The second case, the ancient village secretary 06
Shen Zezhi heard a story here, and Ji Ziyue was not so lucky. Shen Zezhi left halfway, and the village chief could only detain Ji Ziyue. There are too many secrets in the village, and any one of them will be in big trouble for outsiders to find out, so everyone looks at Kikoko's eyes more and more unkindly. Noriko became more and more uneasy in his heart, he didn't have a gun on him. When it comes to clashes with these villagers, he doesn't think he's going to be their opponent.
Just as they were about to start their hands on both sides, a young man ran in outside, and he walked up to the village chief and whispered, "Village chief, Shen Zezhi is back." ”
The village chief glanced at Ji Ziyue and said, "Bring him in." The young man answered and went out. The atmosphere in the room suddenly relaxed.
Shen Zezhi put his hands in his pockets and walked leisurely to the village chief's house, and when he first arrived at the village chief's house, he was stopped by several young people. Shen Zezhi looked at the person who started and sighed helplessly. It's him every time, if Shen Zezhi wasn't sure that he didn't know him before, he really thought that he had some inextricable grudge against him.
This young man's name is Jiao Dahong, and he is the nephew of the village chief. He was a few years younger than the village chief's son, but he was completely short-tempered. It's just that he has quite a lot of appeal among the young people in the village, and he is a group of people wherever he goes.
"Hey! Where have you been? Jiao Dahong asked irritablely.
Shen Zezhi didn't want to conflict with him: "I didn't go anywhere." ”
He staggered and wanted to pass past him, but he didn't expect Jiao Dahong to move sideways and block the way again. Shen Zezhi could only stop and look at him.
Jiao Dahong said: "If you don't tell where you're going today, you won't want to leave here." ”
Shen Zezhi was amused by his words, and someone handed him a pillow as soon as he fell asleep. I was thinking about how I could stay. Shen Zezhi wondered if he should say something more to make Jiao Dahong suspicious, so it was logical to stay.
At this moment, another young man ran out of the village chief's house and said, "Brother Da Hong, the village chief let him in." ”
"Shhhh You're in luck! Jiao Dahong reluctantly got out of the way.
Shen Zezhi walked to the courtyard of the village chief's house with regret. Because the old stubborn man had just been killed in the field, and he died a miserable death. So the people in the village are concentrated in the village chief's house. The village chief came out of the house, followed by Ji Ziyue, but Ji Ziyue was followed by a few people, and at first glance, he was looking at Ji Ziyue.
Shen Zezhi frowned, he walked over and said, "Village Chief." ”
The village chief asked with an ugly face, "Where are you going?" This has just happened in our village, and you are still running around? ”
Shen Zezhi was about to say something, when there was a commotion outside. Everyone looked out together, and it turned out that the villagers had cleaned up the corpse of the old stubborn man and came back. The two young men carried something like a stretcher, on which the body of the old stubborn man rested, and the body was covered with a white cloth, but the white cloth was soaked with a lot of blood. Through the white cloth, I knew how miserable the corpse under the sheet should be.
As soon as the body was placed on the ground, there was a cry outside. This is the old stubborn daughter, Yingzi, and son-in-law Dacheng. Yingzi stumbled in, and as soon as she saw the blood-stained cloth on the stretcher on the ground, she stumbled under her feet, but fortunately Dacheng helped her from behind to not fall.
"Daddy?" Yingzi ran to the stretcher and knelt down in a few steps, she uncovered the white cloth with trembling hands, and fainted with a scream after just one look.
There was another commotion in the courtyard, and several women immediately came over to support Yingzi in pinching people, and they were smooth. After being busy for a while, Yingzi woke up leisurely. She couldn't bear to look at her father's horrific corpse anymore and asked the village chief, "Village chief, what's going on?" How could my father die? It's still so ...... dead," she covered her mouth and cried.
The village chief walked over and patted Dacheng on the shoulder and said, "It may be a beast on the mountain, and he is probably defenseless when he goes to work in the field alone." ”
Shen Zezhi was a little surprised in his heart. As for the corpse of the old stubborn man, as long as anyone with a little knowledge knows that it was definitely not done by a wild beast, he doesn't believe that the village chief can't see it. The village chief is deliberately lying. But why did he lie?
Daying is a woman with little knowledge, and the village chief has always been highly respected in the village. So when I heard the village chief say this, I believed it. A trace of doubt flashed in Dacheng's eyes, but he didn't say anything.
