Chapter 16: Mystery

"Until that day, a police car came to the village, and the wellhead was more lively than usual, crowded with people."

"I stood there with a freshly caught crab and listened to them say strange things, strange things."

"Some words can be understood, some words are not."

"For example, Uncle Deman and Aunt Fang in the village were killed by thieves at night, and one son is still alive."

"The gangsters also died at Uncle Deman's house, but the treasure that could be fished out of the sea was nowhere to be found."

"Some people say that Uncle Deman's treasure has been sold, some people say that the gangsters and accomplices ran away with the baby, and some people say that Uncle Deman hid the treasure in a place where no one can find it..."

"I can still remember what I understand, and I forget what I don't understand."

"Zhang Guangsheng is about the same age as me, he is the son of Uncle Deman, and he is also the best hair boy in the village."

"He disappeared three months after the accident and knocked on his door without a response. Later, I learned that he had left the island and followed his relatives outside. ”

"Then things slowly passed for more than a whole year, and he had long since faded out of everyone's field of vision, and I didn't see him again."

"Children remember things very quickly, they forget things very quickly, and I don't remember how long it took me not to think of him."

"Until one day I passed by his door and saw him standing at the window of the little attic, and I was looking at him, and he was looking at me."

"He's still the same as when he left, he hasn't changed at all, I recognize him at a glance..."

"I tried to wave to him and say hello, but in the end, he didn't even reply to me..."

"Later, I thought about it, maybe he didn't recognize me, after all, a year has passed, and I have grown taller, darker, and stronger."

"I climbed over the fence of his house, ready to go up and surprise him."

Zhang Guangsheng suddenly laughed stupidly when he recalled this, very mad.

"I searched the whole house and didn't see him... I thought he was trying to play peek-a-boo with me, just like before..."

"But this time it's a different person, I used to hide, he came to look for it, and now it's him hiding, I'm looking for it."

"It's dark, and I still haven't found him..."

"I'm afraid that if I don't come home for dinner, my mother will come to me with a flat pole... I had to make an agreement with him to come back tomorrow to continue hiding and seek. ”

"Even though he didn't reply to me, he didn't say anything and assumed that he agreed."

"When I went out to play the next day, my mother suddenly grabbed me and mysteriously told me that there was something dirty in the village, and I should not run around alone."

"I wouldn't tell her at the time, where I was running around alone, I was playing hide and seek with Zhang Guangsheng."

"When I came to the gate of his house again, he was still standing at the window of the small attic looking at me as he did yesterday, and he ignored my greetings to him as he did yesterday..."

"I couldn't find where he was hiding for days, and every night I would honestly go home for dinner and come back the next day."

"I don't know who saw that I often went to Zhang Guangsheng's house to play, and then told my parents."

"I'm grounded, and I can't go out to play hide and seek with Zhang Guangsheng."

"Every time I want to be clever and sneak out, my parents will beat me hard with a coat hanger."

"Once, my parents were pumping me to death, it hurt so much, I cried very loudly; Mom and Dad, they also leaked out because of their distress. ”

"I said that there have been a lot of rumors in the village recently."

"Some people say they saw a child under the banyan tree at the head of the village..."

"Some people say that they saw a child on the abandoned fishing boat of Uncle Deman's house by the sea..."

"Some people say they saw a child at the mouth of the well in the village..."

"Some people say that they also saw a child in Uncle Deman's grave..."

"Some people say... A lot of people in the village were saying it, but I couldn't remember exactly. ”

"My parents told me that the child was Uncle Deman's child, my little Zhang Guangsheng."

"They also told me that Zhang Guangsheng may have left with Aunt Deman Shufang a year ago..."

"said that the Zhang Guangsheng we saw back then was not alive..."

"Yes, a year has passed, I have grown up a little bit, how can he not change at all."

"After that, I never went to his house again, and I never went to play hide and seek with him."

"Another year passed, and there were fewer and fewer people in the village, and they all moved to the big cities."

"Not long after, my parents also said that they would take me to the big city with them..."

"It's been more than ten or twenty years, and as I get older, my perception of the world has become clearer and clearer."

"The concept of ghosts and gods in backward feudalism gradually blurred, and I began to believe in science."

"Because I'm poor, because it's too stressful to live in a big city."

"I want to find the treasure buried in the village, it can change my life..."

"I remember when I was a child playing hide and seek with Zhang Guangsheng, he told me that his family had a secret world, which was a secret grid, and no one knew about it except his parents."

"I think it's very likely that his family's treasure has been kept in this secret compartment all the time."

"If I don't believe in science, I'm afraid I won't have the courage to go back to the village."

"I went back to the village and searched the house for days, until I finally found the dark compartment in the attic."

"The baby really kept there all the time."

"And then I went out and saw you..."

"Before I met you, I didn't know who Master Wang was, and it was impossible to kill him..."

"Now you should believe me, I really didn't kill anyone, and I didn't have the guts."

Everyone listened to Zhang Guangsheng's statement of the whole incident, and they all analyzed it silently.

Long...

"So you're not Zhang Guangsheng at all, and you're not the owner of this house, but he's just small?"

"Well, my name is Zhang Jiaming." Zhang Guangsheng nodded.

No, it should be Zhang Jiaming nodded.

"This can't clear the suspicion that you are a murderer!" Lin Yu put the porcelain down carefully, "I didn't know your motive for killing before, but now it's very clear, it should be that you were seen by Master Wang when you came in to steal something, and then killed people!"

The motive for the crime is there, the time of the crime is also the same, the matter is already clear, and you are definitely the murderer. ”

"I..." Zhang Jiaming opened his mouth, he couldn't say a complete sentence for a long time, obviously he didn't know how to defend himself.

"Since you are not Zhang Guangsheng, then the person who worships in Zhang Deman's cemetery is not you, right?"

Ning Qing did not directly sentence the other party to death like Lin Yu, and there were still many unclear explanations about the whole matter. Not only that, but he even suspected that there was another person hiding on the island.

After all, Zhang Jiaming is just a thief, and there is no need to worship Zhang Deman.

"It's not me... I've been living here since I got back to the village and haven't gone out. Zhang Jiaming shook his head again and again, "That's an excuse I made to deal with you, I stayed in the village for the past few days, and I didn't know that anyone had worshiped Uncle Deman." ”
