The next morning, the Song family members went to school or work as usual.
Only Xu Guiying and Song Rongrong remained at home.
After the mother and daughter finished their meal, they planned to go to the police station. Before leaving, Aunt Wang came to borrow a bucket of pickled cabbage, saying that she would return it to Xu Guiying after her family's pickled cabbage was ready.
The sauerkraut at home is stored in the cellar.
Xu Guiying: "Wait a minute, I'll go to the cellar and get it for you."
Aunt Wang: Okay, I still have some soup simmering in the kitchen. I'll go back and get a piece of coal first, so it won't overflow later.
Xu Guiying said "okay".
Since they couldn't leave yet, Xu Guiying asked Song Rongrong to take a sickle to the back field to cut some chives so they could make dumplings for dinner.
Song Rongrong took the knife and left.
Xu Guiying went back to her room to change her clothes, then went to the cellar. She took out the sauerkraut, went into the kitchen, turned over a jar, washed it clean, dried it, and then put the sauerkraut back in.
Just then, a noise came from outside the kitchen.
Xu Guiying thought it was Song Rongrong who had returned.
She was bending over and twisting the cap when she peeked out from under her armpit.
It was a pair of unfamiliar legs.
Xu Guiying's eyes changed, she picked up the kitchen knife and turned around. When her gaze fell on the person at the kitchen door, Xu Guiying's face changed drastically, and her limbs went cold as she stared at Yu Fang at the kitchen door.
Yu Guang stood backlit at the door, holding a knife in his hand, his eyes devoid of warmth as he coldly stared at Xu Guiying.
"You're the one who kept Song Jianmin away from me?"
Without thinking twice, Xu Guiying grabbed the knife and turned to run through the small kitchen door. There was a path outside the door that led directly to the alley outside.
Xu Guiying shouted, "Murder! Help!"
Yu Fang was faster than her, grabbing Xu Guiying by the back of her collar. Xu Guiying's heart trembled, and she swung the kitchen knife at Yu Fang's leg.
"You old woman, you're surprisingly strong."
Yu Fang grabbed Xu Guiying with one hand and was about to stab her with a knife in the other.
Xu Guiying struggled desperately and kept shouting that someone had killed her.
Yu Fang had no choice but to cover her mouth. Xu Guiying was no longer restrained. She kept slashing backward with one hand and rubbing backward with the other, trying to grab Yu Fang's lower body.
Xu Guiying was stabbed several times in the hand, and Yu Fang didn't fare any better; her thigh was slashed and covered in blood. Yu Fang cursed, "You old hag, I'll skin you alive!"
Xu Guiying's eyes widened; she never imagined that Yu Fang was actually...
No matter how strong Xu Guiying was, she was no match for a grown man. Yu Fang hooked her foot around Xu Guiying's leg, tripped her, and then kicked the small kitchen door shut.
Xu Guiying rolled over, got up, and started swinging the kitchen knife around.
Yu Fang held a small knife in her hand, and he dared not step forward for the time being, so the two remained in a stalemate.
Yu Fang squinted slightly, "I didn't expect you to be so capable."
"Leave now, and I won't call the police." Xu Guiying's face was deathly pale.
Damn it, who would have thought that Yu Fang was the murderer in the scalp case!
What kind of trouble has Song Jianmin gotten himself into?!
With the kitchen door blocked, Xu Guiying could only exit from the back. She calmed herself down, her teeth chattering, and in a flash, she opened the door behind her and tried to back out.
Yu Fang rushed forward and smashed an iron pot against Xu Guiying's leg.
Xu Guiying dodged to the side, and just then, Yu Fang suddenly gripped Xu Guiying's hand holding the kitchen knife tightly. He smiled with a trembling mouth and used his other hand to stab Xu Guiying in the stomach with the knife.
Xu Guiying dodged desperately, bending her knees and kicking Yu Fang's lower body.
Damn it, if I don't teach you a lesson, I'll change my surname to yours!
As soon as Yu Fang cried out in pain, Xu Guiying slammed her knife into Yu Fang's back.
The blade sank into his spine, got stuck in the bone, and then fell to the ground.
With a loud crash—
Yu Fang immediately cried out in pain, shoved Xu Guiying away with one hand, and stared at Xu Guiying with eyes that looked like she wanted to devour her.
Xu Guiying suppressed her trembling teeth; without her tools, she couldn't even hold a knife properly!
Just then, a commotion came from outside the courtyard.
Yu Fang's expression suddenly changed. She pushed Xu Guiying towards the stove, then turned and ran out through the small kitchen door!
"Guiying, were you calling for someone just now?! Guiying?"
Aunt Wang rushed in and screamed when she saw the blood all over the floor!
In the blink of an eye, Xu Guiying didn't have time to think. She grabbed the kitchen knife from the ground and ran out of the small kitchen door, shouting as she ran.
"Murder! Help!"
"The murderer has been caught!"
It was a weekday, and there weren't many people in Heping Lane. Aunt Wang heard Xu Guiying's voice and immediately ran over; she was the fastest.
Old Sun and Old Zheng, who lived further down the alley on the left, also ran over.
All I could see was blood scattered on the path.
Everyone's expression changed drastically, and they all rushed over.
The field where Song Rongrong was cutting chives was about five or six minutes away from the Song family's house. After she finished cutting the chives and was about to leave, she saw her mother running wildly down the road with a kitchen knife in her hand, and a woman running not far ahead of her.
Song Rongrong's face paled. Without thinking, she dropped the chives, grabbed a sickle, and rushed forward.
She was farther away from that woman than her mother was, but she didn't have time to think about it. Song Rongrong rushed forward with all her might.
"Come quick, they're here to arrest him!"
"Someone come here!"
Xu Guiying ran for a long time before seeing Song Rongrong. "Get back here right now! What are you doing here? Go home!"
After saying this, Xu Guiying continued running forward.
Yu Fang grew up in the mountains. Although he was thin from childhood, he was very strong. Today, he was wearing a black short-sleeved shirt, so you couldn't tell that he was bleeding. All you could see was blood flowing on the ground.
