"The thing is, these two people were wanted by our public security department, but they were very cunning and kept changing locations. Later, the cowherd from Qiancun reported the case and said that he saw two dead bodies on his way home."
Li Huan nodded. So he was a wanted criminal. No wonder he was so vicious. Fortunately, there was the red-headed viper that his wife had put away, otherwise the two of them would have become innocent souls under the knife. No, it was three people, and there was also the baby in his wife's belly.
"As soon as we arrived at the scene, we knew there had been a fight, and the main criminal had obvious marks of being whipped by a bullwhip on his arm. We knew they had run into a tough opponent and suffered a great loss."
Li Huan was shocked when he heard this, he remembered that he had clearly cleaned up the battlefield at that time. The public security comrades were indeed sharp-eyed and could tell at a glance that a fight had taken place. He had no choice but to admit it.
"We originally thought that they died in a fight, but after examination, we found snake bite marks on their bodies, which clearly showed that they were poisoned. We also found traces of pit vipers crawling nearby, so we concluded that they died from snake venom."
"Comrade Li Huan, you have done a great deed this time. You have to know that these two people have killed several people. If they are allowed to go unpunished, I don't know how many people will be worried and frightened."
"No, no, no, it has nothing to do with me. I just did what I had to do. They wanted to rob me of my money and said they would kill me and sell my wife. That's why I went crazy."
"You are crazy for a good reason. If you hadn't gone crazy, you wouldn't have alarmed the poisonous snakes, and they wouldn't have been poisoned to death by them. The law is long and wide, and nothing can escape it."
Li Huan thought about it and realized that it was true. If they had not come to rob him and his wife, he would not have been bitten to death by the poisonous snakes released by his wife. It was really karma.
"So we posted a missing person notice, hoping to learn more details. However, the person who wrote the anonymous letter probably didn't read much, and there were many typos. It took us a long time to find you."
"Oh, can you show me the anonymous letter?"
"this… "
The public security comrades were obviously hesitant. Generally speaking, such letters would not be shown to the parties involved. If any problems were found, they would not be able to escape the responsibility.
"It's okay if you don't look at it. I just want to thank this person. Otherwise, I don't know if this whip can be a meritorious service."
"What you said makes sense. Even without this anonymous letter, we would still be able to find you, but it would take a long time. Let me show it to you. If you know who he is, don't forget to thank him."
The public security comrade took out a brown paper envelope from the drawer, took out a piece of paper from the envelope and handed it to Li Huan.
Li Huan looked at a palm-sized piece of paper with five big characters "Erliuzi" and "Cheng Qiao" written on it. Erliuzi was written as Erniuzi and Cheng Qiao was written as Chenmu.
"Village chief, please look at who wrote this."
Chen Weidang looked at it for a long time but couldn't figure it out. He just saw the two words "沉木" and couldn't help laughing. That person must have imagined the "巧" in Cheng Qiao as the "桥" in a bridge, so wood is also a bridge.
"It's a good thing you're used to being called a second-rate guy, otherwise people wouldn't even think of you as a second-rate guy."
Chen Weidang's words made Li Huan feel a little embarrassed. He didn't expect that being called a second-rate guy would have its benefits. Should he restore the glorious title of second-rate guy in the future
"Can I go now?"
Li Huan was thinking about Cheng Qiao. He had to mail a quilt to his father-in-law today. His wife was pregnant and couldn't use any strength, so he asked anxiously.
"Comrade Li Huan, please wait a moment. Our comrades are writing the record. Once the record is finished, you can just sign it."
Li Huan nodded and looked at the comrade who was writing the notes neatly, stroke by stroke. He couldn't help but curl his lips. His wife wrote well and quickly. If she were there, she would have finished it long ago.
"Comrade, may I ask if Comrade Li Huan has made a contribution this time? Do you have any reward for him and our village?"
Chen Weidang asked cautiously. Although it was Li Huanli's credit, he was from Xiangyang Village and only became aware of it under his leadership. It had a lot to do with him.
"Yes, we reported it when we found the body. They also said there would be a reward. You go back and wait. Once you hand in this report, you will have news."
Chen Weidang's eyes lit up when he heard this. When he saw Li Huan carefully signing his name, he rubbed his hands together excitedly, as if he was the one who had made the contribution.
"Village Chief, I have signed the document. I have something urgent to do and I have to leave first."
"No, you have to wait here for news."
Chen Weidang didn't let Li Huan leave. Before getting definite news, he couldn't sit still even if he went back, so it was better for him to stay here.
Li Huan was anxious. The report had not even left the table yet. How could there be news so soon? Just when he was about to ask Chen Weidang to go home and wait, Cuihua rushed over.
When he saw Li Huan, he shouted anxiously: "You second-rate guy, look at the trouble you have caused. People in the village say you have killed someone, and your wife was beaten by Miao Qing and sent to the hospital."
Li Huan's face changed, and he rushed out of the door as if his feet were equipped with springs. He disappeared in the blink of an eye. Cuihua was stunned. Isn't Li Huan a murderer? How could he run away whenever he wanted
"Wife, please tell me what happened in the village."
"Old Chen, how can a murderer run away? Shouldn't he be locked up?"
"What nonsense are you talking about? This time, the second-rate guy has done a great service to our village. We are waiting for the reward."
Cuihua was a little confused. She didn't know which version was the correct answer. However, she believed her man and quickly told him in detail what happened in the village.
"We have to go back and clarify as soon as possible, otherwise the little cannonball of the Li family won't buy it. If something really happens, it will cause big trouble when the second-rate guy comes back."
Chen Weidang slapped his thigh hard, grimacing in pain, and pulled Cuihua to run towards the village, but he also figured out who wrote the anonymous letter.
Miao Qing is almost twenty years old, but unfortunately she has only grown physically but not mentally. The matter of Chen Chunhua was before her, and she followed suit. She deserves to lose money.
"Old Chen, how can snakes come out to bite people in such a cold weather? And there are two of them. It's too strange."
Cuihua walked and listened to her husband talking about what happened, and she couldn't help feeling strange.
"What's so strange about that? When those two people died, we were only wearing thin coats, and it wasn't as cold as it is today. It's normal to have snakes, but why are there two?"
"Two people can't have two snakes. Where have you ever seen a snake bite two people? It's not a two-headed snake."
"Who knows? Maybe they were a pair of snakes on a blind date and they weren't angry at being disturbed."
"You... I don't talk to fools."
