Chapter 31: Falling apart
Zhou Dayong happened to be at this time, instructed by Zhou Yuandong, to come to the dung pit to see the progress of dung.
He was also shocked, and hurriedly asked people to use an empty dung bucket to fill the skull and human bones, and give them to Zhou Yuandong for his eyes.
After Zhou Yuandong saw it, he was stunned for a moment, and then, as if he suddenly thought of something extremely sad, he actually cried silently.
Xiao Qiongzhi was taken aback, and was about to persuade Zhou Yuandong to say a few words, but Liu Wuxiu pulled her aside and whispered: "Zhi'er, don't persuade the patriarch, let him cry for a while, anyone can't help but cry when it comes to this kind of sad thing." ”
"Aunt Liu, do you mean that there may be relatives of the patriarch in those skeletons?" Xiao Qiongzhi immediately understood.
"Yes, there is one in it, it should be the patriarch's Mannu." Liu Wuxiu replied.
Xiao Qiongzhi was even more surprised: "How did you see that there was one inside, it was the patriarch's Manchu girl?" ”
Liu Wuxiu replied with confidence: "Because, it has been exactly thirteen years since Bi Li Zhu remarried Zhou Youqiu with her mother." And in the past thirteen years, the village has happened to be intermittent, and four little girls have disappeared. ”
"One of them is the patriarch's Mannu. There are also three, namely a pair of twin girls from Wang Chunhua and a girl from a family living in the courtyard of the old house. ”
"Huh? If all this is true, wouldn't Bi Li Zhu become the female enemy of the patriarch and Aunt Wang? Xiao Qiongzhi was startled.
"Yes, Zhi'er, don't you remind me, I forgot this, Wang Chunhua, that idiot, was still protecting Bi Li Zhu's stinky prostitute just now, if you let her know that her previous twin daughters were killed by Bi Li Zhu's stinky prostitute, do you think she will be so angry that she will kill Bi Lizhu's stinky prostitute, or will she be so angry that she will commit suicide?" The more Liu Wuxiu talked, the more interesting she felt.
In the end, she simply pulled Xiao Qiongzhi and ran to Wang Chunhua's house.
The dog and the stone saw it and hurried to follow.
Xiao Qiongzhi also served their family's urgency.
After arriving at the gate of Wang Chunhua's yard, Liu Wuxiu reached out and patted the door twice at random, then began to pull his neck and shouted at the yard: "Wang Chunhua, in the dung pit of Brother Qiu's house, four children's skulls were found, two of them should be your twin girls, you hurry up and take a look!" If it's too late, the skull will be buried by the patriarch, and you won't have a chance to see it! ”
However, after shouting, the courtyard was quiet, and there was no response from Wang Chunhua.
Liu Wuxiu was a little disappointed and shouted again.
But after a while, I still didn't hear any movement in the yard, let alone Wang Chunhua's response.
Liu Wuxiu's patience ran out.
She pulled Xiao Qiongzhi and walked back, muttering as she walked: "Strange, usually Wang Chunhua heard me make such a fuss, and opened the door early and came out, but this time there was no movement at all, is it not at home?" ”
Xiao Qiongzhi shook her head: "No, she must be at home." ”
"Why?" Liu Wuxiu, the dog, and the stone were all curious, and asked in unison.
Xiao Qiongzhi said: "First, the door of her house is tied from the inside, which means that there must be someone in the house. Second, the eldest girl is timid, if she is alone at home, when she hears the words of her aunt just shouted that there are 'skeletons', she must be frightened, open the door and come out to find her mother or find someone else to be brave. ”
"However, just now, the eldest girl didn't come to open the door, which means that either she is not at home, and it is Aunt Wang who is at home, or she is more than one person at home, and Aunt Wang is also at home, giving her courage."
"Yes! Why didn't I think of that? Liu Wuxiu suddenly realized.
Unwillingly, she immediately turned around and knocked on Wang Chunhua's door, and continued to shout, over and over again, without pausing at all.
