Chapter 21: Persuasion
"It's very likely that this kind of thing will happen, Inugami deliberately stopped at the time, as if he deliberately let us see what it looks like, and that's what you shot in the video." Xu Tian said.
Teacher Jin suddenly realized, and then sank his face.
"That's what happened, but fortunately I filmed the whole process, otherwise there would be no evidence." Teacher Jin said.
"There are about a dozen households in the direction of the entrance of the village by the sea, and it is still very difficult to investigate, and it has been so long that we still found out a little late." Xu Tian said.
"Don't worry, fortunately, Yang Qi was running in the direction of the village at that time, which can also show that the dog god should be in the house of the dozen or so families in the direction of the sea." Teacher Jin said.
"But the question now is, we can't just search so rashly, can we? If we provoke the murderer, we will probably become a lever for the villagers to expel us, and if they unite to expel us, there are only four of us, and I am afraid that we will be driven into the sea by then. Xu Tian said.
"Wait for the evening! When they all wake up, according to the method I said before, these guys are people who bully the weak and fear the hard, I have seen this kind of villager a lot, if you want to lead them, you have to set up a deception. Teacher Jin said.
But isn't that a bit contrary to our original intentions? What are we doing this for? Isn't it just to rescue the murderer and hand over the crime to the law? If we set up a scam, it will completely change the taste. Xu Tian said.
"How did you become like Lao Chen now? Has it been with Lao Chen for a long time and has been contaminated? Teacher Jin said.
"Teacher Jin is right." Xiao Ai suddenly walked in.
"Little Ai...... Why are you here? Xu Tian asked.
"Teacher Jin has to go to your heart, now no one can influence us to handle the case, you don't need to bring up the set you think is righteous, maybe this case is only a trap for us to catch the murderer." Xiao Ai said.
"Are you two lecturing me? I know very well what you want to do, the only way to deceive the villagers is to create a kind of public opinion, but in such a closed environment, superstitious public opinion is the best, but we are really against the law to do so. Xu Tian said.
"Who told you you must use superstitious public opinion?" Xiao Ai said.
"Then Xiao Ai has any other way? This is a group of strangers, and it is impossible to theorize clearly by just talking about it. Xu Tian said.
"It's just your own thoughts, do you think you're not good at words, and a few of us are stupid?" Xiao Ai said.
Xu Tian suddenly understood something, yes, there was another person on this island who might be able to help, and Yang Qi was still staying at Lao Li's house at this time.
The three of them returned to Lao Li's house in the direction of the seaside, and Yang Qi, who was sitting alone in the courtyard, kept his back to Lao Li's corpse and looked at his mobile phone.
"Don't you feel panicked with your back to the corpse?" Xiao Ai walked in and said.
"A corpse is safer than a living person." Yang Qi said coldly.
"Can you please do me a favor?" Xiao Ai asked.
"If you have something to say, just say it, but I won't help you run errands, I haven't seen a ship pass by all morning, maybe we really have no way out." Yang Qi said.
"It's not for you to run errands, it's for you to brag, this kind of thing is a piece of cake for you." Xiao Ai said.
"What do you mean? Are you saying I'm good at bragging? Yang Qi stood up and said very unhappily.
"Just for you to brag about yourself, there are no outsiders on the island right now anyway." Xiao Ai said.
"What do you want me to say?" Yang Qi asked.
"This island is something your family is going to develop, right? You treat yourself as the boss behind the scenes, and grant all the villagers' requests. Xiao Ai said.
"What are you kidding, what if I can't cash in after this case is settled? I don't care about the villagers here, this kind of thing will discredit my father, and our family will not agree to the unreasonable demands of the nail household. Yang Qi said.
"No, as long as we spend tonight safely, let's find a way tomorrow, now we are outsiders, the only way to bring the villagers together is to talk to them about the demolition money, otherwise do you have any other way?" Xiao Ai said.
"Anyway, I won't do anything like this kind of thing by promising them all conditions, do you know how much money the villagers here want? I can see a lot of this kind of unreasonable nail household, if I agree to their conditions, this matter will be spread, I am afraid that our family will be threatened by every project in the future, don't you let me find trouble for the family? Yang Qi said.
"It's okay if you don't agree, anyway, you still need the help of Xu Tian and Teacher Jin, don't you want to achieve the purpose of coming to this island? Now that Xu Tian and Teacher Jin are obstructed by the case of the dog god in this village, if you want them to leave this village quickly, the best way is to let them solve the case as soon as possible, otherwise the matter of the two of us will have to be pushed back, and every second of shirk will be more dangerous, and you should know the seriousness of the matter very well in your heart. Xiao Ai said.
Yang Qi no longer shirked, but from Yang Qi's eyes, it could be seen that he was very unhappy with Xiao Ai's threatening language, but there was no way, now as Xiao Ai said, Yang Qi couldn't wait to leave this village immediately, otherwise the thing would be in vain.
In fact, Yang Qi had already waited for the boat that the workers of his own company were on, but Yang Qi did not beckon them to stop, because the matter here was far more important than escape, and Xu Tian could not contact the police in the interior.
"Oh well! But you're going to have to help me find a way to shut the mouths of these villagers, I don't want to get into trouble. Yang Qi said.
"Don't worry, I still have confidence in the language, as long as you cooperate with Teacher Jin, everything will be fine." Xiao Ai said.
Xu Tian and Teacher Jin, who were sitting at the door and listening to the speech inside, finally breathed a sigh of relief, and now it was up to Yang Qi to make the villagers compromise, but Xu Tian and Teacher Jin were also very curious about what Xiao Ai and Yang Qi wanted them to help with.
The current time is 2:40 p.m., and there is still a long time before 8 p.m., and at this time, Xiao Ai and Yang Qi told their story to Xu Tian and Teacher Jin.
……
Time flies in the process of listening to the story, and in the blink of an eye, it is eight o'clock in the evening, and it is very dark in the eastern part of winter, and the four of them have been standing in the dark cold wind for about three hours.
At eight o'clock in the evening, the lights were turned on from house to house, but it was still so dark in a place like the countryside.
