"When did you go to the back mountain? When did you come back? The officer looked at Liu Zhan and asked.

"We went to Houshan about half a month ago, and then came back yesterday." Liu Zhan said.

"Why did you come back yesterday?" The officer asked carefully, and every question was not missed.

"Because we estimated that the food at home was almost exhausted, we came back to see if they were gone." Liu Zhan said.

"I want to know if they're gone, but you don't know in advance, do you? In other words, you don't know if the victims are gone before you come back, right? The officer asked carefully.

"Yes." Liu Zhan agreed.

"If that's the case, then why not let one person come back first, but the whole family comes back together? If the victims hadn't left, wouldn't your whole family still have to be relied on by them when they came back? The officer looked at Liu Zhan and asked.

"Comrade policeman, we sent people back first, the day before yesterday, it was my son-in-law who came back first, let him see the situation at home, by the way, see if the scoundrels are gone, my son-in-law went back and said that they were all gone, we came back together yesterday." Father Ji couldn't help but open his mouth to defend Liu Zhan.

"When I asked where your son-in-law was on the 28th, why did he say that he was on the mountain?" The officer asked with a frown.

"He's on the mountain, and he went down the mountain after breakfast in the morning, and came back in the evening." Dad Ji explained.

"Really?" The police officer looked at Liu Zhan and asked.

"Yes." Liu Zhan nodded and said.

"Then what time do you come down and what time do you get back to the mountain?" The policeman asked again.

"I left just after dawn in the morning, and came back in the evening." Liu Zhan said to the police.

"And where were you on June 29th?" The policeman asked again.

"Our family came back on the 29th, and after I got home, I was cleaning the yard with my father-in-law and swept all day." Liu Zhan replied truthfully.

"All day?" The officer glanced towards the small yard, the yard was very clean, how could it be cleaned up for the day?

"Well, when the victims left, they stained our small courtyard, and my father-in-law and I took a lot of effort to clean it." Liu Zhan said.

"Yes, those victims are so disrespectful, after eating and living, they have ruined our yard, not only the yard, but also the crops on the hillside, which have also been ruined by those beasts, it's really not a thing." The more Dad Ji spoke, the more angry he became, and when it came to anger, his face turned blue with anger.

"Dad, you don't have to say a word." Ji Ran saw that the situation was not good, and lost no time in reminding.

"The plague destroyed your crops?" The police officer seemed to have found a new clue, looked at Ji's father and asked.

"Girl, don't stop me, the police are here, even if you don't do anything, can't you complain?" Father Ji ignored Ji Ran's obstruction and continued to say his own way.

"Uncle, you say." The officer seemed to be curious to know this information because it could be related to the case.

The police officer in charge of recording on the side also began to record seriously.

"Comrade policeman, I won't tell you, those scoundrels are really too much, a group of disaster victims came before, everyone is fine, nothing more than to ask you for food and clothing, you give it, and the people leave, but, since the second batch of disaster victims came, they have been playing all kinds of scoundrels in the village, openly robbing, clearly asking, if you don't give it, it will beat you, it is useless to call the police, the police just say a few words and leave, these scoundrels can't control them when they see the police, they are becoming more and more lawless, Lai lives in our house for more than ten days, After eating all our food, even the chickens and rabbits we had worked so hard to raise, and then we couldn't bear it anymore, so my daughter told me that they would move to the back mountains and hide, and when there was no food at home, they left.

I thought about it, so I took my daughter-in-law and my wife to the back mountain, I thought that those scoundrels had eaten up the food and left, and we came back to continue our lives, but when my son-in-law came back the day before yesterday, he found that the yard was smashed by people, and the crops and fields were also ruined by those scoundrels.

My old man has lived most of his life, and he has never seen such a conscienceless person.

In my opinion, those scoundrels should have been beaten, and they must have been bullied again, and when they encountered hard stubble, they asked me to say that they should have been repaired a long time ago. Father Ji said emotionally.

Hearing what Dad Ji said, several policemen glanced at each other and seemed to understand something.

The policeman in charge of making the record, after carefully recording it, walked up to Ji's father, pointed to the transcript just now and said, "Uncle, take a look, is this record right?" If that's right, please sign it. ”

After Dad Ji saw the transcript, his heart trembled slightly, he didn't expect that his words were still recorded in the small book, and he had to let himself sign it, and he suddenly had a bad premonition in his heart.

I always feel that signing is an unlucky thing.

"Comrade policeman, my dad is old and speaks out of proportion, don't take it seriously." Ji Ran walked over and persuaded.

"Don't worry, we won't catch a good guy by mistake, and we won't miss a bad guy." The policeman who made the transcript said with a smile.

"Uncle, if you don't want to sign, you can just press a handprint." The policeman took out another box, and there was red paint in the box, and as long as he pressed his hand on it, and then pressed it on the record, it would leave a clear handprint.

Dad Ji thought about it, I didn't say the wrong thing, why didn't I dare to sign it?

So, Ji's father was heartbroken, picked up the pen, and signed his name on the record.

"I'm telling the truth, and I'm not breaking the law when I speak, what else can I do?" Father Ji finished signing as he spoke.

"Okay, uncle, thank you for your cooperation, we still have to go to the next one to continue the investigation, so I won't bother you." After the police officer in charge finished speaking, he left with three policemen and went to a villager's house next door.

After sending the police away, Liu Zhancai finally breathed a sigh of relief, and Dad Ji also unknowingly got a wet back.

I don't know why, the common people are always afraid of officials, and they can't help but tremble when they see the police, and Dad Ji thinks this is not a good phenomenon.

The police are supposed to protect the people, but why are they afraid?

Late at night, the more Ji Ran thought about it, the more wrong it became, because when the police were making notes, the focus of those policemen was actually on Liu Zhan, but they deliberately avoided Liu Zhan and kept interrogating Ji's father.

And when he finally made a transcript, he only asked Ji's father to sign it, which seemed to hide some kind of cattiness.
