Chapter 107
"Then we won't be polite to you." After the village chief Zhou Jianmin put down the bowl, he called his little granddaughter Zhou Li over and asked her to eat the bowl of noodles he brought. Then he went to the kitchen and brought him a bowl of noodles himself.
"Are we going to stay here forever?" Zhao Nan asked Meng Gui in a low voice.
"No, after they finish eating, we will search the whole village together to see if we can find other clues." Meng Gui seemed to have a plan in his mind.
Zhao Nan looked a little uneasy, but she couldn't say anything more. She kept staring at the direction of the village chief Zhou Jianmin, as if she was worried that he would rise up at any time, and then found a hoe from somewhere and killed Liu Ruifeng.
"Relax, it's easy for something to happen if you're too nervous." Lin Jing saw Zhao Nan's uneasiness and whispered to her.
"You can't imagine what I experienced last night." Zhao Nan shook her head, feeling a little powerless. Now, as soon as she recalled those hallucinations and her nightmare that fell into the ancient well, her whole body couldn't help but tremble.
"I've experienced it, and it doesn't matter if I experience it a few more times." Lin Jing comforted Zhao Nan.
At this moment, a shrill scream suddenly came from the square in the central village, which scared Zhao Nan, who was immersed in fear, and almost screamed.
"I'll go over and take a look!" Meng Gui immediately got up and rushed out of the courtyard gate, rushing towards the central square of the village.
Lin Jing hurriedly went out with him.
"We..." Zhao Nan grabbed Liu Ruifeng's arm tightly. She was very hesitant. At this time, should she and Liu Ruifeng follow Meng Gu and Lin Jing to the village center square to take a look? Or should they continue to stay at the village chief's house.
If you rush over, who knows what happened there? Will there be danger? But if you stay here, Meng Gui and Lin Jing will leave. What if the village chief Zhou Jianmin goes crazy and attack Liu Ruifeng with a hoe?
It's really a dilemma!
"What happened?" Village chief Zhou Jianmin put down the noodles bowl that had eaten most of the time and stood up.
"I don't know." Zhao Nan looked at Zhou Jianmin with fear. Why is there no place here that makes people feel safer?
"I'll go and take a look." Village chief Zhou Jianmin walked to the gate of the yard. After thinking about it, he went to the wall of the yard and tried to use something as a weapon, but found that all the hoes and other things in his yard were tied together, which made him wonder.
"Who did it?" Village chief Zhou Jianmin asked Zhao Nan and Liu Ruifeng.
"Let's go!" Seeing that Zhou Jianmin was about to take a hoe, Zhao Nan quickly pulled Liu Ruifeng and ran out of the yard.
Village chief Zhou Jianmin cursed for a few words, but couldn't untie the rope for a while, so he walked to the back of the main hall, found a hoe from there and carried it on his shoulders.
"Village Chief, you have so many hoes at home..." Ma Wentao said to Zhou Jianmin while eating noodles.
"The villagers usually take the broken hoes to me for repair... Please help me take care of Xiaoli, and I will go over and see what happened." Zhou Jianmin told the horse and Ji and the others who were still eating noodles.
"Okay." Ma Wentao nodded to Zhou Jianmin. Although he wanted to know what happened outside, he had to fill his stomach first, right? And now he didn't know what happened in the village, so it would feel safer to stay in the village chief's yard.
Meng Gui and Lin Jing had already arrived at the central square of the village at this time, where they saw the source of the scream just now... Unexpectedly, they were still an acquaintance.
Zhang Chaohui, deputy director of Heiyan Town Police Station, was the one who shouted just now.
"You...why are you here?" Zhang Chaohui looked at Meng Gui and Lin Jing with a surprised expression.
"Why are you here? Didn't you go back to town yesterday?" Lin Jing asked Zhang Chaohui.
"Yes, I went back to the town! There were some cases last night when I was busy until very late before going to bed. This morning, I found that I was not lying at my own house, but on the road outside Gujing Village! And after entering the village, I didn't see a living person for a long time..." Zhang Chaohui explained to Lin Jing.
"So you were feeling a little out of control just now, and you shouted a few times?" Lin Jing understood why he heard the shouting.
"Now I see you, I feel much better. What's going on?" Zhang Chaohui looked confused.
"What I wonder now is why you appeared here." Meng Gui turned around Zhang Chaohui twice, with a thoughtful look on his face.
"Yes... Why am I here? I'm sure I'm not dreaming... Has anyone tied me here? I first put medicine on me, and then tied it here?" Zhang Chaohui's mind was obviously a little confused now.
