16. Dead again

A middle-aged and elderly man banged a gong in his hand, beating hard, his face showing fear, and fell to the ground from time to time. Pen | fun | pavilion www. biquge。 infoThis person's name is Xiang Yuhui, the leader of the mountain group in Furong Town, who is in his sixties. Every morning the population was to be liquidated from house to house, and the town mayor issued an order in case of further deaths.

Xiang Yuhui was the same as usual, when he saw the drunk man lying on the ground, he thought the drunk man was asleep, and when he walked in, it turned out to be the bachelor Xiang Tu.

Pushed it to the sudden, saw that there was no response, and suddenly felt bad, probed his nose, and Xiang Yuhui suddenly fell to the ground in fright, dead! Hurriedly banging the gong, he walked all the way to the mayor's house.

Wang Xiaotou, who was asleep, heard the scream of someone dying with the evil eye, and instantly got up from the bed. Got out, and by this time there were already quite a few people walking out like them.

"Uncle, take a look!"

"Okay."

The two stepped out of the house, saw a lot of people bustling, and ran to the rear, Wang Xiaotou suddenly understood and followed.

Along the way, a lot of people gathered, and the further they went, the more crowds they had, and they didn't know how many alleys they crossed, and the road was blocked and impassable.

"Sorry, borrowed, borrowed." Wang Xiaotou squeezed into the crowd, this alley is indeed a bit weird and very remote. Finally saw Xiang Tu lying on the ground, and many people were talking.

"It can't be the river monster who did it again, right? I wonder who will die next? ”

"Xiang Lao is not a bad bachelor, but he is addicted to alcohol, and his usual bickering is a joke, it must have been done by the river monster."

"Yes."

“…”

Everyone said a word to me, and the conversation was in full swing, but they didn't understand the situation at all, and there was no tension at all.

Wang Xiaotou and the evil eye are not strange, people here have another attitude towards the dead, and different local customs are different. However, the river monster has always been deeply imprinted in everyone's hearts, but they don't want to mention it.

Wang Xiaotou looked at Xiang Tu lying on the ground, and felt a little strange, Xiang Tu's mouth was actually black, as if it had been corroded.

The evil eye saw that Wang Xiaotou wanted to get close to Xiang Tu, and grabbed Wang Xiaotou.

"Little head, what are you doing, don't touch it, otherwise you won't be able to explain it reasonably."

Wang Xiaotou came back to his senses and scratched his head.

At this moment, a voice came from the crowd.

"Everyone, let go, let go!"

Everyone made way of a passage, and a middle-aged man on crutches walked in under the protection of several big men.

Mayor of the town, Chen Guohua, the number one person in Furong Town.

The arrival of the mayor of the town, everyone was suddenly silent, looking at the mayor, the mayor walked to Xiang Tu, looked at it, beckoned behind him, and a middle-aged man walked forward.

"Mayor Mare."

"Chenghai, you go and test it."

The middle-aged man's name is Liu Chenghai, a well-known doctor in the town, who studied forensic medicine in the county, was transferred to the town to see a doctor, at first everyone was very opposed to Western medicine, and with the efforts of Xiang Chenghai, he was in harmony with the masses, and the people here gradually accepted this highly educated Western doctor.

Liu Chenghai walked to Xiang Tu, put on a mask that had turned yellow, his gloves were still intact, and he was white. Stretched out his hand to check Xiang Tu's whole body, took off his clothes, and everyone looked at Liu Chenghai's movements with curious eyes. I touched Xiang Tu's chest, made sure there was no heartbeat, and checked my whole body, and there were no signs of injury.

Everything was inspected, and the last gaze rested on Xiang Tu's mouth, black and purple, and a little corrupt.

"Huh?"

Take out the tweezers and clip some black substance from the mouth and stuff it into a test tube.

"Mayor of the town, the basic situation is understood, there are no injuries, and death has been determined. Basically excludes homicide. ”

Liu Chenghai said confidently, but the mayor frowned, looking at Liu Chenghai with a trace of disgust, but it flashed.

"Well, okay, you guys just carried him back first, everyone is scattered, by the way, there is one more thing, everyone told each other, if there are outsiders in this town recently, they must go to the mayor's office to register, otherwise when the population is checked, there are more people, and it will be unreasonable."

As he spoke, he walked out of the crowd, and two guards brought a wooden frame and carried it away, and the scene fell.

Wang Xiaotou looked at Liu Chenghai, and Liu Chenghai looked at the mayor with a strange gaze, as if he saw some kind of plaything.

After Xiang Tu was carried away, the crowd quickly dispersed, leaving Wang Xiaotou and Evil Eye in the venue, and Wu Shitong also followed at this time.

"Old evil, why did it end so quickly?"

"Hehe, did Lao Wu overdo it last night."

The evil eye squeezed his eyebrows and looked at Wu Shitong, Wu Shitong suddenly blushed and retorted.

"The kid is here, don't say it, hehe."

Wu Shitong looked at Wang Xiaotou and scratched his head, Wang Xiaotou was looked at by the two of them with a black line on his face, and rolled his eyes.

"I said Lao Wu, your mayor's style is good!"

"No, our mayor has to give him this."

Wu Shitong pursed his mouth and stretched out his thumb, while the evil eye wandered around, and Wang Xiaotou looked at the position where Xiang Tu was lying.

"What are you doing?"

Wu Shitong watched the two of them go around, but he didn't listen to himself, and he was a little angry.

"Oh, you say, let's listen."

The evil eye replied immediately, looking at the marks left on the wall, reaching out and touching it, sniffing it.

"Our mayor's name is Chen Guohua, he is not a local, he was sent here from above, and it has been almost two years. Since he came, Furong Town has been well organized, and there was a gangster who occupied the dock and imposed the dock tax, and everyone dared to be angry and dare not speak.

Later, the mayor of the town found out about this and used thunder to clean up the gangsters, and the mayor's momentum was immediately praised by the masses. If this alone is not enough to win the love of all the people, it is that I remember when I first came back here, it rained heavily and flooded.

Hey, have you listened to it again! ”

Seeing that the two of them didn't reply to him, Wu Shitong became angry again, staring at the evil eye fiercely.

Seeing that the evil eye was gesturing on the ground, Wang Xiaotou was also gesturing on the opposite side, and the whole person was lying on the ground, exactly the same as the posture of Xiang Tu before.

"Lao Wu, help me get a jar, fill it with water, why are you still stunned, go."

"Oh, good! Indeed, as soon as you came, you were treated like donkeys. ”

Wu Shitong returned the same way.

Evil Eye picked up the broken wine bottle on the ground, his brow furrowed.

"Uncle, why are they so sloppy in investigating the case, this matter is very strange."

"It's not sloppy, this case can't be investigated, about ghosts and gods, it's useless to check, it will only increase people's panic, and it won't take long for the cause of death of the deceased to be reported, it must be sudden brain death caused by drinking, everyone knows this kind of thing."

"So, what are you still looking for?"

Wang Xiaotou looked at the evil eye with a stunned expression, and was about to stand up, but the evil eye immediately stopped him.

"Don't stand up, lie down, yes, yes, that's it."

At this time, Wu Shitong had already brought the water in the clay pot and sprinkled it on the ground.

"Give. I said, don't..."

"Smack."

The clay pot was broken by the evil eye, and the water flowed in all directions.

"Lao Wu, I'm going to kill you, I told you not to smash my clay pot, why didn't you listen to me, ah!"

"Don't move, back away, back away."

The evil eye put Wu Shitong's words behind him and pushed Wu Shitong, who stepped back with a cute face.
