Chapter 127 Accident or Man-made
"What happened here? Why are you all around here?"

"Miss Xu, you don't know, the daughter of the Wu family, she, she... hey!" As a woman, Wang Fengnian can empathize with Wu Hongmei's situation. Seeing Wu Hongmei's grief-stricken appearance, she couldn't say that word, she could only Sora left a sigh.

Xu Ruqing followed Wang Fengnian's line of sight and squeezed into the crowded crowd with great effort. Only then did she see clearly what the crowd was watching.

A female corpse lay quietly on the river bank. The female corpse was wet all over, and it seemed that it should have just been salvaged from the water.Because after being soaked in water for a long time, the corpse has become seriously swollen, especially the belly, which is like a round ball, as if it just needs to be touched lightly, and the belly will explode immediately.

Due to the gnawing of microorganisms in the river, the facial tissues of the corpse were damaged to varying degrees, and it was difficult to identify the identity of the deceased. Xu Ruqing felt a little familiar with the lotus green sleeve dress worn by the deceased. Thinking about it carefully, it was not Did Wu Xiulian wear it half a month ago? !
"Aunt Wu, what's going on here? Why did Xiulian become like this?" Xu Ruqing came to the distraught Aunt Wu, knelt down and asked.

Aunt Wu had already been numb from the shock of this sudden encounter, she just kept crying, unable to listen to what Xu Ruqing was asking.

An enthusiastic villager answered for Aunt Wu: "Girl Xiulian drowned to death. She probably stepped on the edge and fell into the river by accident. She was out of breath when she was found."

"I don't think it's that simple. Although Xiulian died of drowning, she didn't necessarily fall into the river by accident. I guess she was pushed into the river by someone." Li Cuihua denied the villager without hesitation. conjecture.

The air was silent for a moment.

Li Cuihua's words were undoubtedly a bomb that exploded in the crowd, attracting everyone's attention to her.

"Sister Li, what do you mean by that?"

"That's right, you can eat indiscriminately, but you can't talk indiscriminately. You said that Xiulian was pushed into the river by someone. What evidence do you have?"

Facing the questioning eyes cast by everyone, Li Cuihua said: "Why are you looking at me? I'm not talking nonsense. I discovered the person. When I fished up the embroidered lotus, she was packed in a sack. What if she How can a dead man put himself in a sack after death if he fell into the water and died?"

After all, Li Cuihua was the first person to discover the body, so she could somewhat guess what happened to Wu Xiulian.When she realized that Wu Xiulian might have been killed, she herself was taken aback.

As soon as these words came out, all the people present were suspicious of who killed Wu Xiulian, they whispered to each other and whispered...

"My God, who has such a great hatred for Wu Xiulian and must put her to death?"

"If the girl of the Wu family was really murdered, who would be the real culprit?" said a woman carrying a bamboo basket.

"Who knows, Wu Xiulian is very arrogant on weekdays, and there are many people in the village who can't understand her, so my uncle treats her as a treasure. Such a daughter is responsible for her retirement, otherwise she would have been punished by those women at the end of the village countless times according to her virtue!"

The person who spoke was Tian Jinfeng, the daughter-in-law of Ma's parents. She had long been displeased with Wu Xiulian's flirtatious style, especially after learning that Ma Tianlun secretly gave Wu's mother and daughter a lot of money, she had nothing good to say about Wu Xiulian.Because of Ma Tianlun's giving Wu Xiulian the money, she had argued with her family countless times, and once the quarrel was so fierce that she almost severed her relationship with her husband, Boss Ma.

It's hard to earn money these days, Ma Tianlun, as a member of the old Ma family, should use the money he earns on the Ma family, no matter what, it won't be the turn of Wu Xiulian, an outsider.However, Wu Xiulian's ability to seduce men is so good that Ma Tianlun has willingly given away a lot of money for their mother and daughter over the years!The vain money he gave out was enough to last for many years for Lao Ma's family!

"Wu Xiulian is a disrespectful person. A few days ago, she was exposed for being pregnant out of wedlock. If you want me to say that she deserves her death, what is an unclean woman doing in this world!" The young woman also echoed.

"Tsk tsk tsk, you're still so vicious when you're dead, keep your word, and be careful that the girl from the Wu family turns into a ghost and troubles you."

"Go to your ancestor's Shi Dahan, you are so damn cursing my old lady here! You have such leisure to worry about a few old women gossiping, why not think more about how your son can get a wife."

"That's right, eat salty radish and don't worry about it!" After Tian Jinfeng finished speaking, he spat at Shi Tianlong, his eyes filled with disdain and disgust.

Shi Tianlong is honest and honest, because of his weak and clumsy personality, he was nicknamed Shi Dahan by the villagers.There were so many people on the other side, and he knew that he couldn't fight with one mouth alone, so after scratching his head in embarrassment, he closed his mouth resentfully.

Xu Ruqing heard every word of the discussion. She frowned slightly and looked at Li Cuihua: "You said that Wu Xiulian was found in a sack... Where is the sack?"

Li Cuihua pointed forward nonchalantly: "Hey, it's right there."

Xu Ruqing looked in the direction Li Cuihua pointed, and indeed saw a soaked sack in the open space not far ahead.

She stepped forward to pick up the sack and examined it carefully.The sack is about five feet four long and two feet three wide. It is an extra-large size in the specifications of the gunny bag. It is generally used to hold rice, corn seeds or silt, and the net capacity can hold at least three to four hundred catties.

She also found some fine chaff at the bottom corner of the sack, which shattered after being soaked in river water.

There are only two women in the Wu family, let alone whether such a big bag can be used at home, even if it is used, two women may not be able to carry three or four hundred catties.

"Until the matter comes to an end, it's best for everyone to keep silent, so as to avoid unnecessary conflicts between neighbors." Xu Ruqing stood up and said to everyone.

"Miss Xu, you have seen a lot. From what you've seen, do you think Wu Xiulian's death was accidental or man-made?"

Xu Ruqing thought for a while, and then said: "I dare not speak nonsense, but judging from the only evidence so far, Sister Li's point of view is not unreasonable."

Although Xu Ruqing didn't say it clearly, everyone could hear that she was acknowledging that Wu Xiulian's death was man-made.

Xu Ruqing's words woke up Wu Hongmei, who was immersed in grief, she wiped away the tears on her face, and looked at her expectantly: "Miss Xu, if my daughter died unexpectedly, I beg you to help me seek justice for her." I'm a country woman, illiterate and illiterate, and I can only count on you."

Xu Ruqing frowned slightly when she heard the words: "I, an outsider, can't interfere with this matter. The only way to find out the truth is to report to the authorities."
