Lin Xiaowu stopped beating his widowed aunt and said doubtfully:
"Then who is the real murderer?"
"It's me, it's me, I'm the murderer of your mother, just beat me to death! If you beat me to death, you'll lose one life. I beg you, beat me to death, beat me to death..."
Seeing Lin Xiaowu stop, the widowed aunt immediately knelt on the ground and begged.
Her face was soaked with blood, and with the drizzle of rain, she looked particularly miserable!
"Okay, since you keep saying that you killed Aunt Wu, let me ask you, how did you kill her?"
Lin Xiao looked at her widowed aunt with a serious face.
"Yes, I stabbed her in the chest with a knife."
The widow's eyes flickered a little.
She really didn't expect that Lin Xiao would ask her how she killed Aunt Wu.
As soon as this statement came out, everyone was in an uproar!
Apart from the obvious trauma on her forehead and the unnoticeable strangulation mark on her neck, Aunt Wu had no wounds cut by the knife.
But the widowed aunt said that she stabbed Aunt Wu in the chest with a knife?
How can this be!
Everyone looked at the widowed aunt in disbelief, their eyes widening!
"Why lie?"
Lin Xiao approached the widowed aunt and asked.
The widowed aunt looked at Lin Xiao with a pale face and whispered: "You, don't ask! I was the one who killed his aunt!"
Lin Xiao frowned and looked at her widowed aunt with extremely cold eyes.
The widowed aunt trembled violently and lowered her head, not daring to look directly into Lin Xiao's eyes. She was obviously lying.
"Aunt Wu doesn't have a single stab wound on her body, and you still say you're not lying?"
Yu Xilin looked at her widowed aunt indifferently and said coldly.
Hearing Yu Xilin's words, the widow's body trembled even more violently. She lowered her head and did not dare to say a word. She did not know how to answer Yu Xilin's words.
"Aunt Wu, you are not the murderer of Aunt Wu at all, why are you lying?"
Lin Xiao looked at her widowed aunt with regret and asked in a deep voice.
There was despair in the eyes of the widowed aunt, she raised her head and looked at Lin Xiao and said word by word:
"I killed the person, don't ask me any more! The worst thing you can do is trade one life for another!"
After saying that, the widowed aunt took a decisive look at everyone, and suddenly ran towards the charred wall and hit it. With a bang, her brains splattered and blood dripped.
"Auntie Widow!"
Lin Xiao exclaimed, rushed over to hold her widowed aunt in her arms, and covered her wounds with clothes.
But it was too late, the widowed aunt had already stopped breathing.
"The widowed aunt...is dead!"
Lin Xiao looked sadly at her widowed aunt's aging face and said softly.
The onlookers fell into silence again. They did not expect that the widowed aunt actually committed suicide in front of them!
Although they are just melon-eaters, they feel an indescribable sense of depression in their hearts.
"Xiao Wuzi, let's just let this be the case with your mother!"
The village chief glanced at the widow's body and said quietly.
"Why? Lin Da, he hasn't..."
"Let's not talk about whether you have evidence to prove that your mother was killed by Lin Da. Let's just say that the widowed aunt has confessed her crime and even killed her by hitting a wall with her life. Don't dwell on this matter anymore!"
Lin Xiaowu stared at the corpse of his widowed aunt with hatred, clenching his fists and digging his nails deeply into his flesh without feeling any pain.
Seeing this scene, the others were also silent. They all knew the hatred in Lin Xiaowu's heart, but how could one person make the decision on this kind of thing?
"Xiao Wuzi, don't hold yourself back, let your mother be buried as soon as possible!"
The village chief patted Lin Xiaowu on the shoulder and sighed.
Lin Xiaowu raised his head and glanced at the village chief, then at the dead widowed aunt, and finally gritted his teeth and hugged Aunt Wu's body and disappeared into the drizzling night.
"Dad, where is her body?"
Lin Xiaohu pointed at the corpse of his widowed aunt and asked the village chief.
"Since she committed suicide out of fear of crime, let's wait until tomorrow morning and deliver her body to the government office before we make a decision!"
The village chief sighed again.
"Um!"
Lin Xiaohu nodded.
Then the village chief changed his attention and said to the others:
"Don't look at it, please leave immediately!"
"Yes, village chief!"
The villagers nodded in agreement and left here one after another.
In the darkness, a pair of eyes stared at the village chief and others. Those eyes were full of hatred, like poisonous snakes.
Lin Xiao returned home feeling uneasy, and the expression and eyes of her widowed aunt when she was about to die kept appearing in her mind.
She understood why the widowed aunt would rather die to protect Lin Da, but she didn't expect that she would choose to escape in such a way, which was really sad!
If she had known that she would choose to die to atone for her sins, I'm afraid she wouldn't have forced her like that.
"are you OK?"
Yu Xilin brought Lin Xiao a cup of hot tea and asked with concern.
Lin Xiao took the tea cup, took a sip, shook his head and said:
"fine."
Yu Xilin nodded and said nothing more.
Seeing Yu Xilin's hesitant expression, Lin Xiao asked doubtfully:
"Do you... have something to say to me?"
"The widowed aunt is dead, will Lin Daji give up?"
"You mean?"
"Anyway, it's better to be careful!"
Yu Xilin glanced at Lin Xiao worriedly.
Lin Xiao smiled slightly and said:
"Don't worry, I know what's going on."
Even after saying this, Lin Xiao still felt uneasy.
If the widowed aunt dies, Lin Da will definitely come to take revenge.
However, Lin Xiao really didn't know how he would take revenge.
She was so upset that she simply lay down on the simple bed in the main room, covered herself with a quilt and fell asleep.
There are too many things going on these days, and she needs a good sleep to calm down.
Early the next morning, Lin Xiao and Yu Xilin took the breakfast prepared by Lan Lian to the bottom of the abyss where Gao Jin was.
Last night's heavy rain did not slow down the progress of Gao Jin's workshop.
One night, the prototype of the workshop had begun to take shape, and Lin Xiao was dumbfounded.
"Lin Xiao, are you here?"
Gao Jin saw Lin Xiao and Yu Xilin walking in and greeted them quickly.
Lin Xiao walked forward, smiled and nodded in appreciation:
"Well done, Brother Gao!"
Gao Jin shyly scratched his head and said with a smile:
"It's not bad, you have to live up to the title of infrastructure madman, right?"
"You are all hungry, come and have breakfast!"
Lin Xiao and Yu Xilin placed the bamboo basket on a simple table.
When I opened it, I saw a big snow-white steamed bun inside!
"I'll go, big steamed bun!"
Gao Jin couldn't wait to pick up a steamed bun and stuff it into his mouth, chewing it while praising vaguely.
"I asked them to make it specially. Doesn't it taste good?"
"Well, it's delicious! It's been a long time since I've had something like this. I really miss it!"
Gao Jin nodded and said, tears were about to fall.
He turned his head away, looked up at the sky for a while, and then greeted the people lying on the ground resting:
"Brothers, come here quickly, there are big steamed buns to eat!"
When they heard the word "steamed buns", everyone immediately became excited.
