Chapter 198 The white cat testifies ([-])

"Meow, meow, meow..." Lao Zhangtuo walked gently with graceful steps. If it hadn't called out a few times at the last moment, no one would have seen it.

"Old Zhangtuo, you are finally here. Come on, come here and testify for me. You are a witness to what happened at that time and to the responsibility for Uncle Zhou's death. I rely on you." I stepped forward and said He picked up Lao Zhangtuo.

Suddenly, the whole hall burst into laughter.

"Is this Ye family's weirdo crazy? He actually talks to a cat, hahaha..."

"Is she asking a cat to testify for her? Could this girl be stimulated and have a mental problem?"

Seeing the ridicule of these people, I blushed with shame and anger. Qiao Sheng touched my forehead with his hand, feeling extremely worried.

"Leilei, don't be like this. It's a waste that they don't believe you. Don't they have no evidence to prove that you are the murderer?... You are innocent, we are not afraid... We will not open this private court... …Let’s go home.”

Qiao Sheng said that he wanted to pull me away, but I was unwilling. He took out his hand and said stubbornly: "I didn't do anything wrong. Why should I endure this? Lao Zhangtuo can prove that I am innocent."

As I said this, I walked up to Old Li Zi and his wife. Not only did they not make noises like others, but both of them had frightened looks on their faces. This made me even more sure of my previous guess.

"Uncle Li, Aunt Li, you must know Lao Zhangtuo, right?" I looked at them and asked.

Old Li Zi was a little distracted and murmured in reply: "Which Old Zhang Tuo are you talking about?"

I raised the corners of my mouth, smiled enigmatically, and faced everyone, "I believe some elderly people should know Lao Zhangtuo, the caretaker of the ancestral hall before Lao Lizi and his wife, right? I don't know his real name. It’s not very clear, but I know that he has been working as a guard in this ancestral hall since he retired, and he has been guarding it for 30 years.”

When the elderly people heard what I said, they all showed expressions of enlightenment, and then nodded to each other and said something, probably thinking of the character Lao Zhangtuo.

"After Lao Zhangtuo passed away 25 years ago, Uncle Li and Aunt Li took over the ancestral hall, right?" I turned to ask Lao Lizi and his wife.

Old Li Zi's face became solemn, "His name is Zhang Jiayi, he is my cousin, and he has been a bachelor all his life. After he became seriously ill, he wrote a letter to me and asked me to come to Wenling Village to take over his job. Later, he also We helped him take care of his funeral."

I continued what Lao Lizi said, "Lao Zhangtuo did not leave the ancestral hall after his death. I often saw him when I was a child."

At this point, I was stunned and continued: "You must be thinking in your heart that I am an evil person who has seen ghosts, right?"

The folks ignored me, whispered among themselves, and gave me countless eye rolls.

Helplessly, I continued and said exactly what the old Zhang Tuo said to me back then.

"Back then, Lao Zhang Tuo learned from some of his ghost friends that there was going to be a catastrophe in the ancestral hall. His ghost friends told him to leave as soon as possible, so before he left, he asked me to find a way to persuade you not to hold banquets in the ancestral hall. It’s a pity that because of my soft words and everyone’s distrust, eight living lives were lost in the flames.”

Qiao Sheng stood next to me, dumbfounded, because he knew that I would not lie, especially in front of everyone.
