Although the two brothers were scared, they remained stubborn and pretended to be dead, not uttering a sound.
But the people who live with them said, "They went out after dinner yesterday and didn't come back until almost 11 o'clock."
"We...we went to Big Head Yellow's place..." the brothers tried to explain, but they trembled even more, their voices shaking.
However, their lies were quickly exposed when Lin Daqiang called Da Tou Huang, who confirmed that the two brothers had not gone over there at all last night.
“Speak honestly to me, or I’ll break your legs!”
Lin Daqiang was so angry that he kicked the two brothers several times. He regretted bringing them to the city. Back in the village, the two brothers were quite hardworking and didn't even play cards. But they turned bad as soon as they came to the city. How was he going to explain this to his aunt and uncle?
But the two brothers still refused to talk, claiming they knew nothing when questioned. They weren't stupid; they knew that the truth would be the law, and they absolutely couldn't confess.
Lu Mo took out paper and pen and placed them in front of the two brothers. "I'll tell you to write it down, and I'll let you go when you're done!"
The brothers' eyes lit up, and they quickly grabbed their pens, genuinely believing that Lu Mo would let them leave.
"Repair!"
"Useful use".
"Temporary" or "temporary".
...
Lu Mo wrote down each word one by one, and the two brothers wrote them down one by one. They couldn't understand why he made them write so many words, which couldn't even form a sentence and wasted paper. Lu Mo made them write one page for each word, and they wrote a total of eight pages.
The others didn't understand Lu Mo's approach either, and they all stared blankly.
Lu Mo arranged the eight sheets of paper in order, forming two vertical lines that, when put together, formed a sentence—
"Undergoing internal maintenance, temporarily out of service."
The two brothers' faces turned pale instantly, and they turned to run away, but Fang Yanming kicked them both to the ground, shouting, "Still not admitting it? The sign at yesterday's crime scene was written by you!"
Lu Mo took out the sign that the two brothers had thrown in the trash can from the car. The words on it were exactly the same as those written by Guang Hui. Even the word "pause" was written incorrectly, as "slay".
With irrefutable evidence, the two brothers collapsed to the ground like dead dogs, filled with regret.
“We borrowed money from loan sharks, and when we didn’t pay it back, they threatened to cut off our hands. We were driven to desperation…”
“No one forced you to gamble, and being chased for debts is not a reason for you to harm others. Who ordered you to do it?” Lu Mo interrupted the two brothers; he didn’t want to hear it at all.
Every murderer has countless reasons to exonerate themselves, and they all feel that they are innocent.
The two brothers shook their heads in unison, "We don't know... That person only called us, we've never met him, we don't even know his last name."
"telephone number?"
"We can't get through. We haven't been able to get through since last night..." The two brothers looked ashen-faced, knowing that all was lost and they were probably going to jail.
The two brothers were filled with anxiety and couldn't help but ask, "Then... how are the two girls?"
I had a nightmare all night. In my dream, Ye Qingqing and the others were covered in blood and turned into vengeful ghosts, coming to take their lives. It scared them to death.
Lu Mo asked a few more questions, but the clues went cold. The person who made the call was very cautious and left no trace. He could only conclude one thing.
“That man isn’t very old, and he has a southern accent, so he must know those two girls.” The two brothers wanted to redeem themselves by helping with the analysis.
"What makes you so sure they know each other?"
The two brothers said, "That man only told us to deal with the girl in red, but the girl in white went too. So he told us to meow like a cat to lure the girl in white away, saying that she loved cats the most, but she needed to pee..."
