Chapter 55 Someone Killed in Our Village
Xie Manman originally thought that Su Xiangwan was able to return safely because Hou San did not go to find Su Xiangwan as agreed.
So Su Xiangwan didn't wait for him and went down the mountain on her own.
Now it seems that it's entirely because Su Xiangwan has already taken care of Hou San.
And what other solution is there besides killing the other person to prevent them from coming back?
Hou San was very likely killed by Su Xiangwan!
The thought of this possibility made Xie Manman tremble with excitement.
If Su Xiangwan becomes a murderer, she will definitely be shot.
Wouldn't that mean Gu Yanxiao would be single again?
Then I'll use some more tricks.
For example, letting Gu Yanxiao see her body, or even trying to find a way to sleep with him.
She refused to believe that she couldn't marry him.
Disturbed and confused, Tong Liqun turned around and saw Xie Manman standing there trembling, carrying buckets of manure.
He almost thought she was possessed by a ghost, and nearly dropped his old pipe in fright.
Fortunately, it was broad daylight, and the sun was still high in the sky!
Before Tong Liqun could even pull down his pants in fright, he immediately snapped at her, "Xie Manman, what's wrong with you standing there having an epileptic seizure? Hurry up and go pick up some manure!"
Xie Manman glanced at Tong Liqun's dark face, her eyes darting around. She threw down the carrying pole on her shoulder, squatted down, and said weakly, "Oh dear! Secretary, I'm not feeling well, my head is spinning..."
Tong Liqun gritted his teeth and said, "Xie Manman, stop looking for trouble and stop trying to slack off."
Xie Manman looked aggrieved: "Secretary, I'm really not faking it. I suspect that Gu Yanfei must have damaged my brain."
As she spoke, she swayed and fell to the ground.
Tong Liqun took a few steps closer to look at her, trying to tell from her face whether she was lying.
But faced with a face swollen like a pig's head, he really couldn't see anything.
He could only ask in a cold voice, "So what do you want?"
Damn it, Xie Manman is really too much of a troublemaker.
Once this storm has passed, he must find a way to get rid of her.
We can't let this rotten apple spoil the reputation of their Eight Trees Village.
"Secretary, I think I might have really lost my mind. I need to go to town to see a doctor."
Xie Manman knew that now everyone in Bakeshu Village, including the village secretary, was on the Gu family's side.
The only way to bring down Su Xiangwan is to escalate the matter to the town level.
She refused to believe that once she brought the town's police, they would still protect Su Xiangwan.
"Go! Go!"
Tong Liqun was annoyed by her pig-like face, so he waved his hand and turned to leave.
He has a lot on his plate, and it's not worth wasting his time on Xie Manman.
Anyway, it's none of his business if Xie Manman doesn't earn enough work points and doesn't have enough food to eat in the future.
With permission granted, Xie Manman headed to town without hesitation.
Actually, not everything she said was a lie.
I don't know how that brat Gu Yanfei has so much strength. She beat me so badly that I feel pain all over my body.
Right now, the excitement of being able to get rid of Su Xiangwan has made her forget the pain.
When they arrived at the village entrance, they saw Tong Deliang driving an oxcart towards the town.
"Wait...wait...I need to go to town too."
Xie Manman rushed forward and got onto the oxcart.
When Tong Deliang saw her face, which was swollen like a pig's head, he felt a chill run down his spine.
That girl from the Gu family, she really goes all out!
Well done!
He slowly took a puff of his pipe and held out his hand to her: "Three cents."
Xie Manman took out some money from her pocket and gave it to him. It was only three cents. Once she married Gu Yanxiao, would she have to worry about not having money?
Upon arriving in town, Xie Manman went straight to the police station without hesitation.
"I want to report a crime! Someone has been killed in our village!"
...
Upon hearing that someone had died, the town's police station dared not slack off. The station chief personally led two people on a motorcycle to Bakushu Village.
Xie Manman sat in the back of Wu Yong'an's three-wheeled motorcycle, her pig-headed face full of smugness.
Now that the town's police have stepped in, she refuses to believe that the villagers of Bakeshu Village, and that damned Party Secretary Tong, can still protect Su Xiangwan.
The station chief was named Wu Yong'an, and the other two police officers were named Chen Liguo and Qiao Jinfeng.
Upon entering Bakeshu Village, the group headed straight for Gu Yanxiao's house.
The group, all dressed in uniforms, and the roar of two motorcycles, appeared in Bakushu Village, naturally attracting the attention of many people.
Those who were quick-witted naturally went to inform Tong Liqun.
"What did you say? Xie Manman took the police to the Gu family's house?"
Tong Liqun, who was busy arranging this year's autumn harvest and drying, was furious when he heard what the person said: "This dung beetle wearing a mask, this shameless bastard, I shouldn't have fallen for her trick today!"
With that, he threw down the handkerchief in his hand, picked up his old opium pipe, and stormed toward the Gu family's house.
Meanwhile, the Gu family, having received the news, also rushed back.
Su Xiangwan is home alone. What if she opens the door and gets taken advantage of?
The first to arrive was Tong Liqun, who was closest to the Gu family and was the first to receive the news.
When he arrived, he saw Xie Manman and several police officers knocking on the door.
"Su Xiangwan, open the door! Don't think I don't know you're in there! You murderer, open the door now!"
Standing next to several police officers, Xie Manman felt an unprecedented strength in her body.
Even the volume of their voices increased several decibels.
Qiao Jinfeng looked at her arrogant and domineering appearance, a hint of disgust flashing in her eyes.
"Comrade Xie, please watch your attitude. You can't address our comrades like that before the case is confirmed."
Xie Manman didn't take it seriously: "Officer, Su Xiangwan is a murderer. Hou San was definitely killed by her."
"Squeak!"
Just as Xie Manman was about to raise her hand to knock on the door again, the gate was opened from the inside.
Su Xiangwan, still somewhat sleepy, looked at the group and asked, "Xie Manman? What do you want now? Who are you...?"
The following question was naturally directed at Wu Yong'an and his group.
"Comrade Su Xiangwan, hello. We are police officers from the town's police station. We've come to ask you about Hou San."
"Hou San?" Su Xiangwan was taken aback, thinking of Hou San, whom she had knocked unconscious and thrown into the jungle.
But wasn't Hou San already rescued from the wild boar's mouth by Gu Yanxiao?
What do the police want with her?
Does that mean Hou San was bitten by a wild boar, and that's her fault too?
"Do you know Hou San?" Wu Yong'an looked at Su Xiangwan with sharp eyes, not missing the momentary surprise in her eyes.
What is she so surprised about?
Was she surprised that they had approached her?
If that's the case, then what happened today might be...
"Xie Manman! What kind of trouble are you causing now?"
Just then, Tong Liqun's furious voice rang out from behind them.