Shen Zezhi watched all this silently, and he waited to see how the village chief dealt with this matter.
The village chief said to Daying: "Old stubborn, you can take it back." Let's get ready for the aftermath. The weather is hot, and people can't put it down. ”
Daying said with tears in his eyes: "Then I have to tell my brother first, my father's funeral, my brother must come back." ”
The village chief said, "I'll notify your brother to come back immediately." But I heard that the place where he works is quite far away from us, and the funeral can't wait. It's so hot, you can't let your father's body break. ”
Daying thought about it and agreed. The village chief saw that Daying did what he had arranged, so he began to say something else: "Recently, everyone has been optimistic about their children and the elderly, and those who go to the ground should also pay attention." There is everything in the mountains, so be careful. ”
Seeing that everyone nodded with a concerned face, the village chief was satisfied and let people disperse. But Shen Zezhi and Ji Ziyue stayed. After everyone left, Shen Zezhi and Ji Ziyue followed the village chief back to the house and left.
Ji Ziyue said: "This is a homicide case, don't you all have to call the police?" ”
The village chief snorted coldly: "You know a fart." It's okay to get out of here. Otherwise, it will rain in a few days, and you won't be able to walk. ”
Ji Ziyue was choked by the village chief and stopped talking. It was Shen Zezhi who was surprisingly silent today. The village chief also noticed him, but he couldn't guess Shen Zezhi's thoughts, and he didn't speak rashly.
Shen Zezhi walked to the edge of the chair and sat down, he stretched out his fingers and tapped on the tabletop, and looked up and showed a smile to the village chief: "Village chief, was the old stubborn head bitten to death by a wild beast?" ”
The village chief's old stubbornness was not bitten to death by wild beasts, but this cannot be said. He looked at Shen Zezhi vigilantly, guessing in his heart what Shen Zezhi knew, where did he go during the time he left just now? Did he discover the secrets of the village?
Shen Zezhi smiled: "We all know how he died. Moreover, I also know that if this matter is not handled well, someone will die soon. ”
The village chief's face suddenly became gloomy, and he asked, "What do you mean?" ”
Shen Zezhi put up the score: "It's literal." ”
The village chief's face was ugly to death, and Kiko Yue found that the village chief's hands hanging on both sides were clenched into fists. He knew that the village chief was patient. He was afraid that something bad would happen to Shen Zezhi if he angered the village chief. Unexpectedly, at this time, the village chief suddenly let go of his hand, and he asked, "What do you know?" ”
Shen Zezhi smiled: "Don't worry, I don't know anything you don't want me to know." ”
The village chief's face looked a little better: "What do you want." ”
Shen Zezhi said: "Find out about this matter." ”
The village chief looked at him, how could anyone be so nosy. Isn't it generally possible to hide as far as you can when you see this kind of thing? How can anyone rush to find trouble for themselves.
Shen Zezhi knew what he was thinking when he looked at his expression, he stood up and smiled leisurely, took out his wallet from his clothes pocket, took out a business card, and handed it to the village chief.
The village chief took the business card and looked at it, and raised his eyebrows. Although he has been in the village, it does not mean that he really knows nothing about the outside world. He still understands the business card.
The more Ji Zi saw that the village chief had an unpredictable expression after taking the business card, he was curious to death, and he especially wanted to know what kind of business card Shen Zezhi gave to the village chief.
The village chief put away his business card and said, "What do you mean?" ”
Shen Zezhi said: "You also know my profession, this time I came to write a report in addition to accompanying my brother to sketch." This happened to happen. I can help you get to the bottom of this, and you just have to agree with me to write a report about Jiaojia Village. ”
The village chief said, "But then our village's life will be disturbed. ”
Shen Zezhi: "Don't worry about this, the names of the village and people are pseudonyms, and I won't write down the location of the village in detail." It's just a story to catch people's attention. ”
The village chief thought for a moment and nodded.
Shen Zezhi stretched out his hand, the village chief held his hand, and the two of them showed a ghostly smile.
After the matter was negotiated, Shen Zezhi stayed, and he exchanged the secret of the real cause of the old stubborn man's death to the village chief in exchange for his right to stay in Jiaojia Village.
The village chief looked at Shen Zezhi's back, and had already made up his mind to kill him after the matter was resolved.
