Xiao Xin looked resistant. He squatted on the ground with his hands on his head and didn't want to answer Chi Mu's question at all.
Chi Mu looked at Xiao Xin's expression and he knew that Xiao Xin knew 100% about Lin Zhang's wife.
"Xiao Xin, listen to your brother. This matter is very important. Didn't you always like Miaomiao and had a good relationship with you before? Why do you suddenly not want to contact you now?
Tell me what you know, and when I solve this problem, Miaomiao will return to her old self."
Chi Mu's eyes were full of sincerity and his tone was also very sincere.
But he lied to Xiaoxin. In fact, Lin Miaomiao has now returned to normal, because those who had cast their claws on her are dead, and her haze has long dissipated.
"Brother, is everything you said true? If I tell you, can you make Miaomiao return to her previous state?"
Hearing that he could help Lin Miaomiao return to normal, Xiao Xin raised his head and looked at Chi Mu with anticipation.
From this it seems that Xiaoxin still cares very much about Lin Miaomiao.
"Well, of course it's all true, you have to believe my brother."
After saying that, Chi Mu looked at Xiao Xin quietly, waiting for him to take the initiative to tell the whole truth of the matter.
After a long time, Xiaoxin raised his head again, looked at the closed door, and shrank his neck in fear.
It seemed that he was afraid of his father who was cooking outside.
Seeing Xiaoxin's slight movement, Chi Mu frowned. He realized that Xiaoxin was very resistant to this matter and was probably afraid that his father would find out.
"Okay brother, I believe you, as long as you can make Miaomiao return to normal!"
Xiao Xin took a deep breath and began to tell everything he knew.
"That was a few years ago, a long time ago... It was raining that day, and I didn't bring an umbrella. My dad came to pick me up after school. He wanted to take me to Miaomiao's house because he heard that Miaomiao had a fever and wanted to give her some medicine.
When we arrived at Miaomiao's house, my father and I heard a quarrel coming from Miaomiao's house, and my father asked me to wait for him outside.
After my father went in, he didn't come out for a long time, but the noise of quarreling inside disappeared. I waited for a long time, and was a little scared, so I quietly crawled to the door to watch.
Then I saw Uncle Lin holding a kitchen knife with blood dripping from it...Miaomiao's mother's head fell to the ground, Miaomiao was lying on the ground, and her favorite doll was covered in blood.
It looked like she had a fever and fell into a coma. Uncle Lin was shaking all over, and my father told him not to panic, and then he walked out of the house.
I quickly ran back to where I was just now, pretending that I hadn't seen anything. Dad poked his head out and told me to go back alone because he had something else to do.
I was so scared at that time that I nodded stupidly. After my father went back into the room, I quietly hid aside again.
I saw my father and Uncle Lin took a shovel and buried Miaomiao’s mother under the walnut tree at the door, along with Miaomiao’s doll…”
After saying this, Xiaoxin couldn't stop shaking, and his little eyes were full of fear.
Obviously, this memory brought back the horrifying scene of that day.
After listening to Xiao Xin's story, Chi Mu opened his mouth slightly and was extremely shocked.
He guessed right.
It was indeed Lin Zhang who killed his wife personally. His father was just an insider and later helped Lin Zhang bury his wife's body.
But the father didn't expect that Shin-chan saw everything they did back then and hadn't told anyone over the years.
"Xiao Xin, are all these things you said true?"
Chi Mu still found it a little hard to believe that Lin Zhang would actually chop off his wife's head with his own hands.
However, the scenario described by Xiaoxin corresponds exactly to Rule 3.
And Chi Mu always sent his younger brother to the correct class, so it was unlikely that his younger brother lied to him.
"Really, of course it's all true... I wanted to tell Miaomiao, but I was afraid she would be sad after knowing it.
She already has no mother. If she still hates her father, how can she live in the future? "
Xiaoxin raised his head, his eyes a little red.
Chi Mu looked at Xiao Xin and nodded silently. He knew that Xiao Xin was also considering Lin Miaomiao.
At the same time, at a young age, he saw his father helping a murderer bury a body, which must have left a deep psychological trauma on him.
No wonder Chi Mu always felt that Xiaoxin was somewhat resistant to his father. It turned out that this was the reason.
"Okay, thank you, Shin-chan, for being brave enough to tell me these things."
Chi Mu stood up. Now he just needed to go to Lin Zhang's house and dig out the body to confirm everything.
And the strange story of "Strange Eye Village" is about to come to an end.
After opening the door of the room, Chi Mu glanced at his father who was still cooking with a complicated expression.
Although I knew that my father was just helping Lin Zhang bury his wife, I didn't know why he did that.
The answer to this question will be revealed a little bit. After Chi Mu finds the body of Lin Zhang’s wife, he will know the whole truth.
"Dad, I have to go out for something."
The father turned around and looked at Chi Mu deeply. He didn't ask Chi Mu what he was going to do, but just nodded silently.
"Well, be careful on the road."
After leaving home, Chi Mu walked on the road holding an umbrella. He was very puzzled why his father didn't ask more questions.
Could it be that my father has noticed it?
Chi Mu lowered his head, feeling a little depressed. Although he had now identified all the murderers, he was still unclear about the relationship between his father and Ma Jinya and others.
It was when he lowered his head that he saw the mud and some reed branches on his shoes.
Seeing these branches, Chi Mu's mind suddenly exploded, and he finally understood the inexplicable words his father was about to say to him.
These reed branches can only be found by the river at the west end of the village.
As soon as Chi Mu returned home, his father probably noticed the reed branches next to his shoes, and guessed that Chi Mu was also at the riverside at the west end of the village.
So, his father said something that left Chi Mu confused for a moment.
"Everyone has their own obsessions in life, no matter who they are."
What my father calls “obsession” is his wife.
Even though she had been bedridden for years and her medicine cost a lot of money, her father never chose to give up on her.
He chose a dirty way to make money and tried to pay for his mother's high medical expenses.
Chi Mu knew that his father was a proud man with a sense of justice in his heart.
But for his mother, his father was willing to put aside his own nature.
What my father said just now was that he hoped Chi Mu could understand him a little and hate him less.
This is the helplessness of adults.
"Alas, it turns out that my father has known that I was investigating these things for a long time, but he never stopped me. He probably felt that my behavior was not right, but was hesitant and unable to make a choice on his own."
Chi Mu sighed and came to the door of Lin Zhang's house with a heavy heart.
He glanced at the walnut tree in front of the door.
Chi Mu knew that the body of Lin Zhang's wife was buried under this tree.
"Boss Chi...Boss Chi?"
