Return To 1998

the next morning.

Xu Tongdao's family, as well as some relatives and friends, came to the funeral home again to cremate Xu Weixi's bones this morning.

At 10 am, Xu Weixi turned into a box of ashes.

As the eldest son, Tongdao Xu held the urn in his own hands, and was surrounded by relatives and friends, and drove back to his home in the county seat.

Tongdao Xu also thought about whether to go back to his hometown, Xujia Village, to hold a funeral for his father.

But thinking about it carefully, I gave up the idea.

No way, my hometown has been inhabited for a long time, and the house is dirty and unsuitable for funerals.

Coincidentally, his father Xu Weixi had never been to their new home in the county seat.

This time, he should take him to recognize the door, so that his father can't find his way home during the festivals in the future.

When the funeral is over, he will bury his father next to the ancestral grave of his hometown.

...

the same morning.

A city hospital, a ward.

The two police officers who interrogated Bai Meifeng last night began to interrogate Bai Baigen and take notes.

After the treatment in the hospital, although the platinum root is still very weak, but the mind is clear.

Name?

Platinum root.

gender?

Grass! Can't you see this?

Be honest! You can answer whatever I ask you! Bai Jingen, let me remind you that you are now suspected of murder. This is a felony! If you don't cooperate with our investigation, it will only aggravate your crime!

Platinum Root: ...

In fact, the foul language just now was just his habitual foul language. He was used to being in the countryside, and he was used to swearing at people.

Habits are hard to change.

At this time, being reminded so solemnly, he wilted all of a sudden, the crime of homicide...

When he thought that this crime was about to fall on his head,

Rao is because he has always been timid, and it is inevitable that he is depressed at this time.

At this moment, the male policeman asked again, Gender?

Platinum Root: Male, male.

...

The interrogation proceeded steadily.

Soon, we get to the point.

Male police officer: Tell me about the incident that night! The more detailed the better!

Bai Baigen opened his mouth, frowned, hesitated for a while, and then replied in a low mood: That night... I was watching fish in the fish pond, for fear that someone would steal my fish at night.

I have a fish shed by the fish pond where I sleep every night.

That day, that night, I forgot to bring mosquito coils. There were so many mosquitoes in the fish shed that I couldn’t bear the bites.

Having said this, he paused before continuing: As a result, at a sewer, I picked up a big black fish that jumped to the shore...

and many more!

The male police officer interrupted him suddenly, frowning and questioning: What is a water outlet? Also, why did the black fish jump to the shore? Are you sure you are talking about the black fish?

Bai Baigen looked up at him and smiled slightly, You didn't grow up in the countryside, did you? You don't even know what a sewer is?

The male policeman glared at him, Don't talk nonsense! Whatever I ask you, you answer!

Bai Baigen was silent for a few seconds, During that time, it was basically raining every day. The news said that it was a rainstorm that has never happened in a century, and basically everything in the fields was flooded. You know the ditches?

There are many ditches in the fields, all leading to the fish ponds next to them.

There was a lot of rain in those days, and the water in the fields kept flowing into my fish pond day and night. Have you heard of water-sucking fish?

The male policeman hummed with an unpleasant expression.

Bai Baigen: You've heard it, the water in the field flows into my fish pond, and the fish in my fish pond will definitely run into the field, so at that time, I was next to my fish pond. Every outlet was blocked with fishing nets, otherwise all the fish in my pond would have run away.

After a pause, he added: Because the fishing nets blocked the water inlet, the fish couldn't rush into the fields, and those fish would jump up. During that time, I could often pick up fish on the shore of the water outlet.

The point! You said so much about fish. Does it have anything to do with the case that night?

The policeman became impatient.

Platinum Root's tone was stagnant.

Embarrassedly said: Related! Really related.

That night, because I picked up that big black fish, I raised my own fish pond, and the fish got tired of it, so I sent that big black fish to Bai Meifeng.

Male policeman: And then what?

Bai Baigen: Then, then I took a bath with her and changed into the clothes she gave me...

The male policeman raised his brows, What kind of clothes did she bring you? Did you leave them with her before? Or her husband Xu Weidong's?

The reason why he asked this was because the male policeman suddenly remembered Bai Meifeng's confession last night.

Bai Meifeng said that that night, after Bai Jingen took a bath at her place, he was wearing Xu Weidong's clothes.

And it was precisely because that night that Bai Jingen wore Xu Weidong's clothes, so when Xu Weixi came to the door and saw the clothes on Bai Jingen's body, he was angry at that time, and it turned into a quarrel and hands-on.

Shirogane looked at the male and female police officers unexpectedly.

Two seconds later, Bai Jingen said, It's her husband Xu Weidong's.

The male and female police officers looked at each other.

The male policeman asked again: Then what? You keep talking!

Bai Jingen sighed, Later, later, Xu Weixi's idiot suddenly knocked on the door in the middle of the night, Bai Meifeng... She asked me to hide in her room, and she went out to open the door.

I remember that my mouth was just a little dry. I happened to see a glass of water on the bedside table. I reached for the glass and wanted to take two sips. The result... ah! It's all my fault that my hand slipped at the time, or else there would have been such a mess! Hey!

Speaking of which, Shirogane suddenly became very annoyed.

The male policeman immediately asked, Keep talking! Don't talk nonsense that has nothing to do with the case!

Platinum Root: ...

Looking up at the male police officer, Bai Jingen obediently continued to say: Okay! I said it! At that time, my hand slipped, and the water glass fell to the ground and shattered, and followed Xu Weixi's dog and rushed towards it. Come in and beat Lao Tzu! That dog thing is very dark, you don't know, that dog thing even kicked Lao Tzu's crotch with his feet. If Lao Tzu didn't respond, he would put Lao Tzu on the ground and beat him to death. If it wasn't for Bai Meifeng, she grabbed a vase Hit the dog on the head and knock him unconscious. That night, I might have been beaten to death by that dog Xu Weixi.

If that's the case, then that night, it wasn't him who died, but Lao Tzu!

The male and female policemen frowned upon hearing this.

Because Bai Baigen's confession just now was completely different from the confession Bai Meifeng gave them last night.

Bai Meifeng said that Xu Weixi was beaten to death by Bai Jingen in a few strokes, and she didn't do anything at all.

But Bai Jingen's confession just now said that he was almost beaten to death by an angry Xu Weixi that night, and Bai Meifeng rescued him in the end.

A vase knocked Xu Weixi unconscious.

The perpetrator has changed!

Simply put: Bai Meifeng said that Xu Weixi was killed by Bai Jingen.

But Bai Jingen said that Xu Weixi was knocked unconscious by Bai Meifeng with a vase.

Male policeman: Bai Jingen! You said just now that Bai Meifeng just knocked Xu Weixi into a coma. Then how did Xu Weixi die?
