"It's Shen Xiaojie's clothes."

Everyone was surprised that it was Shen Xiaojie's. They turned their attention to Shen Zhizhu. Didn't they grow up together?

"Even if they were not on good terms, they wouldn't have come to someone's house and set it on fire in the middle of the night, right before the college entrance exam. Burning a house is one thing, but there are people living inside. This is definitely murder!"

As he said this, he swallowed his saliva. Everyone in the village was honest, so how could they be involved in anything related to murder? I found it unbelievable. I looked at the half-burned house over there, and then at the rag that Xu Haonan was holding tightly.

A tentative opening.

"Are you sure it's Shen Xiaojie's? Even though not every household has one piece of clothing made from this kind of fabric, it still accounts for half of the households."

The lady nodded and acted decisively.

"You are definitely not seeing things. Look here, isn't there an oil stain? Last time when we were waiting for Xiaozhu and Haonan at the signboard, I saw an oil stain on the edge of Shen Xiaojie's clothes. At that time, I was thinking that he was so dirty and didn't know how to change into clean clothes."

"I never thought that for the sake of the property deed, something that didn't belong to him in the first place, he would dare to do such a crazy thing."

Shen Zhizhu was not surprised that the owner of the rag was Shen Xiaojie, because he was a bad guy and a slacker at work in the factory. He didn't make much money every month and had been spoiled by Li Chunlan since he was a child.

It's not too surprising that he could commit arson.

[I just didn't expect this idiot to be so careless that he didn't even clean up the tail. He's also a fool. ]

Xu Haonan agreed with this. He looked up at the sky. The night was already half over. There was some clue about the matter and he knew who was the culprit. The situation was serious and must not be tolerated.

"Now that things have come to this, let's call the police. We will need you to testify for my husband and me. If you have any more clues, please let me know."

"Don't worry, we are all on your side. Shen Xiaojie is such a jerk. He is capable of anything!"

"Why should I be afraid of this? I have already said it before. They are not raising a son at all. They are raising him like a master. They have turned him into a fool. When he was little, he could still call people. He has become more and more shameless as he grows up."

There was a young sister-in-law who also had a hot temper. She often quarreled with Li Chunlan and neither of them would give in.

"In my opinion, Li Chunlan and Shen Jianjun should be imprisoned for a while. I don't know how to teach a child to become a murderer."

"But Shen Aiqiu is a rare good person in the family. She has a gentle personality and loves to read. Last time I saw her hiding behind a tree with her face covered and crying. When I asked her, I found out that she was beaten by her family. Tsk tsk tsk, she is also a poor child."

what?

Shen Ai Qiu was beaten and hid behind a tree crying. Shen Zhizhu said it was a pity that he was not the first person who saw it. Without him as a punching bag, the family naturally became the target of venting his anger.

I can't say whether I'm happy or relieved, I just feel that everything is fair and just, and no one can escape from it.

Erdan was the only child present. He should have been sleepy and asleep, but he was alert enough to observe everyone's expressions and listen to their conversations.

"Brother, sister, uncle, aunt, let's call the police. Just because Xiaozhu was unwilling to hand over her things, he could set fire to her. If he asks me for something in the future, I won't give it to him. Erdan is so scared."

He hugged Aunt Li's arms tightly and hid his entire head between her arms.

Aunt Li stroked Erdan's head and comforted him.

"Yeah, call the police. Today, I have to thank Shen Xiaojie for having a conscience and not setting my house on fire. Erdan is still young. If this incident doesn't have a result, I'm afraid it will leave a shadow in the child's heart in the future."

Many people also think so. When they think that such a big fire was man-made and the arsonist is in their village, they feel a chill down their spine. They are afraid that one day they will not pay attention and provoke that madman, and he will set their house on fire in the middle of the night.

Shen Zhizhu and Xu Haonan's families are rich. If they get into university in the future, they may not live in the village, and the house will not matter to them. But they are different. Unless something unexpected happens, they will live in the village forever.

If the house burns down, how much money will it cost to rebuild it?

"Call the police. You must call the police. This behavior is too abominable. We must not tolerate it. Xiaozhu Haonan, you have an exam tomorrow. Don't worry about it. Leave the rest to us. We will definitely cooperate with the police to get to the bottom of the matter."

"We will not let this little bastard off just because we are from the same village as him, as he has affected the safety of everyone in the village."

They all have children in their families to a greater or lesser extent, and for the safety of their children, they also have to keep a close eye on this matter.

Shen Zhizhu could feel everyone's enthusiasm and sincerity. Even if others were not trustworthy, Aunt Li was okay, so she nodded.

"Thank you very much. We have an exam tomorrow. Haonan and I really can't spend too much time on this. I'll leave it to you all. Don't rush to question Shen Xiaojie. It's impossible to identify Shen Xiaojie as the one who set the fire with just a piece of rag. You can pretend that you don't know about this. Aunt Li will take the lead in calling the police. Everyone stays in the dark and observes the reaction of Shen Xiaojie's family to see how many other people are involved in this matter, whether they helped to cover up, and whether the other party has dealt with the torn clothes."

"Generally speaking, criminals often return to the scene to check on their achievements. Shen Xiaojie is not very courageous. He might come back to see if we are dead and whether the property deed is left behind."

Shen Zhizhu and Xu Haonan could not participate in person, so Shen Zhizhu could only speak out what he thought, hoping it would be of some help.

Xu Haonan really wanted to rush to Shen Xiaojie right now and question him with the rag in his hand, but just as Ah Zhu said, he could just make excuses. As long as he didn't admit that he had set the fire, there would be no way for him to get the lesson he deserved without solid evidence.

"Okay, don't worry, Auntie will definitely take care of this matter. You can go back and check if your valuables are damaged, including the savings, sewing machine, and bicycle."

"Then I'm going to find the police. Who wants to come with me?"

Three or four uncles were preparing to go together to look for the police. After all, it was dark and the road was long, so a few more people would help to keep them company.

"Find a policeman named Pei. He was the one who handled all the incidents around me. He is a police comrade with a strong sense of justice."
