Chapter 816 Solve A Case
826
This time, Wang Qinfang really panicked.
Thinking back to the smell of blood when she first entered Wu Zhongguo's tent last night and the strange words Wu Zhongguo had said at that time, Wang Qinfang firmly believed that her daughter must have been killed by Wu Zhongguo.
As for the claim that her daughter was eaten, it was actually nonsense. She felt that this statement would make Wu Zhongguo look even more terrifying. She could not fight against Wu Zhongguo, who had mutation abilities, and could only rely on the strength of others. In her heart, there was a fantasy that her daughter was still alive, but Wu Zhongguo had hidden her daughter for some reason. She hoped that other people could help her to force Wu Zhongguo to hand her over.
However, people didn't listen to Wang Qinfang's explanation at all. Since they couldn't find the little girl and Wang Qinfang was biting people like a mad dog, everyone ignored her and put away all the tents to continue their journey.
Wang Qinfang naturally would not let it go. She hugged Wu Zhongguo's thigh and refused to let him go. Wu Zhongguo also had a good temper and allowed Wang Qinfang to make trouble, neither explaining nor pushing Wang Qinfang away.
Seeing this, everyone felt that Wu Zhongguo was a good person. Even though he had been wronged, he did not bother with Wang Qinfang.
It was at this moment that Lu Ya and Qin An arrived.
After listening to Wang Qinfang's narrative, Lu Ya was in a difficult situation because she found that there was no direct evidence of Wu Zhongguo's guilt in Wang Qinfang's words.
"Why do I have the clothes and blood of a little girl in your room?"
Lu Ya decided to take the initiative to investigate the truth according to the only clue.
She was naturally asking Wu Zhongguo a question, but before Wu Zhongguo could respond, a kind-looking old lady walked out from behind him. She raised her head but still couldn't see Lu Ya's face. Lu Ya could see the old woman clearly.
"Are you a King of Zangxi?
Nice to meet you here.
Let me introduce myself. My name is Peach. When I was at my mother's house, I only had this nickname, so I called myself Peach for a lifetime. I'm already in my eighties this year.
I am now the only relative of Young Master Zhongguo. In fact, I am his nurse, and I brought him up when I was young.
Before the apocalypse, Young Master Zhongguo was an incomparably kind person, and after the apocalypse, he was even better.
He came back from America to look for his parents, but he only found me, an old woman.
Ah, the poor master's family was eaten by the zombies… "
At this point, the old woman shed a few tears of sadness. After stabilizing her emotions, she continued,
"This woman called Wang Qinfang joined our team before.
Hmph, ever since she came, she has always been walking around in front of our Young Master, and she even made that little girl Ai stick to her Young Master every day.
Little Ai, on the other hand, is cute, and I like her very much. However, I really don't like the way Wang Qinfang uses her children to seduce our young master. She thinks that she has done it in secret, but I didn't know that her thoughts and aims have long been guessed by the old woman!
Lord King, do you think that a woman who has just lost her husband and wants to seduce someone else can be a good thing?
Hmph, when I was young, she did not obey the way of women. She wanted to be immersed in a pig cage!
Of course, this is the apocalypse. This kind of thing between men and women is nothing. My granny is not an old-fashioned person, so she ignores her actions. Everything depends on what our young master means. If he is willing to accept this woman, the old granny has nothing to say.
Last night, I went to tidy up the things in the tent for Young Master. When I saw Little Ai there, I nagged at Young Master for a while. I didn't say anything about Wang Qinfang, did I? After all, I really don't like her.
Young Master didn't say anything. He just listened to me and occasionally smiled and nodded, telling me not to worry.
I saw Xiao Ai sweating profusely at the side, afraid that she would get sick, so I had someone boil hot water and give her a hot bath, so I took off her clothes and put them in the corner.
Because of the cold weather, I put her under the young master's blanket after bathing the child. I thought about pouring the bath water and putting on her clothes. But I didn't expect that when I tidied everything up, Xiao Ai fell asleep in the young master's arms.
That little appearance is extremely cute. I can't bear to wake her up, so I'll let Young Master carry her to sleep. Anyway, Young Master likes Little Ai. At the same time, I also criticized this woman, Wang Qinfang. Hmph, it was already past nine o'clock at that time, and I don't know where she ran to as a mother.
As for the bloodstains on the ground in the room, they were obtained by killing wild boars during supper.
I don't know which junior set up the tent for Young Master. It was actually set up at the place where the wild boar was killed. I originally wanted to find someone to scold him fiercely, but Young Master is kind. He said that he would leave after staying for one night anyway. It's fine! Ai, Young Master has such a good temper!
Therefore, it is normal for Young Master to have Xiao Ai's clothes and blood stains in his tent. I can testify his innocence for Young Master.
I think it must be that after I left, Young Master fell asleep. When he woke up again, Little Ai was no longer in his arms and ran out.
Ah, that poor little girl, I don't know how she was taught by her mother. She doesn't have any rules at all. She always likes to run around.
Poor child, I don't know what kind of mutated beast is in this wilderness. If she ran out, it would be really bad luck!
Lord Titled King, this is the truth of the matter!
