Chapter 13: Drunk

"Who is it? Could it be ......" Xu Tian shouted as he looked at the man lying on his stomach under the table.

Before Xu Tian could finish speaking, Lao Lai crawled out from under the table with a bottle of liquor, swayed his body, took another sip of wine, and hiccuped.

"Old ...... Old immortal, you ...... Can't kill me......"

With a pop, the old man fell from the altar, and the bottle cracked on the ground, spilling wine on the ground.

Lao Lai's nose was bleeding, Xu Tian and Teacher Jin hurriedly stepped forward to help Lao Lai up, but they didn't buy it, so Xu Tian and Teacher Jin pushed it aside, picked up the empty wine bottle and walked to the front yard of the ancestral hall.

"Can't let him go like this, he seems to have seen something just now." Xu Tian said.

"Wait, you can't get him to tell the truth, we need to buy him two bottles of good wine." Teacher Jin said.

The two searched for a long time, but they found a small store in the village, and the only bottled wine was only seven yuan a bottle, and the other was a small loose burn.

When Xu Tian and Teacher Jin found their hometown, they were already asleep, but Lai's nose seemed to smell wine, and he came to the side of the wine bottle like a puppy.

"Give me ......" Lao Lai was just about to snatch the wine bottle in Xu Tian's hand, Xu Tian took a step back suddenly, and Lao Lai almost fell off the bed.

"Without further ado, to answer our question, these two bottles of wine are yours." Xu Tian said.

"Say, I will say whatever I know." Lao Lai looked at the wine bottle and said.

"You were on duty when the ancestral hall died a few days ago?" Xu Tian asked.

"Yes, it's all me." Lao Lai said with tired eyes.

"Then did you see anyone enter the ancestral hall on the night of the crime?" Xu Tian asked.

"What day did the crime happen? I don't know! Lao Lai shook his head and said.

"It's the night of the death of everyone except Xiao Wu." Xu Tian asked.

"I ...... I'll think about it......" The old man pretended to think for a while. "I can't remember."

"What were you doing on duty?" Xu Tian asked.

"Sleep, drink, go to the play." Lao Lai said.

"Watching a play? Is there still a singing opera in the ancestral hall at night? Xu Tian asked.

"Yes! The old lady and I watched it for several nights! The singing is not bad, there is a good appearance, much better than the old horse's singing. Lao Lai said.

Xu Tian and Teacher Jin glanced at each other, and sure enough, they asked about something.

"When was it sung?" Xu Tian asked.

"It's the middle of the night when I'm on duty, and I start singing in the middle of the night, which is annoying!" Lao Lai said.

"Do you know anyone who sings?" Xu Tian asked.

"I don't know, that person doesn't speak, he just sings, and he keeps singing until I wake up after dawn." Lao Lai said.

"The old lady? When did she come? Xu Tian asked.

"The old lady doesn't use it! She's been sitting in that little bench in the backyard for years. Lao Lai said.

"I'm asking when did the old lady enter the ancestral hall on the nights of your singing? Or when did you see the old lady. Xu Tian asked.

"Then I don't know, she went in without paying attention, and I didn't look at her." Lao Lai said.

"Why did you lie under the table on the altar in the backyard of the ancestral hall just now?" Xu Tian asked.

"I don't know! It was there when I woke up. Lao Lai said with a look of ignorance.

"So what were you doing before? I remember seeing you go home, why did you go back to the ancestral hall again? Xu Tian asked.

"I didn't go back! I've been sleeping at home, and I've been waking up right there, and it's happened several times. Lao Lai said.

"When did this happen before?" Xu Tian asked.

"Before? Then I have to think about it, I really can't think about it for a while, anyway, it's within a month! Lao Lai said.

"Why did you swear and curse just now? Who are you scolding? Xu Tian asked.

"Old lady! She wanted to kill me in her dreams, but luckily I ran fast. Lao Lai said.

"Okay, give you wine, drink less, you will become a wine Mengzi." Xu Tian said.

After leaving Lao Lai's house, Xu Tian and Teacher Jin almost said in unison, "The old lady really has a problem." ”

"But I'm a little skeptical about why Lao Lai appeared under the table on the altar, if someone got Lao Lai into the ancestral hall, I don't think the villagers standing guard would not be invisible, if Lao Lai was discovered, then the village would have exploded a long time ago." Xu Tian said.

"There are too many abnormal people and things, and I always have a subtle feeling that this thing shouldn't seem to appear in front of us according to such a routine." Teacher Jin said.

"Does Teacher Jin have the answer in his heart?" Xu Tian asked.

"Where is this! If there was an answer, Mr. Xu would know more than we do. Teacher Jin said.

"But Mr. Xu is gone, and Dr. Lin is gone, and these people give us problems every time, and then they are all gone." Xu Tian said.

"You said that to my heart, and I wondered, what if we didn't cooperate with this detective game?" Teacher Jin said.

"That's what I'm thinking about right now, if we don't cooperate with this game, something unexpected is likely to happen, and I really want to see what happens." Xu Tian said.

"Since you are also thinking about this, then we simply don't pursue the case, there is a more important thing for us to do." Teacher Jin said.

"I know what Mr. Jin wants to do, it's evening now, and we should find a place to eat." Xu Tian said.

"Then let's go eat! No, it's going to eat, hahaha......" Teacher Jin laughed.

……

"They seem to have discovered our presence."

"Look at it again, I'm expecting them to do something we didn't expect, these two guys, I'm going to see what tricks they can pull up to."

"But the time is almost up, and you've delayed them for a long time, isn't it a bit unkind if you continue like this?"

"If we stop now, the two of them will go against me again, let's see first, and if it doesn't work this time, let's discuss countermeasures."

"You're conniving at them, before you get noticed, I think it's better to follow the rules, so that we won't be easy to stab Lou Zi, if you accidentally wake them up, I'll see how you end up then."

"You're scared, aren't you? They just put it up yesterday, and you're already very resistant to them! ”
