"Can you read?"
Xu Tiantu nodded: "We can all read."
Director Li frowned and asked, "Are you saying that everyone in your family can read?"
Being able to use idioms at such a young age is not a question of literacy.
"Learning to read is basic, right?" The government hadn't said anything about keeping this a secret, so she wasn't worried at all. She just wanted to find the person who had backstabbed her.
Eliminate!! Is backstab still okay?
Director Li held his forehead and said, "What is a lion is basic. If such a good thing really happens, everyone will be very happy. The problem is that it is very difficult to popularize this now. The illiteracy rate in the country is still too high."
He decided to skip this question for now. After all, it didn't seem to make much sense to talk about it now. The most important thing right now was to get this matter straight. He asked, "Well, little Xu Tiantu, I have a few questions for you to answer. After you finish answering, I'll take you home, okay?"
After all, such a young child should not have much to do with the matter itself, they are sure of this, so now they are just conducting routine inquiries, and they just want to resolve the matter faster.
Xu Tiantu nodded obediently: "Okay."
"Okay, let's start with the first question. What caused the conflict between the Dazhu family and yours?"
Worried that she wouldn't understand, Director Li tried to explain it more simply: "The cause means..."
"I understand." Xu Tiantu was in a bad mood and didn't bother to play dumb. He just said, "It all started out of my mom's kindness. Uncle Dazhu had a heatstroke, and it looked really bad, so my mom wanted to help him. Since we're from the south, this kind of situation is more common than in the north, and everyone has more experience with it, so they judged it to be serious. Unfortunately, his family didn't think so. Instead, they thought we were asking him for money to pay for his medical expenses."
"My mother certainly couldn't stop the family from taking him back. She hoped he would be fine, but she didn't expect him to be gone that night."
The police officer next to Director Li recorded the relevant information truthfully, and Director Li continued to ask, "During the treatment process, did your mother give the other person any medication?"
The communication with the child went very smoothly, and there was no need to think of any particularly immature wording. This certainly made things much easier for Director Li. However, he still had many personal doubts about the child in his mind, but now was not the time to ask about these. He had to ask about the main things first, and then deal with other things later.
Xu Tiantu shook his head and said very confidently: "No, if they agreed to let my mother take the medicine, they wouldn't have quarreled so fiercely."
This made a lot of sense, and Director Li and the police also thought so. Because it was indeed the case, and according to the information they had learned from other villagers, this point had not been wrong so far.
"So..." Director Li continued, speaking a little faster: "Where is the fake knife your grandmother stabbed in the stomach yesterday?"
Xu Tiantu showed a confused face: "Knife clamp? Is that his name? The knife was taken away by the police."
Public Security Officer: “…” Thank you, I don’t have it.
Director Li said, "Your grandmother wasn't injured yesterday. Did you know that?"
Xu Tiantu shook his head: "Uncle Dazhu's mother was so fierce yesterday. The knife was so long."
When he said this, he gestured with his hands to indicate the length of the knife.
She sneered in her heart. She still didn't know which stupid guy had reported the secret. This matter was very simple. It was just a scare and a lesson. Now that things have come to that point, many things have to be done in reality.
However, I don’t know what her parents think since she can be so cruel as to do such a thing.
As for her brother, there is no need to worry. In her heart, her brother has always been a smart person. Emotions such as cruelty and not being cruel are of no use to him. He only knows how to achieve the best result, so there is no need to worry about whether he will feel soft-hearted or anything.
Director Li was stunned, because he had actually assumed in his heart that children would never lie on such issues, so he was so surprised when the child gave this answer. What's more, there was already various evidences pointing out that yesterday's incident was an abominable drama directed and performed by immigrants from the south.
However, it is not impossible that the parents taught the child something in advance, so Director Li raised a key question at this time: "Did you see what the knife looked like?"
There were many things that could be said, but they had already taken the knife away. Whether it was a real knife or a fake one, the child had to be able to describe what the knife looked like. He didn't believe that the child could only record details in this aspect and be so accurate.
"Of course, I saw it clearly." Xu Tiantu said seriously, "The handle of the knife is made of wood, very old, with rust on the blade, and two cross scratches on the bottom of the handle, one of which is red."
Director Li and the public security comrade looked at each other, both of them were quite shocked.
Absolutely, all the information matched. But they still found it incredibly strange because the information was so detailed. How could they possibly remember it with just a cursory glance? Even if they viewed it later indoors, wouldn't a normal child pay attention to it?
