Zhang Zongde and the village chief exchanged a glance, then looked at Fang Yan, "Are you sure that person, like Lao San, is doing something useful for the country?"
Fang Yan: This...
She didn't even know the person's name, so how could she be sure?
"Yes, we haven't been notified recently that there's a secret operation in Lion's Roar Ridge," the village chief added. "What if that person is a bad guy? Who knows what he's planning to do with these three days?"
"Outside" is the common name people use for the relevant departments in the town.
Because the town is the superior authority of the township, and its office is located in the county seat, people usually refer to it as "outside" in the local dialect.
Fang Yan knew that Zhang Zongde and the village chief's concerns were not unfounded.
But she couldn't produce any evidence to vouch for the stranger, so she could only say, "Uncle, village chief, if you insist on asking me how I determined it, I can only say it was a feeling."
"I feel that he and Zhang Jizhou are the same kind of people."
Zhang Zongde: ...
village head:……
What's the point of this?
If my senses are wrong, a major bad event could occur within three days.
They've wasted three days; they'll regret it terribly later.
However, looking at Fang Yan's unwavering certainty despite having no evidence, it was quite surprising.
Although Zhang Zongde and the village chief had their own concerns, they ultimately chose to trust Fang Yan's intuition.
"Alright, let's send that kid to the Zhang family first, and then send him to the police station three days later."
Zhang Zongde made a decision.
Then he went to see Zhang Weicheng with the village chief and Fang Yan.
“Young man Zhang, if you’re willing to tell me who the person who went with you to rob the third brother’s house today was, I can put in a good word for you with the third brother’s family.”
Zhang Zongde and the village chief naturally asked who the person who escaped was.
Fang Yan told the truth, "He was disguised, and I didn't recognize him. I asked Zhang Weicheng, but he absolutely refused to tell me."
So Zhang Zongde and the village chief thought they'd give it a try; maybe they could get Zhang Weicheng to talk.
However, it is unclear whether it was because Fang Yan had promised to give him three days to consider.
Or is it because of stubbornness?
Or perhaps it's because of loyalty?
No matter what Zhang Zongde and the village chief said, Zhang Weicheng refused to reveal a single word about Fang Yaojin.
Fang Yan had some suspicions about the person who escaped, but she didn't dare to say it out loud.
From Gouzi Village to Dashi Village, given Fang Yan's pace with Xiaoyuzai, it would probably take more than an hour to get there.
I'll skip it today; I'm too tired to move.
Fang Yan thought to herself that after selling all the braised food tomorrow, she would take a tricycle from the county town to Dashi Village to see her adoptive mother and ask about her adoptive cousin.
By the way, her stepmother didn't come to see her today.
The story goes that when she came to Gouzi Village to find her, she fell into a ditch and hit her head.
It seems that the old woman made it all up to lure her to Wangdouwan.
Fang Yan hoped that this was just something her aunt had made up, and that her stepmother was doing well in the Fang family.
However, she still felt a little uneasy.
I still need to go and take a look in person tomorrow.
No matter what methods they used, Zhang Weicheng refused to speak. Zhang Zongde and the village were at a loss for the time being, so they sent someone to call over the Zhang family.
Today is a holiday, and their intention was not to make a big deal out of it, so they asked the people to take the person back first.
This can be considered as fulfilling the bonds of neighborly affection among everyone.
Three days later, the Mid-Autumn Festival will be over, and the deadline given by the stranger will be up. It's not too late to settle the score then.
However, the Zhang family was indeed shameless to the extreme. Zhang Zongde and the village chief calmly told them that Zhang Weicheng had conspired with others to rob Fang Yan of her money.
Judging from their expressions, it seems they don't want to hold Zhang Weicheng accountable?
So, Aunt Zhang, who was used to being shameless, immediately turned around and bit Fang Yan, "Clan Chief Zhang, Village Chief, why do you believe what the Third Brother's family says, that it was my Weicheng who wanted to rob her money?"
Then we can say that she beat Weicheng up like this, and because she doesn't want to pay for his treatment, she deliberately accused Weicheng of trying to steal her money!
Yes, the few dollars in medical expenses that Aunt Zhang had to pay for Qibei's treatment made her chest ache with pain.
Why should Fang Yan's family have to pay for the medical expenses when just one of their animals is injured?
Their precious grandson is so badly injured, yet Fang Yan hasn't paid a single penny.
The Zhang family members were all very resentful, so they let Aunt Zhang throw a tantrum and act shamelessly, openly turning the tables on them.
Fang Yan immediately sneered, treating Aunt Zhang and the shameless Zhang family as if they were invisible, not even bothering to glance at them out of the corner of her eye.
He just stared straight at Zhang Weicheng and said, "How about we take you to the police station right now while Uncle Niu's oxcart is still unloaded?"
"The incident just happened recently, and there's still a lot of evidence at the scene. Whether you and your accomplice robbed me, or I injured you for no reason, I'm sure the police will find out once they investigate."
Although Zhang Weicheng wasn't good at studying, he wasn't so stupid that he couldn't think of anything.
Especially when Fang Yan mentioned "evidence," his eyes, which had been nearly blinded by the pepper spray, widened instantly, revealing a calculating glint.
yes!
Three days later, the evidence at the crime scene had been mostly destroyed by the comings and goings of people. At that point, even if Fang Yan wanted to take him to the police station, it would be too late.
The police will probably have no choice but to release him because they can't find any evidence.
Therefore, under no circumstances should he be sent to the police station now!
"Grandma, if you don't speak, no one will think you're mute or that you don't understand anything. What nonsense are you spouting?"
After figuring it out, the first thing Zhang Weicheng did was to scold Aunt Zhang, "I was jealous of my third aunt's business today, she made so much money, and I wanted to steal her money, so my third aunt sprayed something in my eyes."
"My foot... I hurt myself by lifting the stone; it has nothing to do with my aunt."
Zhang Weicheng knew his family's character very well. He knew that if he didn't explain things clearly, given their greedy and unreasonable nature, they would definitely keep arguing with Fang Yan to the very end.
"Weicheng, you're talking nonsense..."
Zhang's wife, who is Zhang Weicheng's biological mother, thought that the boy had lost his mind and tried to give him a meaningful look.
But Zhang Weicheng interrupted him, "Mom, I'm telling the truth. If you keep arguing like this, my eyes and feet will be ruined!"
He yelled angrily at his own mother.
Since he had said that, no matter how much the Zhang family tried to argue, they couldn't keep up. They could only slink away and carry Zhang Weicheng back home.
Fang Yan was very satisfied with Zhang Weicheng's performance.
However, she didn't see it...
