Wensan and I returned to the village, I had an additional friend request on WeChat.
Looking at the profile picture, it turns out it’s the pretty policewoman!
At that time, my heartbeat accelerated a lot.
What's going on here...is there anything else you need to see me for?
After passing the friend application, the policewoman sent me a smiling emoticon and said: "Luo Shiliu, let me get to know you. My name is Xu Shiyu. I feel that you are related to the murder case. I will add you as a friend first. If there is anything in the future, If you have any cases or suspicions, you can contact me directly for inquiries.”
In my mind: "..."
Of course, I didn't dare to send it out, so I could only say the word "um".
"Sixteen, what's wrong? You don't look good?" Liu Wensan asked me.
I said awkwardly: "No...it's okay."
I didn’t say anything about my WeChat friends, otherwise Liu Wensan would definitely have to tease me again.
"Okay, let's take a rest and find a burial place in the evening, bury it for Lao Liu, and put incense sticks on it."
"Uncle Wen San will take you to do business tomorrow." Liu Wen San took out half a bottle of Erguotou from nowhere, smashed two gulps, and lay down on a chair in the yard to take a nap.
To be honest, I am not even half-assed at studying Feng Shui. I just rely on rote memorization of house rules.
Fortunately, the position of Judge Mao Shan is clearly stated in the house scriptures.
In the afternoon, I went to order Lao Liu the best Feng Shui position on the mountain.
The people in the village started digging the grave for Lao Liu to be buried.
Of course, the iron nail was pulled out, and it was impossible for Lao Liu to carry it into the soil.
I deliberately waited until the villagers were almost dispersed, and then finally offered three sticks of incense to Lao Liu.
He whispered, Liu Zhongtang told me everything about him, I will handle it and let him go in peace, don't worry.
There was obviously no wind in the mountain, but the ghost papers in front of Lao Liu's grave were flying all over the sky!
The firelight was also flickering in mid-air.
According to the words of the rural elders, it is because the people below are happy that they have such a reaction.
I felt a lot more relaxed inside.
I am also going back to have a good rest.
As a result, as soon as I walked down the mountain, I always felt something sinister behind me, as if someone was watching...
It's going to be dark again by now.
He glanced back subconsciously.
On the small dirt road going up the mountain, there was a man standing there, looking at me from a distance.
If not Ma Baozhong, who else? !
