At the entrance of the village ancestral hall, all the villagers gathered.

In the ancestral hall, the elders in the village sat on both sides, and Old Man Su presided over it.

"He Peng, what are you going to say. ”

He Peng said with a smile, "It is impossible for a kidnapper to rob a big living person alone without being discovered by the villagers, unless he has accomplices in the village, or he is simply from our village, do you think it's right?"

Li San immediately objected: "Impossible, our fishing village does not have this kind of guy who eats inside and outside, it must be done by outsiders, don't slander us, don't fall for his divisive scheme!"

"yes, we're not like that!"

Many villagers chimed in!

He Peng smiled: "Okay, then let me ask you, when Old Man Su chased the masked man, I chased after him, you saw it when you came later, and just now He Dazhu also said that he had been staring at me that day, and I didn't have the time to commit the crime, right?" ”

Li San shouted.

"You're a descendant of pirates, and you have pirates as accomplices, what's so strange about that. ”

He Peng said again, "Well, even this still can't rule out my suspicion, so let me ask you, what is the reason for you to exclude other people?"

Li San said again: "We are from our own village, we have watched the daughter of the Su family grow up, and our own people will not break the blood of our own village!"

The villagers echoed again!

He Peng said with a smile: "Maybe you all have your heart towards the village, but will anyone want to monopolize the Su family's bloodline, this temptation is not small, is it a village that shares good, or is it good for yourself, everyone is selfish, you ask yourself, at some point, have you ever thought of harming the interests of others for your own small interests, I don't believe that everyone is a selfless saint!"

Villagers, look at me, I'll look at you, although some people objected, but there were obviously fewer doubts, and they also admitted that sometimes they were selfish.

"Of course, I think most of the people in the village are good, you will not make a beast move for the sake of the so-called bloodline when you see Su Jing grow up, but it doesn't mean that everyone won't, so we need to carefully restore the situation!

In addition, I would like to ask you to note that many of you were called out of your homes by Su Jing to chase the masked man at that time, that is, you were with you before Su Jing's disappearance, so let me ask you, can you figure out who the last villager was with Su Jing."

Everyone looked at each other, He Peng's question really embarrassed them, yes, who was the last person to see Su Jing

He Peng asked, "Does anyone admit that they are the last person to see Su Jing and stand up!"

He Peng asked three times in a row, but no one dared to stand up.

Li San stepped forward and retorted: "Who can figure out if he is the last person, everyone is busy chasing the masked man, and no one knows whose door Su Jing is knocking on later, your question is useless, it's a waste of everyone's time!"

He Peng smiled: "But there is always someone who is the last one, isn't it and the last person can provide us with important clues, Mr. Li, you strongly oppose finding out this person, you shouldn't be the last person to see Su Jing?"

"No, it's not me, I didn't see her!"

"Okay, then now I think you have understood the meaning of my words, our first step is to find out who was the last person to be with Su Jing! First of all, it was not Old Man Su, he was fighting with the masked man at that time, it was not me, He Dazhu and the people who followed me can prove it, then who else can prove that it is not himself, stand up and say it himself!"

Xiaodouzi immediately stood up and said, "It's not me, I was sleeping at the time, my grandfather can prove it!"

Xiaodouzi's grandfather also got up and said: "Ah, I proved that it was not my grandson, when the old crane knocked on my door and told me to chase the thief, when I opened the door, the old crane saw the little bean, he can also prove that it is not the little bean, in addition, I am with the old crane I can prove that it is not the old crane head, at that time we were chasing the thief with Lao Wang, Ergazi and his daughter-in-law"

The villagers, you and I are involved in each other's proof, and one person proves it, and He Peng wrote down a few strokes in a name book. In the end, there were almost no people who could prove it, except for three.

The Li family's father and son, as well as Zhang Sheng.

Zhang Sheng looked honest, stood up and said: "I drank too much that night, and in the middle of the night I heard a lot of noise outside, thinking that it was someone's house fighting, I turned over and fell asleep again, and I didn't know that something big had happened until dawn!"

He Peng said: "So you don't have evidence to prove that you are not the one who kidnapped Su Jing, right?"

"Well, yes, but I swear, it's not me, everyone knows what kind of person I am, and I'd never do anything like that. ”

Someone chimed in: "Yes, he is a good man, he doesn't dare to set off a firecracker, how can he do such a thing"

"Hey, stop laughing at me for being timid, I'm not cowardly, okay?"

Haha, many laughed, he was notoriously timid.

