The mayor's office is located on the hillside behind the town. It is a large yard with more than a dozen houses. The three rooms in the middle of the house are the mayor's office. A skinny old man who looks to be in his seventies is sitting behind the desk, staring at us with cold eyes, without any expression on his face, like a shriveled zombie!
The Mei brothers had been untied and were standing by the desk with their heads down. Uncle Quan was sitting on the sofa, crossing his legs, with a look of resentment on his face.
Many curious tourists followed and stood outside the door.
"Mayor..." We've been here for more than ten minutes, and this old man just stared at us without saying anything. I was very puzzled, so I wanted to tell him about this, but he just raised his hand to signal me to shut up. Damn, what does this mean
"I just heard about this from someone. You don't need to say more." The old man said deadly.
Hearing his voice, I felt a chill in my heart in broad daylight. Is this a living person? If I didn't have the ability to distinguish between humans and ghosts, I would have thought it was a zombie ghost!
He turned his head and stared at Mei Lao Er and asked, "Did you just say you were hurting someone?"
Mei Lao Er shuddered as if he had been electrocuted, and said, "No... No."
"Well, harm is harm. People should be honest." The old man narrowed his eyes, revealing two particularly chilling rays of light.
Mei Lao Er wiped the sweat from his forehead and stammered, "That, that is... it was harm. No, but I did it alone." Then he secretly glanced at Mei Lao Da.
The old man nodded and suddenly closed his eyes. Damn, what's the point of being so deep? The second bastard has already admitted it, why doesn't he express his opinion
"Ah" Mei Lao Er suddenly cried out, and fell backwards with a thud. He had a dagger in his hand, and stabbed himself in the chest. Blood flowed out, staining a large area of the floor tiles red. His body twitched a few times, and his eyes rolled back before he became motionless.
Boss Mei looked at his brothers in surprise, but he didn't dare to move like a sculpture.
The four of us looked at each other in shock. He definitely didn't look like he committed suicide, but the fact was that no one had touched him, and his death had nothing to do with anyone else. An inexplicable fear crept into my heart. This clan was too weird. No wonder so many strange things happened in the town, and the police couldn't intervene. The murderer committed suicide in public to apologize. Wouldn't that put an end to it
The old man opened his eyes at this time, looked blankly at Mei Lao Er lying in a pool of blood, sighed and said: "This man committed a heinous crime. Although he committed suicide out of fear of punishment, he cannot be buried in the clan cemetery. Let's throw his body into Wild Wolf Gorge."
“Mayor, this…” Boss Mei cried out in pain.
The old man waved his hand and said, "Let's all go."
"My girlfriend hasn't been found yet, and this matter is not over yet." Mr. Liu rushed in from outside.
The old man's eyes, which had been restrained, suddenly burst into two bright lights, which made people shudder. "Dajiang, take them to the mountain to find out where Dahe has locked up the people?"
“I, this…” Boss Mei looked embarrassed.
The old man suddenly glared, his eyes flashing with coldness, frightening the bastard so much that he shrank his neck and nodded in agreement like a chicken pecking at rice. The old man closed his eyes and said nothing more.
Uncle Quan stood up and shouted, "Everyone, go out. The mayor needs to rest."
Shen Bing seemed to want to argue with the mayor, but as soon as she opened her mouth, I pulled her away and out of the mayor's office. Anyone could see that they had staged a suicide to silence the mayor, letting Mei Lao Er take all the blame and commit suicide, and then Mei Lao Da would find the person, and the matter would be over.
