Chapter 124 Zhizhi, are you afraid of me?
The Wang family members who came to cause trouble were labeled as looking for trouble and framing others. The villagers, who had long lost their ability to look down, rushed up and took away the crazy-looking Mrs. Wang, with a lot of noise.
Sang Zhixia's heart was also shaking with anxiety.
She looked at Xu Yu, who was trying to comfort the villagers, hesitantly, then tightened her lips, avoided the crowd and returned to the west shed.
She hugged her arms, her eyes were dazed, and she squatted down with her back against the door as if she could not hold on any longer.
She saw Wang Dachui's injuries.
The bones in his arms were violently twisted into twists, and the bones inside were broken into countless pieces. Even if he managed to save his life, his hands would be completely disabled, and his life from now on would be a living hell.
Such injuries can no longer be considered venting anger, they are brutal killings.
Everyone believed that Xu Yu was wrongly accused, and even Wang Dachui changed his words on the spot.
But Xu Yu...
Sang Zhixia took a deep breath and bit her lower lip. As soon as she looked up and saw the cloth stuffed under the bed, her eyes froze silently. She slowly stood up with her backhand holding the door panel and walked towards the bed.
The door creaked, and then Xu Yu's voice rang out: "Zhizhi."
Sang Zhixia turned around when she heard the voice, and was caught off guard by the gaze of Xu Yu who pushed the door open.
She maintained the posture of bending over and hooking her hands, her fingers still a hair's breadth away from the ball of linen that was casually stuffed under the bed.
Their eyes met, and the unspeakable suspicion in their eyes caused ripples in the air.
For a moment, Xu Yu looked like he wanted to come over and pull her away, but for some reason he stopped moving. When Sang Zhixia was about to pull something out from under the bed, he said, "Why are you touching that dirty thing?"
Sang Zhixia was stunned for a moment, then suddenly deflated. Not caring about the dirt on the floor, she sat down and turned to look at him: "I've been thinking about it for a long time and still can't figure it out. How did you come up with so many witnesses to prove your alibi?"
It would be fine if it was just one, but why are there so many of them?
"There's still time. How did you calculate that time difference?"
After realizing that this matter was indeed related to Xu Yu, Sang Zhixia kept thinking about it.
But no matter how I think about it, it doesn't seem right.
Wang Dachui swore the time, and the mother-in-law and daughter-in-law of the Wang family who lived under the same roof were unaware that he was beaten. But Xu Yu had an alibi witness at that time. How did he do it?
Xu Yu didn't want to say more. He smiled and said, "Isn't it enough for you to know that it was me who did it? Why ask for details?"
Sang Zhixia rolled her eyes unabashedly: "Isn't it okay to be curious?"
"How on earth did you do that?"
Xu Yu lowered his eyes with an ambiguous expression, and said in a voice that only Sang Zhixia could hear, "I got up early and left home at 3:30 am."
Ever since he had a feud with the Wang family and knew what kind of person Wang Dachui was, he had been secretly on guard. Every night after Sang Zhixia fell asleep, he would go to the greenhouse for a patrol. Today, he happened to run into him.
Sang Zhixia raised her chin to signal him to continue. Xu Yu spoke calmly, "The water in the fields was still rippled, which showed that the troublemaker hadn't gone far before I arrived. I secretly followed him all the way to the Wang family's gate."
Uncle Xu's guess was correct. It was indeed Wang Dachui who destroyed the rice seedlings in the middle of the night in revenge, but there were two other men with him.
"The noise was too loud and would inevitably be discovered, so I waited a moment until the two men left before entering Wang's house. I knocked the man unconscious and put him in a mute position. I threw him into the backyard and twisted his arm. He was in so much pain that he was unconscious. I left the backyard and, through the wall, muffled the sound of a rooster."
Wang Dachui's miserable condition at that time was indescribable, and he fainted from the severe pain.
The night was pitch black, and Xu Yu had intentionally covered his face. In the chaos, he actually didn't have time to see who had done the attack. The only thing he could remember in his confused and painful mind was the slightly strange crowing sound.
The next thing is even simpler.
At first, Xu Yu's shoulders were barely noticeably tense, as if he was considering how to explain. But as he spoke, his eyes and brows became more sarcastic, and his tone softened a lot.
"To avoid disturbing the natural order, hunting is prohibited in the first three months of spring. So a few days ago, Brother Wu mentioned to me that he wanted to find an opportunity to go into the mountains and see if there was anything to gain. My sudden visit was unexpected, but it wasn't out of the ordinary."
"Once we were inside the mountain, we split up. I headed towards the village entrance, grabbed the clothes I'd taken from Wang Dachui, messed up my hair, and then, while it was still light, I pretended to be him and walked around in front of people from a distance."
Wang Dachui had a bad temper and was a terrible person. Most villagers would stay away from him when they saw him and were unwilling to bother with him. So the person who testified that he saw Wang Dachui returning home at dawn was not lying. They only saw him vaguely from a distance, and no one knew that it was Xu Yu who was prepared and pretending to be him.
What Wu Changgui and others said was true. At the time that Wang Dachui mentioned, Xu Yu was indeed with them.
Apart from Xu Yu, only Sang Zhixia knew the twists and turns of this matter.
The fog in Sang Zhixia's mind gradually cleared up. She looked at Xu Yu's calm face and opened her mouth repeatedly, not knowing how to respond.
Xu Yu had originally decided to chase after them on a whim after seeing the seedlings being destroyed, but in just a short while, he was able to act more carefully while doing so, and set up an impeccable trap right under the eyes of the entire village, trapping the entire Wang family!
Seeing Sang Zhixia's stunned face and silent, Xu Yu calmly clenched his hands at his sides, walked to her side and squatted, raised his cold hand, but finally stopped at the side of Sang Zhixia's face and did not drop it.
He stared at Sang Zhixia steadily, with an uncontrollable cold cruelty in his eyes. However, when he spoke, his tone was softer than before: "Zhizhi, are you afraid of me?"
"Or do you think I'm being cruel and violent and shouldn't be like this?"
Sang Zhixia's expression was blank as she let out an "ah". She turned her head a little too much and her lips brushed against Xu Yu's fingertips. Xu Yu suddenly curled up as if he was burned.
Sang Zhixia was in a daze and didn't notice anything was wrong. She blinked and stared at Xu Yu as if he was a fool: "What am I afraid of you doing?"
She rubbed her face with her hands as if coming to her senses, and said helplessly and depressedly: "My Lord, you have to assess my experience of the world and my ability to accept stimulation. I have seen a different world from you."
"If you're talking about pulling hair, stomping on feet, slapping faces, tearing clothes, cursing in the street, rolling in the cesspool, I've seen plenty of these little fights, but... but I've never seen anything like this before."
What she was familiar with was called a fight, which was vastly different from this kind of crushing massacre.
A child who grew up in peace and prosperity has never seen blood. In her previous life, in just a few decades, the most brutal fight she had ever had was breaking the nose of the person who bullied her. Isn't it normal for her to feel at a loss when she opens her eyes for the first time?
The thundering heartbeat gradually subsided. Sang Zhixia groaned softly and said in a muffled voice, "You can't say I'm making a fuss. If you insist on saying that, I won't admit it."
"But to be honest, when I suddenly saw that scene, I was really shocked."
A little beyond cognition.
But it doesn’t seem to be very difficult to solve.
The Wang family really needs to be dealt with. They are like stinky flies and rotten maggots, which is really annoying. If we don’t deal with them harshly this time, how can we have peace in the future?