Xiao Qiongzhi looked at her headache and persuaded her: "Aunt Liu, Aunt Wang doesn't believe you at all, it's useless for you to shout many times, forget it." ”
Liu Wuxiu said with some trepidation: "Zhi'er, I originally came to see Wang Chunhua's jokes, but now, seeing that she doesn't believe me at all, I'm really afraid of her, I missed the opportunity to see the last of their girls, and I was anxious for her in my heart." ”
"Then you don't have to worry, the patriarch's grandfather's side must be interrogating Bi Lizhu and her accomplices now, and when the interrogation results are out, someone will be sent to inform Aunt Wang, and when the time comes, Aunt Wang will not even believe the people sent by the patriarch's grandfather." Xiao Qiongzhi comforted gently.
"Okay, Zhi'er is right, then let's continue to go back and watch the excitement of Bili Zhu." Liu Wuxiu's eyes lit up, pulled Xiao Qiongzhi, turned around and strode back.
The dog and the stone hurriedly followed.
Soon, he returned to the courtyard of Zhou Youqiu's house.
Patriarch Zhou Yuandong, as Xiao Qiongzhi expected, was interrogating Bi Li Zhu and the short and fat woman Li Xihu.
In order not to miss important clues, Xiao Qiongzhi walked up to Zhou Dayong and asked curiously: "Second uncle, did the patriarch grandpa find out anything from the mouths of Bi Li Zhu and her cousin?" ”
Zhou Dayong shook his head and said with a solemn expression: "They are all very cunning, and they only admit that they really threw Zhou Youqiu into the dung pit in order to save funeral expenses, but they all said that they don't know how the four skulls in the dung pit came from." ”
"The patriarch was very angry, so he asked me to take someone to carefully search Bili Zhu's house to see if there was any hidden murder weapon, and asked the two aunts to carefully search the bodies of Bili Zhu's sisters. Unfortunately, nothing was found. ”
"So, this matter is going to be over?" Liu Wuxiu stood beside Xiao Qiongzhi and was very disappointed after listening to Zhou Dayong's words.
"Not necessarily, I have a solution, I should be able to try." Xiao Qiongzhi thought about it and said.
"Zhi'er, what's the solution?" Zhou Dayong and Liu Wuxiu's eyes lit up at the same time, and they asked in unison.
"Let's go to the side." Xiao Qiongzhi didn't want others to know his own way, so as not to cause unnecessary trouble.
After a while, Liu Wuniang and Xiao Qiongzhi returned to their original places, and Zhou Dayong walked up to Zhou Yuandong, leaned into his ear, and whispered in a low voice for a while.
After hearing this, Zhou Yuandong suddenly became enlightened, and his originally depressed expression was swept away.
He first asked people to plug Bi Lizhu's mouth with a cloth and blindfold Bi Lizhu's eyes, and then, looking at Bi Lizhu's short and fat cousin, he said in a deep voice: "Zhou Youqiu is honest, it is impossible to kill, you and Bi Lizhu threw him in the dung pit, and the method of throwing four skeletons into the dung pit is exactly the same." ”
"That is to say, now, no matter whether the lives of those four skeletons were killed by you or not, you are the biggest suspects in killing them, as long as I report this matter to the government, even if you are not beheaded, you will definitely be locked in prison until death."
"Li Xihu, are you willing to follow Bi Li Zhu and be locked up in prison until death?"
"I don't want to! I really just helped my cousin throw Zhou Youqiu into the dung pit, and didn't help my cousin kill people, patriarch, you can do well, don't send me to the government, let me live. Li Xihu realized that this matter could not be shirked at all, and began to be afraid.
Zhou Yuandong took the opportunity to say again: "I don't think you look like a murderer." However, since Bi Li Zhu can invite you over this time and help her throw Zhou Youqiu into the dung pit, it means that at least she will not hide it from you, a cousin, if she does bad things. ”
"If you can recall it carefully, did she ever mention the murder of the child to you, if you can recall it, and at the same time can prove that you were not present when she killed the child, I am willing to believe you, not a murderer, and will not send you to the government."
