Chapter 123 Sugar

Uncle Tiger squatted on the ground, and he has kept this position for a long time.

Ren Junshuang stood beside him, and there were several guards from the Jin family. Everyone was silent, and no one dared to disturb Uncle Hu's thoughts.

In front of Uncle Hu lay a dead body, covered in scars as if bitten by wild beasts, his face was completely disfigured, but he could vaguely recognize that the dead person was Jin Yan.

"When did it happen? Is there a conclusion?" Uncle Hu finally spoke, his voice was low and he couldn't hear any emotion.

"Master, what happened in the afternoon, Jin Yan was injured all over his body, but the real cause of his death is here," Ren Junshuang said, pointing to Jin Yan's neck, "he received a fatal blow, the neck bone shifted, and the throat was broken , This blow is enough to be fatal, and the scars on his body are a bit superfluous, more like the murderer's way of setting up suspicious positions. As for the murderer..."

Ren Junshuang paused, "There are no clues. There were no witnesses when Jin Yan died, and no one even heard his voice before his death. If it wasn't because of the three-year contract that still required him to act, his death would not have happened." will be discovered."

"It's superfluous?" Uncle Hu had a different opinion. "Could it be that the murderer is cruel by nature and takes pleasure in torturing people? Is anyone staring at Liu Yusheng? What's happening with him?"

"Someone has been watching. After Liu Yusheng and Ming'er came back from climbing the mountain, they may have been tired and slept in the house and never came out."

Uncle Hu frowned, "Who is watching? How can you tell that Liu Yusheng is sleeping?"

"It's Jin Jiu."

Hearing this name, Uncle Hu withdrew all his doubts, but even greater doubts came to his mind.Xiaohe Village is isolated from the rest of the world, and everyone in the village knows everything. Besides Liu Yusheng, an outsider, who else would kill someone?And why did you want to kill Jin Yan?Why did Jin Yan die?A person who can quietly kill Jin Yan has a serious plan, what will he do next?
Uncle Hu faintly felt an aura of imminent rain, which made people uneasy. He stood up and said, "Don't move anything here, and send two people to guard it. In addition, let people check carefully in the village, focusing on investigating everything except Is there any other outsiders besides Liu Yusheng? This matter is strange, I'm going to ask my ancestors."

Ren Junshuang was a little shocked, "Master, is it a bit of a big deal to bother the ancestors? After all, the third grandma is only going to the west, and there..."

"Jun Shuang, since he chose Liu Yusheng, everything has gone wrong. What I want to ask is not only about Jin Yan's death, but more importantly, what he wants to do. Jin Yan is dead when he dies, just one life , my Jin family can afford to die, but if something goes wrong with him, not only the entire Jin family will be wiped out, but the entire empire may be wiped out, do you understand?"

Hearing Uncle Hu's words, Ren Junshuang bowed his head and remained silent for a while, then raised his head and said, "I understand, Uncle Hu, I will arrange the affairs of the village well, even if a mosquito flies in from outside, I will find it."

Following Ren Junshuang's order, Xiaohe Village was in a panic. Every household was investigated openly and secretly. Anyone who visited relatives and friends would be questioned all over, but any outsiders would be picked up and taken away immediately.None of this affected Qi Ximei, she took the fat girl home, boiled hot water and washed her daughter well, she was clean, and put on clean clothes.

"Fatty, let's go, mother will take you to buy some candy."

"I don't eat, mother, I don't like sweets," the fat girl said firmly, "I want to save money and make new shoes for mother."

Qi Ximei looked down at the cloth shoes with her toes leaking out, tears could not stop flowing down again, but she quickly wiped away the tears, and said with a gentle smile: "Fat girl, my mother sold a lot of money in the town this time, enough I’m making a new pair of shoes, look, this is the salt, sole, and pimples bought by my mother, and this, look, look.”

Fat Ya clapped her little hands happily, "That's great, that's great, mother, that's great."

"Good boy, let's go and buy you some candy. What flavor do you want?"

"Mom, I... I don't know." Fat Ya was a little sad, she had forgotten what candy tasted like, and she couldn't even remember the last time she ate candy.

"Fat girl, there are many flavors of candy, such as watermelon, apple, strawberry, etc." Speaking of this, Qi Ximei couldn't help but licked her lips. The last time she ate candy was when she was married to Qin Zekun, "Let's go, Let's go to the consignment point and buy the best one."

There is a consignment store in Xiaohe Village, a small room, dilapidated, the owner is an old man, very old, wearing presbyopic glasses, and none of his dentures belong to him. I heard that he brushes his teeth by taking out his dentures. Come down and wash in water.

Although the consignment outlet is small, there are many kinds of goods, but it is a little more expensive than the town.For example, for a candy wrapped in colorful candy paper, you can buy about [-] candies per catty for three yuan in the town, but you can only buy one for ten cents here.

Through the dirty glass, you can see that there are many candies on the table, such as milk candy, flower candy, fruit candy, cube hard candy and so on.

"Fat girl, which one do you want to eat?"

"Mom, do you really want to buy it?" Fat Ya was still uneasy, she didn't know whether she should eat this candy or not.

"I must buy it." Qi Ximei's voice was firm.

"Then..." Fatty drew her voice longer, "I want...I want this."

Fat Ya pointed her little finger at a flower candy, it was the most inconspicuous one, it was small in size, maybe it had been left for a long time and the color was a bit dull.

Qi Ximei's heart trembled, she gritted her teeth and said to the old man, "This, this, this, one of the same."

The old man looked at Qi Ximei, then looked down at the fat girl. He took out three candies without haste, but he didn't intend to hand them to Qi Ximei.Qi Ximei carefully took out the handkerchief from her pocket, opened it, counted out three ten-cent notes and handed them to the old man, and then got the three candies.

Along the way, the three candies were held tightly in their hands. When they got home and closed the door, the mother and daughter sat on the bed, looking at the three candies, with longing and hope in their eyes.

A big brown candy paper with the word "囍" printed on it, a white milk candy, and a Q-bomb fruit candy, watermelon flavored.

"Hey," Fat Ya giggled, her face pouting.

"Hey," Qi Limei also smirked, her eyebrows stretched, this may be the happiest smile she has had in so many years.

"Fatty, come eat this." Qi Ximei peeled off the biggest candy wrapper and handed it to Fatty.

"No, mother, you eat first."

"Mother doesn't eat, mother doesn't like candy, and mother has eaten it before. When mother married your father, the house was full of candies."

"No, mother, you eat first."

"Fat girl, be obedient, you eat one first, and then eat after you finish your mother's meal, okay?"

The candy exudes a faint sweet fragrance, and the huge temptation finally overcomes everything, "Okay, mother, you must eat it too!" Fat Ya finally happily took it, and couldn't wait to stuff it into her mouth.

"Uh, cough cough...cough!"

"What's wrong with you, fat girl? Choking? Drink your saliva quickly, hurry up, what's wrong with you, fat girl? Don't scare your mother, ah, fat girl, fat girl, no! Fat girl!"

Heart-piercing screams resounded throughout Xiaohe Village.
