Chapter 223: It's you who killed someone, right?
Gu Yuehuai paused, took Su Biaojie's things, and then handed them to Wang Ziyan: "We can't leave now, you should leave here first, go to the county hospital to find Shaoyang and Shaoli, and then give this to Yunyuan."
"Sister Gu!" Wang Ziyan and Lei Yi shouted in unison, both with looks of disbelief on their faces.
Gu Yuehuai waved his hand: "Okay, let's go quickly, don't wait for the people from the Willow Branch Brigade to react."
Lei Yi wanted to say something, but was stopped by Jin Can. She never spoke easily, and her voice was a little hoarse when she spoke: "We can't help Sister Gu and Brother Yan, so let's go first and don't become a burden to them."
Hearing this, Lei Yi and Wang Ziyan smiled bitterly and could only nod helplessly.
The three of them quickly ran towards the direction where Yun Yuan was driving the ox cart, and soon they disappeared from Gu Yuehuai's sight.
Su Biaojie was a little puzzled: "Why don't you leave?"
Gu Yuehuai shook his head. Seeing this, Su Biaojie didn't ask any more questions and said, "Then I'll go over and take a look. Li Weidong is dead, and this matter must be a big deal. If you need any help, come to me!"
After saying that, Su Biaojie left.
Gu Yuehuai watched him walk away, then turned to Yan Shaoyu and said, "Li Weidong's death was bizarre. Once the people from the Liuzhi Brigade report the case, they will inevitably suspect us. Let's not leave for now and stay to investigate."
What if we can't find the murderer and someone frames Yan Shaoyu?
Now that the body has just been discovered, it means that the crime scene has not been destroyed. There is still clues to follow in the investigation. When the police arrive, they may listen to the words of the members of the Liuzhi Brigade and make a hasty decision. It will be too late to find evidence then.
Yan Shaoyu's eyebrows moved, and he pursed his lips and said, "Don't you think it's me?"
Gu Yuehuai looked at him in surprise: "How could it be you? You said you didn't kill him, so you must be serious. There are so many people in Liuzhi Brigade who hate Li Weidong, and we don't know who took advantage of the situation. We have to investigate carefully."
Yan Shaoyu was a little confused: "Picking up... leaks?"
Gu Yuehuai was speechless: "That's right, oh, let's go and see Li Weidong's body."
After she finished speaking, she took Yan Shaoyu to Li Weidong's house.
Yan Shaoyu held Gu Yuehuai's hand, and gently raised his thin lips, as if the moon was revealed through the clouds.
Her trust was so firm that he felt elated.
The two of them came all the way to Li Weidong's home. At this time, his courtyard was surrounded by three layers of enemies inside and outside. The villagers were all peeking out from outside, wanting to know whether Li Weidong was really dead, but they didn't dare to go in.
Gu Yuehuai didn't hesitate at all. He pulled Yan Shaoyu into the crowd and went straight into the house.
As soon as I entered the house, I heard bursts of crying.
Someone shouted at Gu Yuehuai and Yan Shaoyu, "What are you doing here? You are a bunch of ill-intentioned educated youth. You must have killed the Party Secretary! We must report this to the commune and have the police arrest you all!"
Gu Yuehuai sneered and was too lazy to talk nonsense with others.
She walked to the kang, where Li Weidong's body was lying.
At this time, someone rushed up and pushed Gu Yuehuai: "Get out! Get out!"
Yan Shaoyu grabbed the man's wrist, his eyes were fierce and his voice was chilling: "Don't you want your hand anymore?"
The man gasped in pain and cried out loudly, "Oh my God! This is so unfair! The murderer wants to kill me too!"
Gu Yuehuai frowned and said unhappily, "Shut up! I'm a reporter and editor for the Masses Daily. I've learned some investigation stuff and can help you find the murderer. Don't you want to know who killed Li Weidong?"
As soon as she finished speaking, the crying on the other end stopped for a moment.
The tranquility of this moment made Gu Yuehuai's eyes flash slightly, and she turned around to look at the crying person.
It's her!
When he arrived at Li Weidong's house that night, he was being pointed at by Yan Shaoyu with a gun. After hearing the noise, a woman and a child came in. The one kneeling on the ground and crying bitterly was the woman from that night. She looked old and haggard. It was unknown who she was to Li Weidong.
Everyone in the room looked at Gu Yuehuai in unison, and asked suspiciously, "You're a woman, how can you understand these things?"
Gu Yuehuai ignored her and looked at the woman who was crying again after suddenly complaining, and asked, "Who is this?"
Someone said, "The secretary's wife."
Gu Yuehuai was slightly surprised. She remembered that Wang Ziyan and Lei Yi had said that Li Weidong had twelve wives in total. She thought they were all young and beautiful girls, but she didn't expect that there was one who was about the same age as Li Weidong. What was going on?
Yan Shaoyu looked at Li Weidong's body, his thin lips slightly parted, and his tone was clear: "He died of suffocation."
Gu Yuehuai looked at him: "Suffocation?"
So, Li Weidong did not die because he was beaten and disabled and did not receive timely medical treatment. He was indeed killed by someone who took advantage of the opportunity, and this person... Gu Yuehuai looked at Li Weidong's wife.
Everyone in the room was from the Liuzhi Brigade. They had never been to school. They listened to the conversation between Gu Yuehuai and Yan Shaoyu with a confused look on their faces. They immediately asked anxiously, "Death from suffocation? What is death from suffocation?"
Gu Yuehuai curled his lips, his tone intriguing: "He was suffocated to death."
"Suffocated to death? Bullshit! We have all seen that the secretary has injuries on his body, he definitely didn't suffocate to death!"
"They must be talking nonsense here, trying to deceive us! We have already sent someone to report it, the police will be here soon, you just wait here, don't try to run away!"
“…”
The members were filled with righteous indignation and looked at each other with hatred. They obviously did not believe Gu Yuehuai and Yan Shaoyu.
Yan Shaoyu was not angry either, and said calmly: "The face is bruised and swollen, which is an obvious sign of suffocation. When you found his body, he should have looked hideous, with muscle spasms and wet his pants, right?"
After hearing what he said, everyone present was shocked. Ada, who first discovered the body, even asked, "How did you know?!"
For a moment, everyone was speechless, and they all knew that Yan Shaoyu was telling the truth.
Gu Yuehuai then continued, "Li Weidong is an adult male with considerable strength. From what you said, he is usually in good health. Who could kill him quietly under such circumstances?"
"Besides, a person who is suffocating will struggle and even make some noises in order to survive. Does Li Weidong live alone? Oh, I forgot, he has a wife. Then why didn't you find out about his situation, but Ada found out first?"
Gu Yuehuai slowly approached Li Weidong's wife, half-knelt down to look at her, and said in a very soft voice: "It was you who killed someone, wasn't it?"
Li Weidong's wife grabbed the ground with her fingers and continued to cry silently, without answering or refutation.
Ada shook his head in horror: "How is this possible? Aunt Jinfang and the secretary have been married for more than 30 years. How could she kill the secretary? Are you addicted to talking nonsense? It definitely couldn't be Aunt Jinfang!"
Gu Yuehuai let out a long "oh" and said thoughtfully: "So, you are the original wife?"
