This voice sounds very familiar to me. Although the emotional fluctuations at this time made the voice a little distorted, I still heard that the person speaking was the little fat father I was still missing before!
But when Monkey and I heard this sound, the smiles on our faces suddenly froze, because in our impression, Xiaopang's father had never spoken like this, nor had he ever made such a speech. What's going on with such a big temper
After being stunned for a few seconds, I immediately rushed into the room. As soon as I entered the room, I saw that Xiaopang was lying on the ground covering his face, looking at his father with red eyes, and The captain standing aside looked at a loss and looked very embarrassed.
The living room of Xiaopang's house is probably only as big as my bedroom at this time. There is only an old-fashioned coffee table with cracked glass, a few wooden stools, and not even a TV. Although the room is small, it is Gives me a feeling of emptiness.
And Xiaopang's father has undergone earth-shaking changes. In his memory, Xiaopang's father always wears expensive-looking clothes. He is neatly dressed from head to toe, giving people an extremely shrewd feeling. , but now the chubby father in front of him is wearing a black old-fashioned cotton jacket and cotton trousers. The clothes look like they haven't been washed for a long time. The oil stains on the surface are reflective. His hair is also extremely disheveled, and his beard is unknown for how long. He has not been shaved, and the overall look is very sloppy. If I had passed him on the road, I probably wouldn't have recognized him as the chubby father I once respected and loved very much.
Of course, none of this is what I care about, because what I just heard at the door and what I see now is not something I could have imagined.
Fatty's father actually slapped Fatty in the face in public because the captain came to his house as a guest, and said some vicious words!
It can be seen that Xiaopang was very aggrieved at this time, but he did not dare to say anything. He had no choice but to lower his head and cover his face and dare not speak. Xiaopang's mother came in after hearing the news. After seeing everything in front of her, she There was not much surprise, he just sighed slightly and whispered to us: "You should go out to play, I'm sorry."
Xiaopang's mother was very aggrieved at this time, but could not express her thoughts. However, immediately after, Xiaopang's father suddenly seemed to be going crazy. He grabbed Xiaopang's mother's collar, took a look at her head and slapped her hard. He slapped him several times and said angrily: "I asked you to pour me tea. It's been so long and the tea hasn't been brought yet. What do I want from you?"
Xiaopang's mother was beaten so hard that she didn't dare to fight back, and Xiaopang was shivering at the side and didn't dare to step forward to stop him. Naturally, Monkey, myself, the captain, and I couldn't just sit idly by and ignore it, so we stepped forward and pulled Xiaopang's father away. But then, Lin Yingxue stepped forward and grabbed the chubby father's wrist, twisted it hard, and pushed the chubby father to the ground.
Little Fatty's father was like a crazy buffalo. He struggled wildly despite his arm being twisted by Lin Yingxue. While struggling, he said angrily: "This is my home. Who allowed you to come in? Get out of here! Get out!"
Lin Yingxue didn't care whether Xiaopang's father's arm was okay or not. She always held his arm firmly and said coldly: "We are the police. Do you know that for your violent behavior just now, I can arrest you and lock you up for a few days?" "
"What's wrong with the police? Do you think I'm afraid of you? Believe it or not, I'll kill your whole family!"
Xiaopang's father became more and more aggressive, completely irritating Lin Yingxue. Xiaopang's mother came forward and cried to dissuade Lin Yingxue from doing this. For the sake of Xiaopang's mother, Lin Yingxue let go of Xiaopang. Father, and Xiaopang also hurriedly pulled us out. We don’t know what happened after that.
After coming out of Xiaopang's house, all of us said nothing and kept walking silently towards the captain's house ahead. Xiaopang also kept his head down and did not dare to look at us. It was obvious that something like this happened at home, and he My mood was not very good, and I was full of low self-esteem.
Although I didn't enter Fatty's bedroom just now, I have a general understanding of the situation at Fatty's house. If the murderer wanted to sneak into Fatty's house, it would be easier than returning to his own home. The courtyard wall of Little Fatty's house is very short. , you can even jump in with one hand, and the door and glass are useless. It is really easy to put the copper coins next to the little fat guy's pillow while he is sleeping. At least the captain can do it easily. .
