Chapter 69: Analysis
After burying the father of Old Tewo and Golotta, the first thing Regit wanted to do was to find out the murderer as soon as possible, correct him, comfort the dead, and calm people's fears.
He sat alone and quietly by the fire, his eyes closed, and his mind checked every hunter in the tribe one by one.
Tychodor is naturally the first choice. Although he made trouble and destroyed everywhere, and even wanted to take my head, it was because he hated the old chieftain Maiatten for not teaching him the ivory scimitar, and despised me for my honesty and inaction, and was jealous of my good fortune, and tried to usurp the throne in vain.
He is a person who is ambitious and wants to do "big things", and he will not care about the cause and effect of gains and losses with an old man who has no competitiveness. So, even if Old Tewo was lying there and letting him punish him, he didn't bother to take a look.
Mosov is jealous, ruthless, and has the courage to kill. However, he usually had very little contact with Old Tewo, and even when they were together, they rarely spoke, let alone had a personal feud and quarrels. If you want to kill someone, it is useless for Mosov to kill old Tvo. When it comes to making money, Old Tewo is destitute, and the tribe has given him a few pronghorn skins, but he politely declined.
Lin Kevasili They all have a strong sense of justice, both virtue and goodness, and they are tribal elites, and it is impossible for them to do such a paradoxical thing.
……
So, who will be the murderer? Old Tewo can't hang himself and lie on the floor, right? And he hid ropes, pillows, and quilts.
Regett thought about it for a long time, and he had a headache and brain fever, and he didn't come up with a person who was really suspicious.
The flames in the fire pit dimmed, and when his wife came back to remind him, he woke up like a dream, and hurriedly added firewood to the fire pit, which was covered with a thick smoke.
News of Ferrantevo's murder soon spread among the goshawk tribe. People are staggered, panicked, and more questions and speculations.
Who is it? Why kill a lonely old man who has fought for the tribe all his life? Speculation varies, and accounts vary.
An old hunter came to Regit and said, "Chief, this matter is not trivial, you must be aware of it, and cut the murderer with a thousand knives, so as to establish the righteousness of the tribe." ”
Vasily and Linko and a few others also came to Regit. When the old hunter saw the young men, he said to them earnestly, "The affairs of the tribe concern every family and every person. Human lives are at stake. You must assist the leader in finding this murderer, punish him severely, and comfort the soul of old Tewo in heaven with the anger of the people. ”
Everyone agreed. They were filled with righteous indignation and gritted their teeth.
Golota has not yet recovered from the grief of his father's death. After burying his father, he didn't even want to go out of the house, and he languished all day long, except for sleeping on the fire.
Seeing that her brother was depressed, Yashata was worried that she would break her body if she continued like this, so she came over to accompany him whenever she had free time.
Golota said to his sister: "Sister, our mother left early, and it was my father who raised us as adults, and I forgive me for not supporting him well in the past few years. ”
Yashata said: "Good brother, you have been very good to your father, and the tribesmen have a good reputation, and no one does not praise him. Even your brother-in-law often praises you in front of me, saying that you are filial and kind. It's my sister who really didn't do well, and I didn't fulfill the obligations of a daughter. ”
When Landhoe and Mosov arrived, Yashata invited them to sit down, exchanged a few pleasantries, and told Golota to take care of himself before leaving.
Golota looked at Landhoe with tears in her eyes, and because of Mosov's presence, she suppressed the anger in her heart.
Landhoe scratched his head and said to Golotta, "I'm sorry, I didn't expect things to be so bad. My original intention is also for all of us. I don't think it's wrong for me to be the first to step up when the head needs help. ”
Mosov added: "Yes, Landho's intentions are good. Forgive him. ”
Golota let out a deep sigh and sighed, "It's hard to be alone. Sometimes I feel scared when I think about it. If we continue to condone and cheer my brother-in-law like this, I don't know what the result will be, whether the benefits outweigh the disadvantages, or the disadvantages outweigh the advantages, are we really helping my brother-in-law, or are we sending him to the point of no return step by step? ”
Tychotose came. Still wearing a hat crookedly, using one brim to cover the ear hole without the ear wheel.
It is not difficult for the observant to notice that if someone were to the left of Tichota and talk to him, he would turn his head to look at you. In fact, it is not to look at the speaker, but to allow the other ear to listen. Ears without ear wheels are like mobile phones with poor signal today, intermittent and intermittent.
Tichota sat down and said to Golotta, "Golotta, mourning is good. I can feel your grief and turn it into strength. Together, we bring glory to the elderly. ”
Golotta bowed her head, reluctant to speak to Tychoto. Although he didn't hate Tychota very much, he became more and more dissatisfied with Tychota.
Because he is a brother-in-law, in a family relationship, and Tichota has been forcing Golotta to do things for him for so many years, Golotta is more indecisive than Regget, and sometimes he has not had time to distinguish between good and bad, and he should have done it. What he wanted was to be better in front of his brother-in-law, so that his brother-in-law would return this love to his sister and scold her less.
For this reason, Golota often regrets that he was too soft-faced and did things that he shouldn't have done. Every time I secretly made up my mind to reduce my dealings with Tycho and never do anything bad. However, when his brother-in-law needs him for something, he forgets everything and obeys his orders.
It's a brother-in-law after all. Family affection has psychological induction, and it is difficult to break the knife.
Landhuo was silent, and sat there with his head bowed and picking at his nails.