He Peng smiled: "It's okay, let's first include you in the objects that can't be excluded for the time being, and we'll find out more later, which doesn't mean that you have done bad things, can you understand." ”

"Oh well, it's not me who did it anyway, I have a clear conscience!"

He Peng looked at Li San: "Then it's time for you to explain." ”

The villagers had been brought into his mode of thinking by He Peng, and they all looked at Li San with suspicion.

Li San said: "What are you all looking at me doing like this, how can I do such a thing, I am a person with an identity and a sense of proportion, I will not do this kind of thing!"

He Peng asked: "Don't talk nonsense, everyone has proved themselves, why don't you have to prove where you were that night?"

The villagers outside the ancestral hall whispered, dissatisfied with Li San's refusal to say what he did that night.

Li San looked angry and said angrily: "Okay, Lao Tzu will play with you, I see what tricks you can play, Li Qi lost the game with you that day, he was very angry, I am with him, I am persuading him!"

"Did you persuade him to persuade him not to kidnap Su Jing?"

"You are spewing blood, I am persuading me, persuading him not to be like you. Everyone showed a look of disbelief, the Li family is not generous, Li San did not persuade Li Qi to use dishonorable means to deal with He Peng, it would be good, and he even dared to persuade Li Qi not to be as knowledgeable as He Peng, this is too ridiculous.

"Oh, okay, anyway, my son is already crippled, his future has been ruined, I'll tell you the truth, Li Qi hates you very much, he wants to send someone to kill you, I advise him not to do this, at least not in the village, so you should believe it!"

Sure enough, the villagers all smiled, they didn't care about what despicable means the Li family father and son used to deal with outsiders, they had another set of concepts in their minds that were different from the world, the Li family used this way to deal with outsiders, and it was strange that they were used to it, if they didn't do it, it would be strange!

He Peng sneered: "Oh yes, but the news I got is not the case, Li Qi was not at home at the time, he was studying the kidnapping of Su Jing with a group of people, but before the price was negotiated, Su Jing had already disappeared! ”

Li San's eyes widened, He Peng said the truth, this truth can rule out Li Qi's suspicion, but Li Qi was indeed planning to kidnap Su Jing at that time, he was entangled for a while, and he didn't know whether to admit this matter or not.

He Peng glared at Li San and added: "This is what Jiang Yun said to me personally, the news was found by his Caidie, you don't want to deny it or not!"

Old Man Su suddenly interjected: "Although what Li Qi did at that time made me very angry, it also proved that he was not the murderer who kidnapped Su Jing, he is now disabled, and I will not hold a waste responsible!"

When Li San heard the word waste, an angry expression appeared on his face: "Yes, my son is a waste, he planned to kidnap Su Jing at that time, but so what, he just planned and didn't implement it." He Peng, you can't run away, don't think that pouring dirty water on our Li family will clear your suspicion!"

He Peng smiled slightly: "I'm not ready to clear my suspicions, I just want to find out who kidnapped Su Jing!"

He Peng's voice changed and said: "Your son's suspicion has been cleared, but your suspicion is even greater, because you lied just now, you said that you were persuading Li Qi at that time, but Li Qi is not in the fishing village at all, how can you persuade you, you have no evidence to prove that you are not a murderer!"

Wow

The scene was chaotic.

Li San said angrily: "You chase the thief, I went too, many people saw me!"

He Peng said: "But you were the last to appear, where were you before"

Li San's eyes dodged, and he secretly glanced at the audience twice, and suddenly said, "I was at the village chief's house that night!"

"Hmph, so you killed the village chief, otherwise why would you go to the village chief's house when he died?"

Li San said angrily: "The day before Su Jing was kidnapped, the village chief was killed, and I suspected that someone wanted to get something from the village chief, so I ambushed the village chief at night, waiting for the thieves to appear, but unfortunately I didn't wait." ”

He Peng asked, "Do you have any witnesses?"

"I can testify!" Xiaodouzi's grandfather stood up suddenly, "He mentioned this matter to me, he originally asked me to go with me, but no one in my family looked at me, so I was worried that Xiaodouzi didn't go alone." ”

"You haven't seen it with your own eyes, your testimony is limited, who else can prove it!"

Li San said: "There are still two subordinates who can prove it, but they ran away, and they ran away after you forced you to stab Li Qi!"

He Peng sneered: "Then now you are also a suspect, because you don't have strong enough evidence to prove that it was not Su Jing who you kidnapped! And if you are ambushed at the village chief's house and such a big thing happens, you should be the first to chase after the thief, but you are the last to arrive!"
