"That's right, who else could it be if not you!" The thin and cunning-looking man on the other side also responded and shouted.
"This is the third time. Although Li Guojian (Uncle Li) has no evidence to arrest you, all suspicion points to you. Why is it that only your vegetable patch has not been stolen by the vegetable thieves, while some of the vegetables we mainly grow there have been stolen?!"
Hearing this, Chu Yanyan couldn't stand still. He tightened his clothes to hide his presence and walked over. "Brother Xing's vegetable plot wasn't stolen, so doesn't that prove he was framed?"
Hearing the voices of other men coming from Li Hexing's house, the villagers standing at the door were stunned for a moment.
Li Hexing turned his head to look at the person behind him, frowning.
Chu Yanyan gave him a reassuring look.
He came up.
Someone in the crowd recognized Chu Yanyan: "Why is it you, Chu Zhiqing?"
"It's me. I was with Li Hexing yesterday, and I can prove that he didn't steal vegetables last night." Chu Yanyan replied.
"Did you and Li Hexing steal our food together?" someone asked.
Suddenly, they looked at Chu Yanyan with inquiry in their eyes. What he said made a lot of sense.
Seeing the chattering around him again, Li Hexing's eyes became more profound, his face was fierce, and he gritted his teeth and roared: "Everyone, be quiet."
Following Li Hexing's words, they all fell silent and subconsciously stepped back, fear on their faces. "Don't think you can bully us just by relying on your brute force."
"Then don't frame Brother Xing just because you have no evidence." Chu Yanyan said calmly.
"Alright, the educated youth teamed up with the villagers to do evil things. Let's go to Li Guojian and demand justice!"
"Yes, I want some truth!!"
Chu Yanyan looked at the shifty-looking man who was stirring up trouble, and saw that they were about to attack with sticks. "I want to know when your food was first stolen."
"It all started ten days ago," a simple-minded woman answered.
"That's it, didn't I come here ten days ago?" Chu Yanyan asked.
"No."
Chu Yanyan continued, "If there weren't any, then how could I have colluded with Brother Xing to steal vegetables? Moreover, I grow vegetables at home, but I stole from someone else's, and the traces were so obvious. Isn't this just a false accusation?"
As soon as he said this, the whole audience sighed. It made a lot of sense.
"Maybe you heard about someone stealing vegetables and you want to steal them too."
Chu Yanyan narrowed her eyes slightly and looked at the person who repeatedly disrupted everyone's thinking.
When the man was seen by Chu Yanyan, he immediately retreated.
Chu Yanyan pursed her lips and said, "You said it was Brother Xing who stole the vegetables. My explanation is very clear. I don't know about others, but I think you are quite suspicious."
The thin man immediately exploded: "Don't spit blood at me."
"Li An is the only one in the family. There is no way he would steal vegetables from so many people." The villagers nearby defended him.
"What if it was a gang crime?" Chu Yanyan asked.
Everyone was silent, feeling that what Chu Yanyan said made a lot of sense.
Li An panicked when he heard this and picked up a stick to hit Chu Yanyan.
But a big hand held it.
Li Hexing glared at him and threw away the stick.
The stick in Li An's hand fell off, and he took a few steps back, looking at Li Hexing with fear, fearing that he would hit him with the stick.
Chu Yanyan crossed his arms and nodded, "Since everyone has their own reasons and we can't resolve it privately, let's take advantage of the free time we have these days and find Uncle Li to be a witness and catch the vegetable thief."
"What Chu Zhiqing said is a good idea." The villagers nodded and agreed.
Li An heard this and said, "Li Guojian and the others can't solve the problem. Li Hexing is obviously the most suspicious. Why are you still looking for him? If you keep going like this, all your vegetables will be stolen."
"Hey, Li An, I remember your family doesn't grow vegetables there. Why are you joining us?" Someone suddenly realized.
