Chapter 305: Head-on Confrontation
"Okay." Xiao Yu was still a little reluctant. "First of all, there must be something fishy about Sister Luosang's death. Wild beasts don't have the habit of eating a corpse completely, bones and flesh. It will take more than seven days for the remaining corpse to be devoured by other flesh-eating animals. It's even possible that the bones remain for decades."
"Ayiguli said that the villagers went up the mountain to look for Losang's sister the night she disappeared, but they didn't find a body, only scraps of clothing and bloodstains. This shows she didn't die from a wild animal, but from other causes."
Xu Chuchu nodded slowly. "But this is just speculation. There's no evidence to suggest the three Daba brothers murdered her. And this has nothing to do with Mr. Ma Jiang... Could that earring belong to Miss Luosang?"
Xiao Yu couldn't answer this question either.
Because the incident happened so long ago, there is no way to trace it back.
"Let's go, ask Luosang and we'll find out." He took Xu Chuchu by the hand, "If it's a fox, it will always show its tail."
…
"You two are here, but what do you need?" Luosang was still polite when he saw them. "Please ask. The village chief has instructed me to fully cooperate with you."
"Excuse me, Brother Luosang, we'd like to ask you some personal questions. I hope you don't mind." Xiao Yu said politely before speaking forcefully. "We heard you had a younger sister, but unfortunately she died young. What happened?"
Luosang frowned slightly when he heard them mention his sister, but soon relaxed.
"Are you two investigating the matter of the Seven Warriors?" he asked. "My sister has passed away, but she wasn't taken away by the Seven Warriors. She was injured by a wild beast while she was gathering herbs in the mountains alone."
The words were exactly the same as Ayiguli's.
"It's like this." Xiao Yu said casually, "We found an earring while investigating on the mountain."
He directly presented the earrings he had found at Mr. Ma Jiang's house to Luosang: "Brother Luosang, do you recognize this earring? Was it left behind by your sister?"
Xu Chuchu's heart skipped a beat when she heard him ask this.
This guy is too experienced, even more cunning than her.
If Xiao Yu said that this earring was found at Mr. Ma Jiang's house, or if he directly asked Luosang if he had seen it.
The results are likely to be negative.
If you say you found it in the mountains, it won't alert him. As long as he recognizes it, he will most likely admit it.
As long as he admits it and the identity of the owner of the earrings is revealed, the case can be said to have made a major breakthrough.
Xu Chuchu secretly observed Luosang's expression carefully.
"I'm sorry, both of you." He frowned and shook his head slowly. "Almost every girl in the village has these earrings. I can't tell if they belong to my sister."
"The edge of this earring has been worn away, it looks like it's been worn for a long time." Xiao Yu said, "Brother Luosang, do you really have no impression of it?"
Luosang looked at it carefully for a while, then shook his head. "I can't do anything. My sister has been gone for three years, and I never paid attention to her jewelry, so I really can't judge. Please forgive me."
After hearing this, Xiao Yu calmly put the ring away and said, "Thank you very much, Brother Luosang."
“You’re welcome.” Luosang said goodbye to the two and returned home.
Xiao Yu and Xu Chuchu also walked back, both of them with serious expressions.
"How do you look? Do you look like you are lying?" Xiao Yu asked.
"No," Xu Chuchu replied flatly. "His expression and facial movements were very natural, not like a deliberate disguise. Either he really didn't recognize me, or he has a very good mental state."
"A good attitude is also a necessary quality for a serial killer," Xiao Yu said. "We can't rule him out as a suspect."
Xu Chuchu didn't quite understand Xiao Yu's obsession with Luosang, but she believed in his intuition.
"The biggest problem now is that everyone involved is dead. Mr. Ma Jiang, the three Daba brothers, and the owner of the earrings," she pondered. "But we have a more direct solution."
"What method?" Xiao Yu asked.
"Head-on confrontation." Xu Chuchu said, "Wait for the next seven days, and then come out to catch him when it gets dark."
If this is revenge, then it's likely not over yet.
The murderer will definitely take advantage of this perfect opportunity to eliminate all those he wants to avenge.
"Yeah, I thought the same thing." Xiao Yu immediately agreed with a smile, "We are so in tune with each other."
Xu Chuchu snorted: "What do you mean by telepathy? Can't you just pretend you didn't expect it and praise me for once?"
"You are so smart, do you still need my praise?" Xiao Yu said, but he still secretly kept this request in mind.
…
Because there was no inn in the village, the two went back to find Luosang and asked him to help find a place to stay, and they were willing to pay for the room.
After consulting the village chief, Luosang took them to an empty bungalow in the village.
Because Xiao Yu had said before that Xu Chuchu was her wife, the two of them only had one room.
"The conditions in the village are simple and not as comfortable as the inn in town. Please forgive me," said Luosang.
"Brother Luosang, you are too polite." Xiao Yu took out some silver and gave it to him, but Luosang didn't want to take it, so Xiao Yu forced it on him.
As for whether he keeps the money himself or hands it over to the village chief, that is not their concern.
"I also hope this case has nothing to do with Luosang." After Luosang left, Xiao Yu sighed, "He is patient and responsible, and he doesn't covet money. He is a young man of good character."
After saying that, he turned around and looked at the residence where the two would live for the next few days. Xiao Yu's regretful mood immediately disappeared and he became a little excited.
"Chu Chu, just one room." Xiao Yu said tentatively.
"Then what?" Xu Chuchu asked knowingly.
Seeing her calm expression, Xiao Yu had no choice but to say, "How about I sleep on the floor?"
"Okay." Xu Chuchu said.
Xiao Yu collapsed instantly. He didn't care whether he slept on the ground or on a tree. He just wanted to sleep next to Xu Chuchu.
"Okay, I was just kidding." Xu Chuchu punched him lightly. "How could I bear to let a one-armed hero like you sleep on the floor all by yourself? Isn't that bullying a patient?"
She suddenly lowered her voice: "But... there's no other way. I really don't want to do it now."
"Everything is up to you. I won't force you to do anything again." Seeing that there was no one around, Xiao Yu kissed her forehead.
I feel so happy. Even if I can’t do anything else, just being able to hold Chuchu in my arms while sleeping is happiness enough.
The two of them pushed the door open and entered, seeing an empty room with only a water tank and a low table...
There are also two single beds, one against the south and one against the north wall.
Seeing Xu Chuchu choose the bed on the south side first, Xiao Yu walked towards the north side silently.
We should face life with a smile.
