After Huo Xiaofang left, the old lady slowly got up and cleaned room by room. The movements seemed unusually slow, and the old lady felt weak all over her body.
Her dry and cloudy eyes dripped with tears as she cleaned again and again. The house was almost cleaned up, she washed her face again, tidyed up her clothes, and locked the door when she went out.
As soon as I walked to the entrance of the alley, I saw Hu Chun standing in front.
The old lady turned and walked to another alley. Hu Chun had mixed emotions in her eyes. Seeing her mother turned around and changed directions, she quickly followed.
"Mom, don't go!" She shouted when there was no one in the alley.
The old man stopped and looked at her: "Take Jiajia well!"
"Mom, don't go!" Hu Chun looked up at the sky, but his eyes were still too small to fill up with a few tears.
At 10:30 in the night, there was no light on the east side of Shicheng. In a certain alley, the man stumblingly stopped in front of the dilapidated tiled house. He slapped the door vigorously, and with a creak, the door opened from the inside.
The drunk man rushed in, the woman who opened the door flashed, and the man fell into a dog and ate shit.
"Hu Chun, a woman who sells ****, dare to close the door to Lao Tzu. See if I won't kill you." His complexion was flushed, and the strong smell of alcohol dispersed in the air.
Hu Chun ignored him, turned around and went to the bedroom.
"You come back to me" Zhang Tao, who got up from the ground, grabbed Hu Chun's hair. Hu Chun seemed to have eyes growing behind his back. He quickly walked into the bedroom room without being caught by his hair.
The old lady came out of her room and looked at Zhang Tao with complicated eyes.
"Mom, go to sleep!" Hu Chun said, and then she closed the door and plugged in the door and fell asleep.
Zhang Tao's snoring sound came from outside the bedroom, and Hu Chun fell asleep peacefully.
The old wall clock on the wall pointed to 11:18, the door of the room opened, and a figure came out of it. The yellow light in the room was refracted through the crack of the door, illuminating a long black shadow on the ground.
One hand holding the bottle stretched to the sleeping Zhang Tao's mouth, the other hand pinched his chin, his mouth opened, the smell of wine spread, and he died of sleep, swallowing in a reflexive throat.
The wine in the bottle was empty, and he took it back with both hands, and the bottle was placed by the door. A few minutes later, there was some noise from the room, and a figure walked out of the room again.
Huo Xiaofang stepped into the gate of the police station and saw Zhang Tao's mother-in-law in the front office. He strode over, "Do you still have something to report?"
The old man looked at him and nodded.
"follow me!"
Huo Xiaofang looked at the calm old man in front of him. He came to visit with the words between his eyes. From the time he found the body, the old man recognized that it was her son-in-law. During the whole process, the old man's reaction was also suspicious in many ways. Hu Chun's reaction also made people feel Suspicious.
Zhu Yu picked up the pen, "Name?"
Old man: "Pan Yun! Sixty-two years old!"
Zhu Yu: "You said that Zhang Tao's sleeping pills were taken by you while he was so drunk?"
Pan Yun nodded, "Yes!"
Zhu Yu: "Because he is so lazy, he often quarrels with your daughter?"
Pan Yun nodded again, "He has been married to Chun for 20 years. The original house was used by him to pay off gambling debts, so we moved to the present place. He spends all day traveling around **, sometimes too. He was sneaking around and getting some money, but the money couldn't hold on to him, and he just went out like eating, drinking, and gambling.
Pity me, Chunchun has to do a few divisions of work a day, and when he comes back, he will have to quarrel with her, and sometimes fight with her. I can't bear it anymore. "
Huo Xiaofang said: "Hu Chun and Zhang Tao have been married for nearly 20 years. You said that he has always been lazy and drunk. Why didn't Hu Chun choose to divorce?"
Pan Yun: "I have left and went to the Civil Affairs Bureau countless times. He has been playing rogue every time and he has not been able to leave."
Huo Xiaofang: "Since I have been here for so many years, why did you choose to kill the killer this time?"
A line of turbid tears flowed from the old man's eyes, and she lifted her wrinkled and callused hands to wipe away the tears.
