When Jiang Tangtang said the last sentence, her tone and eyes were full of tentativeness.

Hearing this, the corners of Old Man Deng's smiling mouth immediately flattened, and the expression on his face changed from enthusiasm to confusion.

Staring at Jiang Tangtang, he felt a little overwhelmed.

He wasn't sure how many people knew about this incident back then.

"What do you mean by that? I'm not sure..."

"Uncle Deng, my grandfather and my mother were both murdered. I know you saw it, and I know what you are afraid of."

"I understand you don't want to talk about this, but don't you want to know how I know this?"

Apart from guiding him, Jiang Tangtang couldn't think of any other way to make him tell the truth.

After all, if he didn't speak or denied it flatly, Jiang Tangtang really would have no way to deal with him.

"So how did you know? I didn't see you at the time."

Even though he was a young man, he was frightened when he encountered that situation and then left quietly.

But he left in such a hurry that he didn't notice if anyone else around had seen him.

"I'm telling you, someone else saw you running out in a panic."

"That person told me this because he thought you were the murderer and wanted to get money from me."

"But I've always believed that person wasn't you, so please tell me the truth. Don't let others wrongly accuse you, and don't let my grandfather die in vain."

In order to get the truth, Jiang Tangtang had to use two levels of language arts.

"What? Someone actually wants to frame me. I've been innocent for so many years, how could they do such a thing?"

When Old Man Deng heard this reason, he was so angry that his hair stood up.

Although he hadn't done anything good, he couldn't allow himself to be wrongly accused. Even if it wasn't for himself, he had to tell the truth.

So he looked into Jiang Tangtang's eyes and told the truth.

"Tangtang, I don't know who told you this, but I'm afraid the truth I'm telling you will scare you."

Helping Old Man Deng sit down, Jiang Tangtang looked at him with a smile.

"It's okay, old man. Believe in our country. We will bring the bad guys to justice. Don't worry. I swear I have the ability to protect you!"

He is an important witness and an old friend of my grandfather, so he must be protected.

However, it might be difficult to persuade him to testify.

"Tangtang, you're a good kid, but with your abilities, I'm afraid you can hardly protect yourself, let alone me."

"You can see, I don't even have any children at home. I only have a grandson who is by my side. He is still young and has been sick for many years. If something happens to me, how do you think he will live? Don't blame Uncle Deng..."