Hmph, I think it's possible that Xiao Ai was hid by Wang Qinfang. She has been trying to hook up with our Young Master, but she has failed. Now it seems that she has changed her method, pretending to lose her child and then falsely accusing our Young Master. In the future, she can use this reason to pester our Young Master forever!
Yes, it must be like this! "
The old woman named Peach shouted angrily at the end of her sentence, as if Wang Qinfang was really a poisonous woman.
At this time, the surrounding people also came forward to testify that they had indeed killed wild boars to eat last night. Several half-grown boys apologized to their leader, Wu Zhongguo. They said that they had drunk a little too much last night, so they accidentally set up Wu Zhongguo's tent at the place where they had killed wild boars. They really deserved to die.
There were also people who proved that Wang Qinfang usually liked to circle around the leader, Wu Zhongguo, and that intention was obvious.
All of a sudden, all the accusations revolved around Wang Qinfang.
After listening to Peach Granny's words, Wang Qinfang also sat down on the ground.
She's not sure.
Actually, in her heart, whether it was Wu Zhongguo or Granny Peach, they were all good people. Granny Peach was a little old and confused, but her memory was very good. She would never lie.
Now that Wu Zhongguo had a reasonable explanation for his daughter's clothes and the blood stains in his room, could it be that Ai had really run away by herself?
If so, where is her daughter now?
Was he an irresponsible mother?
Yes, the reason why she came back so late by the river was because she was thinking about the matter with Wu Zhongguo. This really shouldn't have happened. How could she leave her daughter to be taken care of?
Wang Qinfang's legs softened and she lay on the ground. Facing the accusations from the surroundings, tears gushed down her cheeks, and her mind completely collapsed.
When Lu Ya heard the words of the group below, she knew what was going on in her heart.
Most importantly, she found that Wang Qinfang did not refute the accusation. It seemed that she did not believe that Wu Zhongguo had killed her daughter. In other words, what she said just now was completely a rascal.
Hey, what should we do now?
Lu Ya was a little embarrassed. She originally wanted to teach this group of people who bullied women a lesson. Now, it seemed that things were completely different from what she thought. Everything was a misunderstanding. Speaking of which, it was still the woman's fault. If she could always stay by her child's side, then how could the child be lost?
Forget it. Now that she has lost her child and her mental state is not good, she should stop talking about her. She is also a pitiful person.
Thinking of this, Lu Ya loudly said,
"Everyone, now things are clear, I don't think there is anyone right or wrong in this, the key problem is still that child called Xiao ai!
"I heard from you that you have been searching for the children in the camp since last night. Have you ever searched nearby?"
Lu Ya's words silenced everyone.
A captain of the night watchman stood up and shouted,
"Lord King, there are more than three hundred people on our side. The temporary camp is not small. At night, we will have forty people standing guard in all directions of the camp.
That Little Ai is only three years old this year. Although she can run very well, she can't run out of the camp without hesitation!
We think that she must have secretly escaped from the leader's tent last night, and then encountered some small beasts in the camp and died!
This kind of thing had happened before. There was a mutated creature called tiger rats that was very common in the vicinity. They were mutated rats. They were generally thirty centimeters long, had large mouths, had sharp teeth, and liked to eat live meat. They can kill in one shot while they're hunting, Let his prey die instantly without making a sound, Because their teeth contain paralyzing poison, and if an adult tiger wants to eat a child as old as Little Ai, it only takes half a minute. Their teeth can directly crush Little Ai's bones. In other words, if Little Ai is eaten by Little Ai, we won't find any traces! And the tigers are agile and quick, it's hard for them to sneak into the campsite… "
"Stop!" Wang Qinfang's body was trembling. She could not believe that her daughter was dead, but what the night watchman captain said made sense. There were indeed quite a lot of tiger rats nearby. Moreover, they silently ate a child the size of Little Ai, but it only took a few tens of seconds! Wang Qinfang already felt that this could be the truth of the matter. Perhaps Wu Zhongguo had searched for Little Ai after discovering that she was not in the tent last night and happened to discover that Little Ai was eaten by a tiger mouse. However, he was too late to save Little Ai.
That was why Wu Zhongguo said to himself with a sad expression yesterday, "Let me pretend that Little Ai is already dead …" The reason why he didn't directly tell her the truth was because he didn't want to make her sad!
Indeed, she had indeed wronged Wu Zhongguo!
At this moment, Wang Qinfang's thoughts had changed, so she believed that Little Ai was dead and became even more sad.
After listening to the captain of the night watchman and seeing Wang Qinfang's performance, everyone felt that this should be the case. Thus, they did not complain about Wang Qinfang. After all, she was a poor mother who had lost her child.
Lu Ya also thought that things were destined to be like this, so she planned to leave. Since everything was a misunderstanding, then she did not want to stay and endure the sorrow that had nothing to do with her.
At this moment, from five hundred meters away, a handsome young man who looked around twenty appeared and quickly approached the crowd.
People don't know who he is or what he's doing here.
The handsome man walked to Wang Qinfang's side first and then said to Wu Zhongguo, "You haven't said a word from beginning to end. Do you feel very uncomfortable? You probably don't want to eat that child called Little Ai, do you?"
What?
Everyone, including Lu Ya, was confused. What did this man mean? Who was he?
