On the way back to school, Xu You kept thinking: The relationship between Li Chuang and the blacksmith shop owner is not ordinary, at least far beyond the relationship between buyers and sellers or ordinary friends, which can be seen from the behavior of worship and the tears shed. So the blacksmith shop owner must have known a lot of things about Li Chuang that he wanted to know but couldn't know. Especially the firing pin on the catapult that Li Chuang was holding in his hand.

Why did Li Chuang make the firing pin? Before Li Chuang asked Xu You to drink and meet Cao Guisheng with him, Xu You simply thought that it was just a coincidence. Later, Cao Guisheng told Xu You that Li Chuang said that Xu You not only killed Wu Changan, but also killed Zhou Guoqiang. Then, Li Chuang's appointment with Xu You to drink and tell Xu You about his possession of the firing pin were deliberately arranged by him. He was testing Xu You. However, since he said that he saw Xu You's actions in Wu Chang'an's office, then, according to common sense, he either went to the public security bureau to report the case, or chose to remain silent for fear of Xu You's retaliation. But Li Chuang boldly asked Yu to drink, and also tested him during the banquet.

This person...... It's not simple......

Xu You's heart suddenly throbbed, and he thought of another terrible possibility - Li Chuang killed Zhou Guoqiang. Li Chuang did not report the case because he wanted to tell Wu Ping about the matter through Cao Guisheng's mouth. is also a state cadre, both work in the county, after Cao Guisheng knows the truth, most of them will tell Wu Ping, because he not only has a sense of justice, but also this responsibility. It is a fact that Xu You killed Wu Chang'an, once Wu Ping points the finger at Xu You, no matter how well he hides it, he will inevitably be found out after all. Once the case of Xu You's killing of Wu Chang'an is confirmed, then he will also become the murderer of Zhou Guoqiang, as long as he has no way to prove that Zhou Guoqiang was not killed by him, then he is, unless he can find the murderer who killed Zhou Guoqiang.

In this way, Li Chuang successfully escaped the punishment of the law. Xu You felt a chill down his spine.

Fortunately, the person Li Chuang was looking for was Cao Guisheng, which happened to be Li Chuang's misfortune.

After the cold, Xu You's chest immediately felt a fever again-the opportunity came--The opportunity to help himself and Cao Guisheng escape from responsibility, and the opportunity to blame the deaths of Wu Changan and Zhou Guoqiang on Li Chuang came. Then, Li Chuang's death was disguised as suicide - after Li Chuang killed Wu Changan and Zhou Guoqiang, he was afraid that the matter would be exposed, so he committed suicide by taking poison and accidentally caught fire.

Yes, that's the decision. It is necessary to act immediately, and the first and key link is to ask the owner of the blacksmith shop to find the truth about Li Chuang's firing pin.

The night is very deep. If there is no starlight, it will probably change the sky.

The doorman fell asleep in the makeshift shed, snoring thunderously. Xu You felt out of the school gate, and with his impression, he went downhill, crossed the river, and then felt the streets of the town, and finally stood at the door of the blacksmith shop. It only took ten minutes to complete the journey during the day, and he touched it for almost an hour, and his hands, legs, and several places were bruised and bruised, and he felt a faint pain.

Xu You looked up at the sky, the shadow of the moon was hazy, the clouds were still very thick, but there was already a little light coming through, and the outlines of the buildings on the ground gradually began to appear. Towards the end of the month, Xu Yu calculated the time when he came out, and the moon came out in the second half of the night, which could not only recognize the way by the moonlight, but also people slept soundly at this time.

The window, which has fallen into disrepair, has rotted and rotted, probably because it is an eyesore, it has simply been removed, and only a window hole remains; Next door is the back entrance of a department store, and a bamboo staircase slanted under the eaves. Xu You carefully moved the stairs to the bottom of the window hole and climbed up the window hole. He listened attentively for a while, it was quiet inside, the crickets occasionally made a few chirps, and the sleeping man breathed slowly and evenly, it was the blacksmith shop owner, who had been striking iron all year round and was in good physical condition. Xu You already knew that the owner lived alone in the shop, and he had to guard all the belongings here. My wife and children live on the main street not far away.

Xu You pulled out the iron hook pinned to his waist, tied a long cloth belt at the end of the hook, and wrapped the hook head in cotton, so that he would not make a sound and leave marks on the wall when he fell. After falling to the ground, Xu You paused for a few minutes to make sure that the other party was not awakened before continuing to act.

The moonlight shining through the window reflected the furnishings of the blacksmith's shop, and the time had come. Xu Yu tiptoed to the bed, took a small bottle from his trouser pocket, opened the lid, and approached the blacksmith owner's nose. After a few seconds, Xu You took back the bottle and closed it, this is **.

Soon, Xu You made sure that he was unconscious, found a rope on the ground, tied his hands and feet, and then walked over and scooped out a large scoop of water from the bucket used by the blacksmith to quench it, poured it on his face, pinched his nose, and poured water into his mouth.

The blacksmith owner sneezed several times in a row, woke up, and coughed incessantly. He didn't understand what was going on, but he saw a man standing opposite, his face covered, his eyes exposed.

