Most of the police officers quickened their pace and ran over there.

The remaining two police officers stayed behind to escort Wei Dingbang and Zhou Fanghua back to the village and inquire about what had happened.

The female police officer followed Zhou Fanghua.

The male police officer followed Wei Dingbang.

"Name, age, gender." The male police officer was a chubby young man of about twenty-four or twenty-five years old. He was stocky and had a face like a half-risen steamed bun, pale and chubby.

"Wei Dingbang, thirty-five, male."

"Profession."

"Retired from the army, unemployed, temporarily working as a farmer."

"What year did you join the army?"

"44 years."

"What? 54 years?"

"44 years."

"Are you kidding? You said you are 35 years old, so you were born in 1935. How old are you in 1944?

Nine years old... What kind of soldier is he at nine years old?" The male police officer frowned and stared at Wei Dingbang: "Be serious, tell the truth, don't joke."

Wei Dingbang glanced at him, snorted coldly, and said word by word: "The country is broken and the mountains and rivers are shattered, the families are broken and the people are scattered. If we want to keep out the foreign invaders, all the people can be soldiers."

The male police officer widened his eyes in shock and looked at Wei Dingbang again and again. After a while, he whispered, "Well, if you say it is, then it is. Anyway, I am not investigating your identity. I am just asking questions according to the routine.

I really made a note of that for you."

Wei Dingbang did not comment and continued moving forward at a constant speed.

The village is in sight.

Smoke from cooking rises.

Many villagers were running towards this side with farm tools.

There was a little kid following behind with a spatula, saying he wanted to help the adults beat the bad guys.

When the adults threw him down, he ran over and hugged the adults' legs like a pendant, insisting on following.

After the two police officers finished their questioning, they squatted aside and talked.

Zhou Fanghua quickly caught up with him, his brows furrowed and his eyes full of doubt.

"Are you really Wei Dingbang? I don't know why, but I always have a strange feeling that the Wei Dingbang in this village doesn't look like you."
