Chapter 36 Lao Guo
Li Lili's mother also pulled her daughter and walked all the way back with us, constantly comforting her daughter on the way: "Let him be alone and be quiet!" ”
When I returned to Li Lili's house, I felt a little heavy, and during the meal, it suddenly occurred to me that the bachelor Han Lao Guo, it seems that this person has nothing to do with these two things, but my intuition tells me that the cleaner the person who is often left in the incident, the more unspeakable it may be.

"Auntie, what do you think of Lao Guo? What does he usually live on? I asked Li Lili's mother.
"That man, what do you say! He doesn't have any big ambitions, he usually relies on two pieces of land, grows some melons, fruits and vegetables, and goes to the town to exchange some money after a while, and he can get by, but I don't know what to do when he gets old, and there is no one to send him to the end of his life. Li Lili's mother said with some sighs, "Originally, there were not many people in our village, and it was a little desolate. ”
I nodded, it seems that Uncle Li has a good relationship with this Lao Guo, maybe Lao Guo knows something. The meal was almost finished, Mo Xin and I packed up the dishes and chopsticks, said goodbye to Li Lili's mother and daughter, and walked to Zhang Hu's house with the dishes and chopsticks.
"Brother Su, I feel that this Xu Qiang seems to be quite dissatisfied with us." Mo Xin said to me as she walked.
"Yes! He had just lost a loved one, and when he saw us strangers, he was always a little repulsed. I nodded.
While talking, he passed by the door of Aunt Zhang's house. Unexpectedly, Xu Qiang came out.
"That, your name is Su Wu, I'm sorry before, just now the police officer told me that when you and your classmates came to my house to steal chickens, no, it was when you took the chickens, I was a little angry, but I didn't expect you to run into the forest overnight in order to find the murderer, and you lost your good friend, I'm really sorry." Xu Qiang said to me apologetically.
"This is all as it should be, don't be too sad, catch the murderer first~ the most important thing, we will do our part." I said with some embarrassment. I muttered in my heart, the policeman shouldn't have told him that the monkey spirit was one of the suspects, otherwise, maybe he wouldn't have said this to me.
"Thank you, I didn't expect to come back for half a year, but it turned out to be like this." Xu Qiang said sadly, waved his hand to me after speaking, and walked back to the house.
I sighed, I want to raise my son but I don't want to treat it, I don't know how many people, and I regret it for the rest of my life.
Mo Xin and I came to Zhang Hu's house, Mo Xin took the dishes and chopsticks to clean, and I told her to let her rest after washing, she didn't have a good rest last night. I looked around, trying to find Lao Guo, but I didn't see it, and when I saw Zhang Hu, he told me that Lao Guo had gone back. I happened to meet the policeman who stayed behind, so I asked him, "Officer, Director Wang, is there any news?" ”
"Not yet." He shook his head and told me.
I found Zhang Zhang and asked him to go to Lao Guo's house with me, and asked Lao Guo about the situation, Lin Xiyu jumped out from the side and said that he wanted to go with him, I asked her to stay here with Mo Xin, after all, there were too many people in the past, and it was not very convenient, so I finally persuaded her. glanced at Wu Gu, who seemed to be asleep in the house, and didn't disturb him. After explaining, Zhang Li and I walked to Lao Guo's house.
I and Zhang Zhang came to Lao Guo's door along the dirt road, I didn't knock on the door immediately, but came with tension, in the field in front of the door, pointed out to Zhang Li, a few messy footprints that suddenly appeared in the morning, I even looked at whether there would be a few more suddenly, but after a closer look, there was no change, the same as before. From the appearance, it should be the same as the one in Aunt Zhang's backyard and the big footprints we found in the forest.
If it is a wild man, it will inevitably be too elusive, appearing in Aunt Zhang's backyard for a while, a long distance away in the forest for a while, and appearing in front of Lao Guo's door for a while, but what is the purpose of appearing here, hey, could it be that the footprints appeared in front of Lao Guo's door and Uncle Li was killed, there is a direct reason. In other words, if Lao Guo hadn't let out this scream at that time, we wouldn't have rushed over, so would Uncle Li not have been killed at that time.
Thinking of this, I hurriedly said to Zhang Li: "Lao Guo may have a problem!" ”
Zhang Zhang listened to the tiger's body and tightened, and the two of us walked quickly to Lao Guo's door and gently knocked on the broken wooden door that was about to fall apart.
"Who? It's coming, it's coming. Lao Guo's somewhat casual voice came.
Tension stood sideways in front of me, and I was half-crouched, ready to pounce forward. The door opened with a "squeak", and I saw Lao Guo empty-handed, looking at me and Zhang Li's expressions of waiting, and he was also stunned.
I saw that there was no danger, so I said to him: "Lao Guo is like this, Director Wang told me to ask you about the situation before, but no one answered you twice, and I thought something was wrong!" As he spoke, he patted Zhang Li and motioned for him to relax.
Lao Guo is also happy: "Oh, that's it, I'm old, and my ears are a little bad." Come, come in and sit! ”
I looked inside, and Lao Guo's adobe house was too small, only a few meters square. Things were scattered in a mess, and the only thing that could sit was a board bed with a lot of dirty old clothes.
"Lao Guo, let's just sit at this door and chat casually." I pointed to him where the door was. This is the first time I have taken a serious look at Lao Guo, who may be in his fifties, basically almost bald, and his body is relatively thin.
"Okay, in front of the door, let's go!" Lao Guo said, first shake off the fart on the dirt slope in front of the door~ sit down.
Zhang Zhang squatted next to him and lit a cigarette, Lao Guo also asked for one, I sat next to him and said to him, "Can you tell me the specific time when this footprint appeared?" ”
"I really don't know exactly when you want to say it, I remember I got up about ten o'clock, I went out and looked at the field twice, there were no footprints, and then I went to the field behind my room, put some water on the vegetables I planted, and picked some vegetables, and when I came back, I saw it." Lao Guo said thoughtfully.
"Did you hear any noises or see any figures at that time?" I continued.
"Probably not," Guo shook his head uncertainly.
"It is said that you have a good personal relationship with Uncle Li! Do you know of someone who might have put him to death? I patted the soot flying over and said tentatively.
"I have a good relationship with him, but it's just about eating and drinking. Who do you say wants to kill him? I don't know, and you can't let me talk nonsense, can you? Lao Guo said to me with a straight look.
"You can tell me what you know, whatever you want, and we will judge the rest." I said to him patiently.