"I heard that Regitte said that he must find out who killed Old Two." Mosov said.
"Don't worry." "It's possible that Reggett was thinking about it at this time. He suspects that everyone is normal. However, without physical evidence, his suspicions were all in vain, and he could only make a few more gray hairs on the top of his head. ”
Golota pondered for a long time and said, "Wouldn't it be good for everyone to check it?" ”
Tychota said, "It's none of your business here. You should adjust your mood first. Then he turned to Landhoe and Mosov and said, "Later, I'll go and sit down at Regget's and see what he's doing." ”
In the Regitte house.
Sending away the old hunter who came to the door to instruct Regit to find the murderer, Regit said to several tribal elites: "The cause of old Tevor's death is very strange, and there are no clues left at the scene, which has caused great inconvenience to our detection." Please share your opinions and offer good advice. ”
Lin Ke, who is usually not good at words, said: "No one is too lacking in morality. What do you get by killing a lonely old man? ”
"Now is not the time to consider the causes, the key is to first identify a few suspects, and then narrow them down to one or two people, focusing on investigation and interrogation," Vasily said. ”
Lin Ke said: "There are twenty-five hunters in the tribe, nearly a hundred people, which one is doubtful and which is not, it's hard to say. Some people have a poisonous mouth but a soft heart. Some people hide knives in their smiles. If we just sit here and guess with our hearts, there will definitely be no results. ”
"Then you say, what should we do?" Vasily was a little more serious with Linko.
Lin Ke said without showing weakness: "My meaning is always the same, that is, to find out the reason first." ”
"How to check? Old Tevo is dead, are you still going to let him talk? ”
"The tribesmen are not dead. At least the killer is still alive. ”
"Since you know the murderer is still alive, why don't you find him out?"
"If I can find the murderer, why bother talking to you here?"
Seeing that Linko and Vasily were speaking sharply, and his voice was also raised, Regit hurriedly prevented them from calming down.
The two men were red-faced, looking at each other, not giving in to each other.
Tichota came to Reget's house lightly, tilted his head and stretched his neck to eavesdrop on the movement inside, but he mistook his head and stretched out the left side without the ear chakra, but fortunately he reacted quickly, adjusted the direction of his head in time, stretched out his left ear, and vaguely heard Regit talking.
Suddenly, the door opened. Tichotoe was startled.
It was Vasily who opened the door. He wanted to come out and breathe. Seeing Tychota eavesdropping outside, he asked, "What are you doing here?" ”
"Oh hehe. I want to talk to the chief, and as soon as I got here, you came out. Thanks for opening the door. Thanks for opening the door. ”
"The chief is in the house. Let's go inside. Vasily said angrily, "And such a coincidence." ”
"What? Don't you believe in coincidences? "Do you think I've been eavesdropping on you all along?" Young people, courage is your treasure, don't take it as a confidence. ”
Seeing that Tycos was speaking disrespectfully to Vasily outside, Regit got up and went out and said, "Come in, all of you, the pond is on fire." ”
Tichota went in and sat down where Vasily had sat before. Vasily came in, said "I'm not going to sit yet," and turned away.
Seeing that Vasily was gone, Lin Ke hurriedly got up and excused, "Wait for me." Vasily, I have important clues for you. With that, he chased him out.
Another hunter, who had not spoken, also got up to say goodbye and left when he saw that Linko and Vasily were gone.
The air in the room immediately froze. Only the occasional crackling sound of pine knots burning can prove that there is a little bit of life.
When the enemy met, he was relatively speechless. Si Swenwen, without losing the demeanor of a big husband.
Tycho Doregit sat across from him. The right is the punch, and the pulse is the movement. Although there are no waves in front of him, there are flames whirring and jumping.
Both of them looked down at the flames in the pond, as if there was something strange in the flames, and there was an answer they wanted. However, what the flames changed was their body temperature and the burning of their eyes, but it could not change their inner thoughts.
Now, in the house of Reget, not in officialdom, not in public, there is no need for Regit to show the shelf and gentlemanly demeanor of the chief. Because, he is a human being, an extremely ordinary flesh-and-blood person who will be happy and sad.
Over the years, he had forgiven Tychodo too many times in order to take care of his leader's magnanimous image. Although he rarely mentions it, in the depths of his heart, he will never forget it. Everyone has a bottom line and selfishness, but some people will explode immediately, and some people will suppress their hatred deep in their hearts, not waiting for an opportunity to retaliate, and they will not forget.
Tichoto's face-damaging images and voices passed by Regget's eyes and ears one after another, and finally froze on the blessing party of Linko's son's full moon, and Tichoto's hideous gaze and the words that strangled him when he breathed sounded in his ears over and over again, "Chief, rest assured to see Maiatten, he is waiting for you in the cave on the other side of the snowy valley." As long as I hold on a little longer, your tongue will stick out and feed the wolves. ”
Tychota knew that Regett was angry with him, and he remembered his previous disrespect to him. Especially remembering the sensitive words when he was about to strangle Reget, it totals whether Regett took it true and whether he remembered it.
Yi Gu Li pushed the door in, and saw her husband and Tikodo sitting alone in the room, slightly stunned, and wanted to open her mouth to greet her, but Regit spoke first: "You avoid it." ”
Yi Gu Li said: "You two are alone, you won't"
"Go with confidence." Regitte said, "In the absence of persuasion, no one and I would have survived if Tichotor and I had fought." The only thing that will survive is justice and justice. ”
