Chapter 17 The Second Statement

There was a face on the shed, and mucus from his mouth was all over the place.

Even though Chen Chen had seen the big world at the Old Ancient Bridge, he couldn't stand such a fright.

He tossed the wicker doll in his hand, and suddenly turned over. This turn seemed to be crushed by something again. After a scream, he saw a small black figure "swoosh" out of his bed.

The door opened and closed, Chen Chen trembled a little, fell to the ground, rolled and crawled, and pulled off the switch cord.

The room lights up.

The black hole in the roof is still there, but the face is gone!
He rushed out of the room with soft legs, but happened to bump into someone!

Looking up, Li Taoqi is here!

Seeing him suddenly appear, Chen Chen was both happy and surprised!

Li Tao's rosy cheeks looked radiant under the light. Not only did he not sleep in the middle of the night, but he was also neatly dressed, with a gray cloth bag on his chest, and a brown fur "big mouse!" in his right hand.

This continuous movement was so loud that it woke up the owner of the house next door. The old man was wearing a padded jacket and opened the door with his eyes narrowed. When he saw what Li Taoqi was holding, he was quite frightened:

"Oh, this, isn't this Huang Daxian, I can't catch it, I can't catch it!"

Hearing the scream of Huang Pizi being pinched in Li Taoqi's hand, after a while, a strange child came out of the kitchen again!

The little boy looked to be five or six years old, wearing a torn padded jacket full of patches, lowered his head, and glanced at Huang Pizi.Seemingly distressed, she begged and said to Li Taoqi:
"Can you not kill it!"

The old man frowned when he heard the words, and asked the child suspiciously:
"Shan baby, what's the matter with you? Why don't you sleep in the middle of the night and get out of the kitchen?"

The child knew that he had made a mistake, and he was a little scared when he squeezed his two little hands together.Staring at Chen and Li Taoqi, he said:

"Xiao Huang is afraid of the cold. Before you came, I let him in the east room to sleep every night."

The old man trembled when he heard this, and was about to raise his hand to hit him when Chen Chen stopped him.

His blood pressure went up from the shock just now, and now he understood, he breathed a sigh of relief and asked:
"Is that you on the roof of my room?"

The child nodded, turned around and pointed behind him and said, "There is a ladder in the kitchen. I climbed along the roof. I was afraid it would bite you. Every time it came, I spit on the hole." remind you!"

After hearing this, Chen Chen wiped his face, feeling both annoyed and funny.

Li Taoqi picked up the yellow skin and said to the old man:
"It's your family's blessing that the child has such a good heart. Don't hit him. I think he will be the most promising in the future in this rural area on the north bank!"

The old man was single, and of course he felt sorry for the child, so he hurriedly asked him to apologize to Chen Chen.

Never expected that such a shock would lead to such a result.

After explaining clearly, it was almost dawn, Li Taoqi put the yellow leather on, and accompanied Chen Chen to rest in the room.

His sudden appearance couldn't be a coincidence, Chen Chen asked angrily:

"Brother Tao Qi, you already knew that, didn't you?"

Li Taoqi lay down with her hands under her head, and said leisurely:
"Didn't I remind you the night you came back from the river?"

"Is that a reminder?" Chen Chen pointed at the wicker doll next to him as he said:
"You let me sleep with the doll, what is the use of this thing?"

Li Taoqi actually smiled a little:
"Aren't you afraid? I'll give you a doll to hold you so that you can sleep more comfortably. There's also Ai Ye in it, which is soothing!"

If it weren't for the fact that he had saved his life, Chen Chen would have liked to ride on him and greet him with a few punches. In the end, he let out a sigh of relief and "thumped" down on the bed.

The weather was cold, so Li Taoqi grabbed the quilt and covered it with Chen Chen.

"The layout of this town has been pointed out by an expert. Being poor is a little poor, but to ward off evil spirits and evil spirits, evil spirits cannot enter. The yellow leather is well repaired. I sensed it from the moment I entered the village! Today I came Grabbing it, I just want to remind it, otherwise I am afraid that he will cultivate in the future, and he will always feel that he is the biggest here!"

Although these words sounded reasonable, Chen Chen knew that, regardless of other things, his fright was completely avoidable, but it might not be a bad thing, so comforting himself should be an exercise in courage!

After tossing around for a long time, the two of them went to bed very late. After dawn, the bearded man came over and opened the door to see Chen Chen and Li Taoqi lying on the bed covered with the same quilt. They were stunned for a moment.

Knowing that he had been misunderstood all along, Chen Chen quickly got up from the bed and explained embarrassingly:

"Li Taoqi came to help last night!"

The bearded man kept nodding, leaned over and sat on the edge of the bed, and patted Chen Chen's shoulder with a smile:

"Brother is someone who has experienced it. If you want to get out of the single gender, you can't get too stuck, I understand!"

Chen Chen didn't sound right, but last night's experience was that of a yellow man and a child on the roof. He couldn't explain a sentence or two, so he had to explain it from the beginning.

In any case, two nights and one day, this trip to the "Gossip Town" is over.

After breakfast and washing up, the three of them got into the car, ready to go home and find another way.

The car had just reached the village, and suddenly saw Mrs. Zhao holding a bamboo basket and leading the child who spat on Chen Chen's face last night blocking the way.

Aunt Zhao first handed over the mountain goods in the basket to apologize for driving them out of the house yesterday, then pondered for a while, touched the child's head and said:
"Shanwa came to me early in the morning and said that you are different from the reporters who usually come to the village. You are good people. I... about my son Zhou Guanfu, I have something to tell you!"

They are not expected to be seen in this village, Aunt Zhao can only stand here and talk.

"My son actually came back secretly a few years ago. He probably told me some things. The time was very short. I don't remember much. I just remember him saying that one year, he was sent by the leader to talk to a family. They were discussing the demolition. The house was very big and there were three people living in it. On the night the contract was signed, I heard that all three people died! My son was inexplicably arrested and sent to the detention center, saying that there was evidence of his crime. , Later, Guan Fu ran away while identifying the scene!"

The people in the car were a little surprised when they heard these words. Aunt Zhao was afraid that people would not believe her, so she cried more and more:

"My son is a good man. He never lied to his mother. He knelt down and swore to me. No one believed his words. I don't know where to file a complaint. If you are a good man, please help. He really didn't kill anyone."

After saying this, Aunt Zhao was so excited that she knelt down for a long time. It wasn't until Chen Chen agreed to help that her mood improved a little.

Having said all that, when they left the village, several people did not speak. In the car, Chen Chen unfolded the last photo Mrs. Zhao gave him, saying that it was a photo of Zhou Guanfu and them after signing the contract. Just for her.

In the photo, there was an uncle in a black leather jacket, a little girl with a bright smile, and the woman in white shoes in Chen Chen's nightmare.

The family of three smiled brightly, and Zhou Guanfu was standing behind them. The atmosphere in the whole photo was harmonious.

While his thoughts were running, Chen Chen suddenly received a call from Niu Jun. On the phone, he said urgently that someone died in the factory again.

After Old Man Zhong was hanged, he was hung in his warm hut with his ankles tied.
