Xiao Liu looked at me for a while and then opened his mouth: "But why should I believe you?"
I said "ha": "It doesn't matter, you don't have to believe it, anyway, everyone clearly saw what happened just now."
"Liu Er, please listen to uncle. Two years ago, your third aunt used to lie on the floor for a while. Do you remember? You were transferred here at that time and even came to recommend us to a big hospital in the city.
See, it was no use going to the hospital. This was something evil. I asked Jiaolong to look after her, and she also gave Xiaotao a better look. So when Xiaotao got married, he specially brought Jiaolong here. Unexpectedly, he met his fourth aunt again.
This time, Jiaolong is really capable. If I hadn’t seen these things with my own eyes before, I wouldn’t believe it.”
My cousin really took great pains to certify me. Seeing that Xiao Liu didn't respond, he continued to speak anxiously: "Liu'er, I didn't lie to you a word. You saw it just now. Those four
What's wrong with my aunt? If Jiaolong hadn't hit her with a pillow, wouldn't she still be biting people there?"
Officer Liu then raised his eyelids and looked at me: "Then how do you want to handle this matter?"
I calmed down my messy emotions first, then looked at Officer Liu and opened his mouth: "This matter is indeed more complicated, because now it involves a wider range of things, like the fourth aunt you mentioned.
It has endangered everyone's life and property safety. Your responsible attitude towards your cousin and these fellow villagers is also very appreciable to me. I don't deny that if the armed police or other armed forces are sent down from above, it will really happen.
With live ammunition, the fourth aunt's matter can also be solved, and it doesn't mean that I have to do it."
"It's just that I think if the people above want to believe this, they probably have to send people down to investigate and collect evidence. In other words, they won't be taken seriously until the trouble really gets big and my fourth aunt bites someone to death. But then there's no need to think about it.
I know that the panic caused by my fourth aunt will definitely be far greater than it is now. This is not a good thing for you. If someone is really killed, I think it will be difficult for you. Tell me, am I right?
?”
Xiao Liu looked directly at me, "I'm asking you how you plan to handle this matter."
"Two ways. The first one is to report it and I can leave right away. This matter has nothing to do with me. The second one is to let me handle the fourth aunt. You don't need to interfere in the process until I catch her and
After she is completely no longer a threat, I will hand her over to you, and you can handle the rest. It can be considered a cooperation between the two of us, what do you think?"
Xiao Liu looked a little confused: "But the commotion has become so big now, even if I don't report it, the higher-ups will definitely come down to investigate."
"I don't know anything about your work, but what I know is that if I can catch the fourth aunt as quickly as possible and eliminate this dangerous hazard, it will not only have no impact on your work, but it will also be the best for the villagers.
Of course, how you want to handle it is how you want to report the fourth aunt to the higher authorities at that time. Whether you really say that the fourth aunt faked the corpse, or whether you say that the fourth aunt is crazy, that is your business."
"Liu'er, just do as Jiaolong said, we really can't afford to wait."
Xiao Liu glanced at his cousin, then looked at me and sighed slightly: "This matter is indeed special. In this way, I will give you one day. If you can't solve this matter tomorrow night, then I will do whatever it takes."
It’s time to report it.”
"Then let's do it like this. My mission is to catch my fourth aunt, and I'll leave the rest to you." After saying that, I turned around and went directly into the yard. This was really good, and it saved me trouble.
Otherwise, if things get serious, I would have to find a way to cover it up myself, which would be very difficult.
The rest of the matter was easy to handle, and it became much more convenient and faster with Xiao Liu's cooperation. Because Erli's mood was too sad, these villagers had a tacit understanding and no one asked her about the chickens that were bitten to death.
No one wants to rub salt into Erli’s wounds. Of course, this is also due to the simple folk customs in the village. According to my cousin, everyone has lived in the same village for three generations.
Well, who doesn't know who it is? This matter can neither be blamed on Erli nor on the fourth aunt, because if the fourth aunt were a normal person alive, she would definitely not be able to do such a thing.
In disguise, I hope that the villagers will be more tolerant and not pursue this matter too much.
Xiao Liu and I drove the villagers in the yard back to their homes, and went from house to house overnight, asking them not to go out at night no matter how loud the noise was in the yard. When nothing happened during the day, the family would send a representative to my cousin's house.
'Meeting in the yard.'
The siren really rang all the way. I heard it in the middle of the night and thought I was arresting some special criminal. But the strange thing is that no dog even barked when I passed by. Apart from this,
There was a shrill sound of sirens, but there was no other movement. The lights were on at the gates of every household's yard, and the roads in some areas were bright. I think this scene would probably be seen at this time except during the New Year's Day.
It’s all thanks to my fourth aunt.
It was already very late at that time. In the whole village, not even the whole family went out to work. As long as there were people at home, not a single household was sleeping peacefully at home. When we entered, the first thing we said was a shocking confession.
Looking at the condition of the fourth aunt, some of the chickens at home that were not bitten were awakened by the sound of the fourth aunt stepping on the roof. When I went to the yard to take a look, even if I did not have close contact with the fourth aunt, they were also awakened by her.
I was shocked by the speeding figure, and I quite admired my fourth aunt. Unknowingly, she had achieved the effect of 'killing the village'.
It is no exaggeration to say that when I returned to my cousin's house, it was already dawn, and representatives from each household also came to my cousin's house one after another. There were many people, and they were crowded. I stood with a big loudspeaker.
On a stool, I told everyone three things to pay attention to. First, don’t go out tonight under any circumstances. Second, take out the garlic at home and hang it on the door frame, because the smell of garlic is strong, whether it is a corpse or a cat.
They are all very annoying, so hanging garlic can at least ensure that the fourth aunt will not come in without fear. The third point is also the most critical point. I hope everyone will not be too nervous and spread rumors. This matter will definitely be solved tonight.
Let everyone rest assured.
One morning, waves of people came over, and I told them over and over again. Finally I couldn't stand it anymore, so I asked Xiao Liu to come up. Xiao Liu couldn't stand it anymore either, so I asked my cousin to come up and wait for everyone to take a turn.
After that, my voice became hoarse, and I didn’t bother to drink water or eat. When I was busy working in the afternoon, I found that the village road was empty and the whole village was quiet. I used to like to sit at the door.
The old people and children who were chatting and playing were all gone. Everyone consciously hung a bunch of garlic at the door of the room, and then closed the door tightly. I shrank my neck, and I felt a sense of desolation in the increasingly muggy day.
"Jiaolong, what else are we going to do?" My cousin's voice was hoarse, and he was probably getting angry.
I turned around and looked at Xiao Liu, who also had dark circles under his eyes: "I want a pot of chicken blood, and I want to get that Xiao Hai from last night..."
"Xiao Hai, what are you doing with Xiao Hai?" Xiao Liu was puzzled: "The child can't help with anything. He was kicked out last night and was so upset."
I exhaled slightly: "He has to be kicked out again tonight. If he can't do it, he has to find someone who can run faster than him." (To be continued)
