Chapter 62: Conclusion

In the face of Han Rui's question, Han Shisan seemed to turn a deaf ear, his heart was numb, and he reacted in half a ring, and reluctantly nodded and said, "That's right, so even if you are the sect leader, you can't use the same trick you just used to deal with the landlord of Zhou." ”

"How is that possible?" Han Rui said with a smile: "It's just that there are a few questions that are unclear, so I just ask Uncle Thirteen for advice." ”

"What's the problem, I don't ...... If you know, I'll tell you. Han Shisan was a little nervous and almost said the wrong thing.

"First." Stretching out a finger, Han Rui asked, "Does Uncle Thirteen know Zhou Wei?" ”

"Know...... Uh, don't know. Han 13 said, the preface did not match the afterword, seeing this situation, the villagers naturally had more doubts in their hearts.

"I really don't know? Never seen before. Han Rui confirmed again.

After hesitating and thinking about it carefully, Han Shisan said: "Yes, when I was young, he always ran to the head of the village and frolicked with you children. ”

"That's natural, he is now a bachelor in Yangzhou, and he hasn't been back to the village for several years." Han Rui said with a smile: "Don't talk about the thirteenth uncle, even me and the eighteenth brother, we may not be able to recognize him at a glance." ”

Han Zhuang nodded slightly, when he clashed with Zhou Wei, he didn't know who the other party was.

"In that case, when I asked Zhou Papi for a witness just now, you told me that you saw the eighteenth brother pushing Zhou Wei down the river." Han Rui asked, "You don't recognize him, how do you know that he is Zhou Wei?" ”

The corners of his mouth moved slightly, and Han Shisan smiled easily: "Guess, the landlord of Zhou came to the village to shout and shout and kill, saying that he wanted to avenge his son, accusing Xiao Eighteen of pushing his son down the river, and he knew what was going on when he heard it." ”

"That's it, what is there to doubt, we know this, and we can speculate."

"Sect Leader, maybe you are mistaken, Uncle Thirteen is not a bad person......"

The villagers said one after another, between the words, there was a bit of favoritism, after all, compared to Han Rui, who had been recuperating on the couch for many years, everyone was more familiar with Han Shisan.

"Really?" Han Rui smiled lightly and said softly, "Thirteenth Uncle, do you know what Zhou Papi's real name is?" ”

Eh, everyone was stunned, Han Shisan was also blindsided, among the townships, there are more names or nicknames, and they will not deliberately inquire carefully, who will know what the other party's name is.

"Zhou Papi?"

"Zhou Laizi?"

"Tuesday ......"

Halfway through, Han Shisan shook his head slowly, his heart was a little cold, and he vaguely knew that Han Rui must have noticed something.

"Does Uncle Thirteen know who Zhou Wei is?" Han Rui asked.

After thinking about it carefully for a moment, Han Shisan said cautiously: "The boy of the Zhou family, ranked fourth, his name, I have heard others say it. ”

"Zhou Papi's son Thursday Lang is actually not called Zhou Wei." Han Rui shook his head and said: "Zhou Wei is the name of a villager in Zhouchen Village, two days ago, he came to my house to borrow money, and this name was written on the IOU. ”

"Impossible...... I ......" subconsciously blurted out, Han Shisan knew that it was going to be bad, and hurriedly replied: "I also heard that that person is in Zhouchen Village, he shouldn't lie to me." ”

"Yes, who is that person, I also want to know if Uncle Thirteen can invite him."

Hesitating, swallowing his throat, Han Shisan said: "Chen Guzi's rotten sesame seeds, he just said it casually at the beginning, it happened that I wrote it down, he may not remember this thing, in fact, I also forgot, but the sect chief just mentioned it, and I remembered it, besides, when the sect chief asked this, everyone would think that he was talking about the Zhou family boy." ”

"Can't I be asking about Zhou Papi?" Looking directly at Han Shisan, he found that his eyes flickered, his pupils turned, but he didn't dare to dodge, and after half a sound, Han Ruicai smiled: "But...... In this way, it can barely be explained. ”

Having said that, Han Shisan didn't dare to relax and deal with it carefully, who knows if Han Rui will lay a trap in his words again, and the villagers next to him are even more silent, when things are not clear, no one dares to stand up and support Han Shisan's innocence.

"The second thing." Han Rui continued: "Last night, it was the Thirteenth Uncle who was in charge of guarding the ancestral hall. ”

Probably afraid of saying too much and making mistakes, Han Shisan simply nodded his head.

Han Rui asked again: "Last night, except for the thirteenth uncle, no one in the village should have been in the ancestral hall again." ”

Nodding, he shook his head again, and found that it was not clear to express it like this, so Han Shisan spoke: "The rules of the village, if it weren't for the summons of the clan elders and sect chiefs, no one would have been noisy in the ancestral hall, and it was okay yesterday, except for me, naturally no one has come." At night, I confessed that I was lazy, and I went to bed until dawn, probably sleeping too deeply, and I was unaware of what was happening, or maybe it was during this time that someone sneaked in. ”

Han Shisan's explanation seemed a little pale, but it was not unreasonable, at least there was a possible surname, and when guarding the ancestral hall, there were not a few villagers who slept at night, and no one was embarrassed to accuse him of this.

Shaking his head slightly, Han Rui said, "Uncle Thirteen, how do you sleep at night?" Leave the doors and windows open? ”

His face turned pale, and Han Shisan said in a low voice: "Naturally, I lock the doors and windows, but at night I am tired, sleepy, dazed, and there are times when I forget negligently." ”

"And what about last night?" Han Rui asked.

“…… I don't remember exactly. Han 13 said, anyway, there is no conclusive evidence, as long as he denies it, there must still be villagers who believe in him.

"Then where he slept, Uncle Thirteen should always remember."

Han Shisan hesitated, and someone else replied on his behalf: "The ancestral tablet is enshrined in the hall, naturally it cannot be disrespectful, only by spreading the mat in the corridor of the patio outside the hall, or in front of the gate, to avoid the wind and rain, so that you can sleep peacefully." ”

"The corridor can only be sheltered from the wind, and the eaves of the gate can be sheltered from the rain." Han Rui looked at the layout outside the hall, and said: "There was a light rain last night, so the thirteenth uncle should be sleeping under the eaves of the gate, whether someone unlocks the lock or pries the door to enter, there must be some alarm to the sleeping thirteenth uncle, so to speak, if someone really sneaks into the ancestral hall, then they can only climb the window and climb over the wall to enter." ”

Han Rui lowered his head and sighed lightly: "The light rain is not heavy, but it will be wet with mud, it is best to let a few people go to the corner of the house in front of the window outside to observe carefully, to see if there are muddy footprints, before and after the ancestral hall, very few people will pass by, maybe there are clues that thieves have sneaked in, and it can also prove the innocence of the thirteenth uncle." ”

"Eighteen, let's go out and see ......"

"No, it's clean, not to mention footprints, even if there are not a few snails, it's all smooth and smooth green moss." Han Qi stood up, walked out of the main hall, came to the window of the corridor, pushed open the window sash, looked at it for a moment, and said, "The wall is dusty, and there are many cobwebs, but there are no other traces. ”

"It's the same ...... here" Several young men scattered one after another, carefully inspecting the corners of the ancestral hall, doors and windows, and got the same conclusion as Han Qi.

Suddenly, everyone looked at Han Shisan's gaze, and doubts appeared in disbelief

Thank you all for your support.
