Views:

The gambler Su said, "Chuanzi, he is dead."

"Who?" I asked hurriedly with a startled look.

He trembled: "Old...old...the old village chief is dead, leaving...your friend's message on the spot."

my friend

My first thought was that Cheng San and Lin Fan could not help it. After all, the only two of them who can be called my friends in this sirloin village.

However, the gambling ghost Su's words dispelled me. He said: "It's your Captain Peng."

"Captain Peng?" I asked in a trembling voice, and there was already a huge wave in my heart, where would it be delayed, and I quickly let the gambling ghost Su lead the way.

The gambler Su seemed to be very anxious, and led me towards the old village chief's house.

On the way, I asked the gambling ghost Su a few questions. Generally, I asked him how he found the old village chief, and then asked him if the old village chief left anything.

The gambling ghost Su told me that he had visited the old village chief this morning, but the old village chief did not open the door. He thought the old village chief was sleeping and didn’t think much about it. It was about noon. I went to the old village head again, and strangely, this time, the old village head still did not open the door.

This made the gambler Su feel a little uneasy. You must know that usually the old village chief would sit at the gate to bask in the sun and drink tea at noon, even if it is windy or rainy, it never stops.

No, when the gambler Su saw this situation, how could he care so much, he hurriedly kicked the old village chief’s door open, only then found that the old village chief was lying on the ground sideways with a dagger beside him. , There are blood stains on it.

Hearing this, I frowned and asked hurriedly: "You mean that dagger belongs to Captain Peng?"

As he walked forward, he explained to me: "You will know if you go and take a look. I can only tell you that there is a word on the dagger."

I originally wanted to ask him what it was, but considering that the old village chief’s house was not very far away, I didn’t ask it, and I couldn’t help speeding up.

It took about two minutes before the two of us came to the door of the old village chief.

At this time, many people stood in front of the old village chief's house, even Su Xiaoman was among them.

Seeing us coming, the villagers around the door didn't mean to give way at all, until the gambler Su called out, "You one by one, what do you look at, can you find the murderer for the old village chief with just a pair of eyes?"

While talking, he grabbed my arm and walked inside.

When passing by Su Xiaoman, she winked at me, meaning to make me be careful.

I hummed softly, without thinking too much, and followed the gambling ghost Su into the room.

The room is not big, about ten squares, there are two people standing in it, a man and a woman, standing by the bed and joking about something. When they saw me coming, they turned their heads and glanced at me.

Taking advantage of this effort, I found that the man was in his thirties, he was dressed in a dark blue down jacket with a black felt hat on his head, and the woman was also in his thirties, and he was dressed in a bright red down jacket.

It’s worth mentioning that the two people look a bit similar, which made me look a few more times, and heard the gambler Su lowered his voice and explained to me: "Chuanzi, these two are the old village chief. Her twin grandson and granddaughter, one is Guo Zhen and the other is Guo Zhen."

I nodded, stared at the two of them, and was about to walk over. Guo Zhen seemed to feel the sound of my footsteps, stopped the movement on hand, looked at me, and said in a deep voice, "Stand there. ,do not move."

His voice was extremely hoarse, as if his voice had been damaged by something.

I frowned and looked at the gambler Su. The gambler Su smiled awkwardly at me and explained: "Guo Zhen is a bit withdrawn. He doesn't like to communicate with people on weekdays. Wait for him. The corpse of the old village chief, let's go over again."

Well, he said so, what else can I say, so I just found a seat and sat down.

I just sat down here, the gambler Su sat down next to me, perhaps considering that Guo Zhen and Guo Zhen are beside him, and the gambler Su did not speak, so I took this opportunity to look towards the bed. Since Guo Zhen and Guo Zhen were standing by the bed, I saw the old village chief lying on his side through a small gap, while Guo Zhen was helping the old village chief wipe the body.

I retracted my gaze, and I was very puzzled, leaving Captain Peng's dagger on the scene

This is too ridiculous. With Captain Peng's ability, he will never leave any daggers on the scene.

Moreover, this old village chief has passed his Mishou year, even if he wants revenge or something, it is completely unnecessary. After all, Captain Peng is more rational, and it is impossible to poison such an old man.

With this kind of doubt, I couldn't sit still, but because of Guo Zhen, Guo Zhen was beside the bed, so I had to put up with the doubt and sit where I was.

In this way, the gambling ghost Su and I have been watching from the side, Guo Zhen has been busy wiping the corpse of the old village chief, and Guo Zhen has been watching from the side, because the woman is facing me with her back. , I don't know what the woman's expression is.

After about ten minutes, Guo Zhen seemed to be busy. He took a basin of clean water from the bed, turned his head and walked outside.

When passing by me, Guo Zhen stopped, glanced down at me, and said quietly: "My child, you come to my grandfather's funeral, I welcome it, if..."

As he spoke, he glanced at the gambling ghost Su and continued: "If you are here to investigate the cause of death, I advise you to dispel this idea."

"Why?" I looked at him suspiciously. What does Guo Zhen mean

Doesn't he want to know the cause of death of the old village chief.

He glanced at me deeply and said quietly: "Because my grandfather committed suicide and has nothing to do with outsiders."

After that, he ignored me and walked outside.

Looking at his back, I was depressed. What did Guo Zhen mean? Why did he conclude that the old village chief committed suicide

This is not right! Generally, the dead in the family are killed. As a family member, I should really want to find the murderer, but Guo Zhen is different, and it made me dispel that idea.

Just when I was stunned, the gambling ghost Sura pulled me down and said in a low voice: "Chuanzi, don't listen to his nonsense. The old village chief is definitely not suicide. Just last night, I talked to his old man. , His old man does not have the slightest tendency to commit suicide."

I looked at the gambler Su, then at the direction Guo Zhen was leaving, and finally looked at Guo Zhen who was standing, wondering what this woman thought.

Maybe Guo Zhen felt the look in my eyes, turned her head slowly, glanced at me, and said nothing.

I wanted to stand up and walk over to the woman. Gambler Su grabbed me and said in a low voice: "This woman has a very strange personality and moody. It's best not to deal with her.

Now, I feel even more depressed. What are the thoughts of the two descendants of the old village chief

There is also the death of the old village chief. Is there any connection with the four gates? (End of this chapter)
