Chapter 37
"My lord, you came to see Lao Chen again." Aunt Wang was a little restrained, and wiped her hands behind her back again.

The yamen servant explained the ins and outs of the matter, and introduced Fang Mu's identity.

Mrs. Wang took a step back and swayed, as if remembering something terrible, her face was clouded with gloom, and she said in embarrassment: "That matter...you, my lord, go in and have a look, oh..."

Saying that, Mrs. Wang got out of the way.

The yamen servant looked back, waved and said, "Little brother, let's go."

Fang Mu didn't go in, but came to Aunt Wang's side and asked, "Have you experienced that too?"

Aunt Wang sighed, with fear in her eyes, and said: "We have all experienced that incident at our age, old Chen is unlucky, his only son just disappeared, and he couldn't even find the whole body."

Speaking of this, Aunt Wang looked sympathetic.

Fang Mu didn't ask any more questions, and bypassed Aunt Wang's wooden house.

After opening the door, there is no musty and sour smell as imagined, and the inside is very clean.

It seems that the county government paid someone to take care of Lao Chen, and Aunt Wang was not lazy.

On the innermost reclining chair, a middle-aged man was lying on it, with a dull expression and dull eyes.

The middle-aged man was neatly dressed and obviously changed his clothes frequently.

He was only middle-aged, but his hair was already stained with silver gray.

Aunt Wang came in and explained: "Old Chen went crazy. He was very crazy at the beginning, but he is no longer like this now. He just sits like this every day and eats as usual, but we have to take care of him."

"Um……"

Fang Mu walked to the reclining chair, but Lao Chen still didn't make any movement, just staring at the roof in a daze.

It looks like he has dementia.

"The headless corpse is your son?" Fang Mu asked straight to the point.

Lao Chen didn't speak, and continued to maintain a dull appearance.

Mrs. Wang pinched the corner of her clothes and whispered, "My lord, it's useless, he won't answer anyone now."

Fang Mu tried to say a few more words, but got nothing.

The yamen servant came up and said: "We also come here often, and we really can't ask anything, and we haven't even found out the people sent from above."

Fang Mu searched around the wooden house, but found nothing, turned around and said, "You guys go out first, I'll ask something."

The yamen servant showed embarrassment, wondering: "Little brother, this is against the rules, he is also related to the murder case back then, I have to..."

"Wu Zuo deals with corpses." Fang Mu opened the wooden box, revealing the exquisite tools inside, and said slowly: "I have a method to try, but it is a little bloody, I just want you to avoid it, if you don't want to You can also take a look, of course you need to find a bucket first.”

"bucket?"

"That's right, it's for vomiting." Fang Mu took out a small knife and gestured, "I'll be responsible for anything that happens. Since you don't want to go out, then watch it."

The yamen servant and Aunt Wang's faces turned pale. They had long heard that the job of being an assistant is not something ordinary people can do, and now they have to take a bucket and prepare to vomit.

Aunt Wang said embarrassingly, "I'm not an official family member, so I'll go out first."

After speaking, he hurried out the door.

"Is there any reason why I can't trust my little brother?" The yamen servant pretended to be very trusting, and went out quickly. Before going out, he found a reason: "I'm waiting for you outside, and my little brother shouldn't be able to do this." Let outsiders know."

Before going out, he closed the door behind him.

After both of them went out, Fang Mu put the knife back into the wooden box, and then looked at the dull old Chen.

"I think you are familiar with this thing, right?" Fang Mu stretched out his right hand, and a blood-stained ball appeared out of thin air.

The moment the blood-stained ball appeared, the dull old Chen moved.

Irregular shaking appeared, Lao Chen's dull eyes turned to the blood-stained ball in Fang Mu's hand, and his mouth kept opening and closing.

"Son... son..."

A weak cry came from Old Chen's mouth, and he stretched out his hand to the blood-stained ball, wanting to touch it.

Fang Mu handed over the blood-stained ball and observed the situation quietly.

"Son..." Old Chen held the blood-stained ball and said stupidly: "I found you, I found you..."

Fang Mu frowned, and had nothing else to say except to repeat.

"Is it you, did you find my son?" After Lao Chen was happy holding the blood-stained ball for a while, Fang Mu said, "Thank you, thank you, you are a good person! You are better than that hypocrite!"

Fang Mu seemed to have discovered something, and asked, "A hypocrite?"

Although Old Chen was stupid, there seemed to be other meanings in what he said.

Old Chen smirked and said: "Yeah, haha, hypocrite, sanctimonious thing, disgusting, disgusting!"

After finishing speaking, Lao Chen held the blood-stained ball again, with a joyful expression on his face.

"Who is that hypocrite you speak of?"

"Son... Father won't let you go."

"How did he harm you?"

"Son, dad still wants to marry you a wife..."

Fang Mu stopped, and Lao Chen seemed to have entered a closed world, only knowing the ball in front of him.

Regarding the follow-up questions, Lao Chen couldn't answer any of them, or he couldn't answer them at all.

Fang Mu stretched out his hand and grabbed the blood-stained ball.

Lao Chen immediately reacted, bit Fang Mu's hand, and shouted: "You want to rob my son, you are a bad person!"

"Snapped!"

Fang Mu used force to bounce Lao Chen away, and the blood-stained ball returned to his hand.

Lao Chen lay on the couch and cried, "Son... son... are you going to leave dad alone again?"

Hearing the noise, the yamen servant and Aunt Wang came in, just in time to see Lao Chen who was crying stupidly.

"This..." The yamen servant was a little surprised.

"The reaction after treatment, it's been too long, so there's nothing wrong with it." Fang Mu said something nonsense, and said to Aunt Wang, "Do you know...a hypocrite?"

The information he got from Old Chen was vague. Aunt Wang had also experienced that incident. Fang Mu wanted to see if there was a breakthrough here.

Aunt Wang asked suspiciously: "A hypocrite? I don't know, what a hypocrite?"

Fang Mu shook his head and said, "Nothing, just a casual question."

Aunt Wang looked puzzled, not knowing why.

On the other side, Lao Chen's mood has slowed down, and he returned to a sluggish look, staring at the roof blankly.

The yamen servant asked: "Do you still need to continue the investigation?"

Fang Mu shook his head, packed his things, and said, "No need."

"As expected, Zhang Zhi County has found a place for the little brother, and it is in the temporary residence of the county government. If the little brother is not in a hurry to return, I will take the little brother to see it." The yamen servant said.

Fang Mu nodded, looked at the stupid old Chen again, and said, "Okay, let's go first."

Right now, apart from the stupid old Chen, I can't find any other clues, so I'll go back and sort it out first.

But before leaving, Fang Mu checked the house thoroughly and left after finding nothing.