The only thing I couldn't figure out was why Xiaopang's father had changed so much. Seeing that no one spoke, I took the lead and asked: "Xiaopang, why did uncle do that? Did he encounter something troublesome? "
Before Xiaopang could answer, Monkey sighed and said, "You don't know that since my uncle's business failed, his whole person has undergone earth-shaking changes. I went to Xiaopang's house the day before yesterday, and my uncle didn't give me a good look. , If I hadn’t left in time, I would have been kicked out by my uncle. Alas, I can’t blame him. After all, after such a big experience, anyone else’s temperament would change drastically. "
At this time, Xiaopang rubbed his eyes with red eyes and said: "It doesn't matter, no matter how my dad treats me, he will always be my dad. I believe he will definitely look back and treat me and my mom like he did before. As long as We can get through this difficult time.”
I don’t know why, but when Xiaopang said these words, I seemed to faintly see him actually snickering? When I looked carefully, he still looked sad. Maybe I saw it wrong.
I then asked Xiaopang: "Is uncle so cruel at home every day? Are the injuries on auntie caused by uncle?"
"Yes, but my mother loves my father very much. Even if my father treats her like this, she will still take care of my father's life. I will also work hard in the future to find a wife as virtuous as my mother. "
Indeed, after seeing the situation of Xiaopang’s family with my own eyes, I realized how great Xiaopang’s mother was. From the luxurious life before to the current poverty, she still refused to leave the home and shared the joys and sorrows with her husband and children. In fact, Xiaopang's mother is very beautiful and could have found a better family after divorce, but she didn't do that, which makes me admire her.
We walked to the captain's house together. Because of the lessons learned from Xiaopang's family, I was even a little afraid to enter the captain's house. However, I was overly worried. The captain's parents were still so enthusiastic and nice. After entertaining us, we went to the captain's room together.
When I entered the captain's room, the first thing I did was to observe the difference between his room and when I left it the day before yesterday, to see if I could find irrefutable evidence of his murder yesterday, or some residual blood stains. However, the captain's room It was still so messy and smelled like stinky feet. I didn't notice anything different, and I didn't find any blood stains or anything like that. I even went to where the captain kept his stinky socks and a change of clothes and took a peek. I looked around, but still didn't find anything.
Could it be that after the captain came back last night, he had washed or hid the clothes he wore when he committed the murder
In any case, the person I saw wearing a shroud that night must be the murderer of Brother Dong. As long as we find the bloody clothes he wore when killing people, or the shroud he wore when pretending to be a ghost to scare people, we can directly convict the captain. , end this matter.
Everyone was in a bad mood after Dong Ge's death, and Dong Ge's body is still at the police station, so his family hasn't done anything yet. We sat around the table and drank beer, and no one spoke. After about ten minutes, Monkey raised his head and said to me: "Ji Wen, I heard that you are now a policeman and a high-ranking official. When did it happen? Why didn't you tell us?"
I sighed: "There are still many twists and turns in this experience, and there are also many secrets that cannot be told to others. In short, when the time is right, I will make it clear to you, but now, we must figure out one thing."
Since my identity as a police officer has now been exposed, everyone is willing to listen to me. I took a sip of beer, lit a cigarette, and then continued: "Little Fatty, you sold copper coins several times, and the coins came back on their own. Is it true?"
After hearing this, Xiaopang immediately became excited and stood up and said: "Of course it's true! Why did I lie to you about this? I've told you so many times, why don't you believe it? Besides, Brother Dong is also out now After seeing such a thing, can’t you really see that there is something wrong with this copper coin?”
I immediately calmed Xiaopang's mood and said: "Don't worry, I'm just confirming this matter again. To be honest, the night before New Year's Eve, I also saw the man in a shroud you mentioned appeared at my house in the middle of the night. In front of the bedroom window, I was very scared that day, so I will naturally believe what you say. "
After hearing what I said, Xiaopang's mood gradually calmed down, but he didn't say anything else to me. Instead, he took out his phone and played with himself. I didn't continue to talk about Xiaopang and turned to face him. The captain said: "Captain, you also saw the man wearing the shroud, right? And you dreamed about it many times? In other words, only the monkeys have not encountered such strange things. The remaining few of us, including Brother Dong has encountered such things as curses.”
The monkey was a little puzzled and said: "Ji Wen, are you planning to doubt me?"
I shook my head and said: "Of course not. What I want to say is that because of what happened to a few of us, this incident is completely considered by everyone to be the curse we received after digging for copper coins. Now we must figure it out as soon as possible. Is there really a curse on this strange copper coin? I have a plan, what do you think?"