"Ahem...... Who...... Ahem"

"Shut up, talk again, and cut off your head with a knife." There are many knives in the blacksmith shop, long and short, Xu You grabbed one casually and put it around his neck.

"You...... The money is in the cupboard, don't kill me. The blacksmith owner shuddered. He has been striking iron for a living all his life, where has he ever encountered such a thing, he thought it was a money grabber, and he was half scared to death.

"Don't want your money. Answer me a few questions honestly, or ......" Xu You's hand is forced, and the blade will cut through the skin. He suppressed his voice very rough so that he would not be heard by the other party, after all, they had met, and it was inevitable that they would meet again in the future. The town is too small.

"I'm just an ironsmith, I don't know anything, please spare your life."

"Li Chuang is your friend, isn't he?"

Li ...... Rush...... I don't know. "He didn't mean to hide it, he really messed up.

"Li Chuang, the doorman of the town middle school, you dare to say that you don't know him." Xu You sent the blade in, cutting through the skin, and blood flowed down his neck. His hands were measured and bleeding very little.

"Oh my God...... Spare your life. I remembered, yes, Li Chuang, we are friends and have known each other for many years. "The owner of the blacksmith shop was so frightened that he almost oozed urine.

"He's ordered something from you, a catapult, for killing, isn't it?"

"Egg springer? God, I can make knives, hoes, and rakes here, and I've never made an egg bulletin? ”

"It's a catapult, not an egg pomp, it's used to fire discs. Li Chuang used it to kill the middle school principal Zhou Guoqiang, isn't it? Xu Yu cut to the point.

"Everyone in the town has heard about Principal Zhou's killing, but it has nothing to do with Li Chuang, and it has nothing to do with me. Even if Li Chuang killed it, it has nothing to do with me. "Scared to frightened, but I still know how to shirk responsibility.

"Okay, then do you know that Li Chuang killed Principal Zhou?"

"This ...... Ah. I don't know if Principal Zhou was killed by Li Chuang, but that catapult was indeed made by Li Chuang. But he told me at the time that it was used to shoot birds, not to kill people. The blacksmith shop owner burst into tears from the corners of his eyes, "Lao Li, I can't help you, I don't want to die, don't blame me." He spoke to the sky.

"Say, what the hell is going on?" Xu You was secretly happy for a while, and sure enough, as he expected, it was Li Chuang who killed Zhou Guoqiang.

"Some time ago, Lao Li came to me and said that there were hares and pheasants in the mountains behind the school, and he wanted to catch some and sell them in the market in exchange for some pocket money. I didn't think much of it, so I agreed. Later, he caught rabbits and pheasants, and gave some to me. Where to know...... Later, Principal Zhou died, and everyone was rumored that he was killed by someone flying in the neck with a disc. I realized that the egg bouncier was exactly the same as the one I made for Lao Li. ”

"Did he tell you why he killed Principal Zhou?"

"Oh my God, no, he couldn't have told me that. He only told me not to tell anyone that he had made an egg bouncer with me, and he said that the pheasant he hunted was a protected animal, and if anyone knew about it, he would catch me with him. Not to mention the fine, you have to sit in prison. So, my God, I told you, you must not tell anyone. After saying that, there was a lot of snot and tears.

"Okay, I believe you. Now, get up and write down everything you just said. Xu You pulled him to sit up, found the switch of the light, and turned on the light. The lights are too small, the shops are too big, and the light is not enough, but it is dozens of times stronger than before.

The blacksmith shop owner had his hands tied, and he could only hold a pen in his two hands to write, and the handwriting was messy, but he could barely make out it, and some of the words could not be written, so he replaced them with similar words. After writing, Xu Yu grabbed his thumb and dipped the blood from the wound on his neck, and pressed it on the signature at the end of the text.

"You have a son and a daughter. My daughter just got married last year, and she married to a family surnamed Zhang in the next village. And the son begat another son. I'm not wrong, am I? Xu You put away the confession, folded it and put it in his trouser pocket, and turned off the light.

"God, you ......," the blacksmith shop owner knelt on the bed, "who are you, God, all the sins are borne by me, you must not hurt them, please." "The raindrops generally kowtow down.

"I can go into the shop and tie you up without you knowing, or even kill you, and I can kill your son and your daughter without you knowing, so ......" Xu You shook the knife in his hand, "So, if someone asks, what happened tonight, you know how to answer, right?" ”

"I'm not going to say anything, tonight, nothing happened."

"Of course what happened happened, how come nothing happened. I will pass this confession to the police, and when the time comes, they will definitely send someone to ask you about it......" Xu Yu didn't say any more, he looked at the blacksmith shop owner, and waited for him to say it himself.

"Then I'll tell them that I did everything voluntarily."

"Wrong, very wrong. I want you to tell them exactly what happened. Tell them everything you know, remember? Xu Yu slashed in the air, and the blade brought a sharp sound of breaking wind.

"Remembered, remembered."

"Very well, now, close your eyes and sleep." Xu You took out the **, opened the lid and put it in front of the blacksmith shop owner's nose, and in a few seconds, he fell asleep. Xu You untied him, everything returned to its original state, returned to the wall the same way, collected the rope, put it back on the stairs, and took advantage of the night to sneak back to the school.
