C11 Earth-shaking

When his father was alive, he was good at handling matters and did not have any enemies. In the end, he died a horrible death. It was unbearable, and no matter how hard he tried, he could not figure out who had killed him. The mother sobbed and called the police. When the police arrived, they surveyed the scene and then found me to interrogate.

This was because they had determined the exact time of death for their father. At that time, I was at home. Isn't this nonsense? All I can do is lie on the bed and recuperate, I can't get out of bed at all. If I don't stay at home, where else can I go?

A police officer asked, "Jin Shi, are you awake from five in the afternoon until eight in the evening?"

I said, "I can't sleep every afternoon and evening. I'm reading a book. Of course I'm awake!"

The policeman asked, "What are you reading?"

I said, "I'm looking at How the Killer Makes It!" He picked up a thick book on the bedside table and handed it over as proof.

The policeman flipped through the book and raised his head. He frowned and looked at me with a peculiar gaze. "Why are you reading these books?"

I said, "It's nothing, just killing time!"

The policeman asked me, "How did you feel about your father's death?"

I couldn't stop crying as I choked with sobs. "It's really sad. I feel as if the sky has fallen on my head!"

Next, the police searched my yard. He found a bloodstained dagger in the henhouse. As if he had found a treasure, he carefully put away the dagger in a plastic bag and confidently said to his mother: "Relax, we will soon be able to solve this case! You have to be patient and wait for our news! "

Mother asked: "Then what about my family's Da Laozhu's corpse? What do I do with it? "

The policeman said, "Buy a coffin and put it away. There is no need for an autopsy. At a glance, you can tell that the victim died with a knife to her throat!"

By the time the police left, it was late, past one in the morning. My mother did not sleep in her bedroom. They drove away the villagers who had come to watch the show. They had a discussion in the courtyard. It was decided to carry my father's body to a bed and place it in the main room. I'll buy a coffin when it's daylight.

After the clan had left, I heard my mother in the hall crying for a while. Then he heard the door close again. She came to my room and sat by my bed. Her eyes were red and swollen, but she could not stop her tears.

I shook my head. "No, I don't have a dog! It did not call out during the day! "

His mother asked again, "Where are your eldest sister and Little Sister?"

I said: "I was called away by my grandfather to serve your great-grandmother! I don't know what's going on with Granny Gao now, but she's taking a bath every day! "

The mother said angrily, "These two are really forcing girls to be raised for nothing. Even after their own father died, they still didn't know how to come here. Your grandpa is really something. Your father is dead, but he still hasn't come to visit! All of his attention was focused on the Blind Old Woman. I really wonder what kind of treasure the Blind Old Woman gave him! "

I advised, "Mother, you should go to bed early. It's already three in the morning. When the sun rises, we still have to be in charge of my father's funeral! "

Mother cried, "I'm not going back to the living room. Seeing your father's corpse, I can't take it anymore. And a little scared! I'll go to the East Room to sleep. "

After my mother left, I switched off the light. He slowly shifted his body and endured the pain, changing his sitting posture to lying down. He stared at the darkness in front of him, unable to fall asleep for a long time. He thought of the second red Silk Bag that had been opened. He remembered the contents of the slip of paper inside clearly: 15th of the eighth month of the year 2006, Jin Da Zhu Mo.

And now his father was dead. The date of death is the date of the note. But I didn't kill my father with my own hands. Could it be that the red Silk Bag's prediction was half wrong?

Unknowingly, I fell into a daze. He heard movement. It was the sound of footsteps. His consciousness immediately cleared up a lot as he listened attentively. The sound of footsteps came from within the living room. Who went into the room where the bodies were kept? Could it be that his mother found it hard to suppress her grief and went to see his father again?

I looked out the window. I didn't see any light shining except for some white natural night light. He was sure that the light bulbs in the living room and East Room were all extinguished. It was still dusk, so if he didn't turn on the lights and enter the house, it would be equivalent to going blind. What's more, a corpse was placed in the main hall.

"Mother!" I screamed.

The commotion in the living room suddenly stopped. I waited for a minute, but no one answered.

"Mother!" I shouted again.

The East Room's light suddenly lit up. Then, his mother's voice came out: What's going on, Shier, what are you shouting for?

"Did you enter the main hall just now?" I asked loudly.

"Just now, I didn't! I was asleep. We were woken up by your shouts! " Mother said.

"I heard someone moving around the hall!" I could not help but feel a little scared as I shouted loudly.

"How could that be!" If a thief came in, our dog didn't even bark! If Yu Xia and Yuhong came back, how could they not shout for us! Could it be that you were dreaming? " The mother analyzed.

"I'm not dreaming! It was real! There was really someone moving around in the living room just now! " I felt a chill run down my spine.

"Enough!" Sleep! You must be hysterical! " Mother was impatient.

The lights in the East Room were extinguished again. I closed my eyes, concentrated, and listened.

A long time passed. The commotion in the living room sounded out again. It wasn't caused by a rat. It was a man walking. The range of activities was limited to the main hall. He seemed to be walking in a circle. I couldn't get out of bed, or else I really would have broken into the living room to see what was going on. Even though he was afraid, this person's curiosity would sometimes surpass his fear.

It was only until dawn that the sounds in the living room finally stopped. And I was absolutely sure that the footsteps did not come out of the hall at all. Besides, I've been watching out the window, and if someone comes out of the hall, to get out of the yard, they have to pass through the window of my house.

My house is the West Room. There was a narrow path between the main hall facing south and the door. But there was a kennel in the alley. If someone tried to break into the passage, it would definitely alarm the dog. My dog is used to roaming around. Usually, when the door is closed, he doesn't tie it, especially at night. It was a very tall and fierce wolfdog.

I never saw a shadow pass by the window. The dog did not bark when there was movement in the hall. If it was still in the nest, it should have noticed it since it was so close to the hall. A dog's ears are much more sensitive than a human's. This made me wonder if it had died suddenly at night, or if it had taken the opportunity to run out of the compound before the gates were closed.

Or perhaps: a familiar person making a ruckus in the living room, a dog does not bite.

Early in the morning, there was fog. Mother got up and came out of the East Room. He took a look in the living room but didn't say anything. He washed his face and rinsed his mouth as usual. But there was no time to cook. Let me wait at home. She's going into town with her people to buy a coffin for my father. I hurried to ask where my dog was.

His mother said he was lying well in the kennel. I said again whether it was deaf or stupid. The mother called out softly, and the dog came out of the kennel, wagging its tail in a pitiful way. That the dog is all right, all right.

Shortly after her mother left. Grandfather brought Big Sister and Little Sister back. The three of them cried the moment they entered the door. Especially since Pappy cried the loudest, and I could hear him beating his chest and stomping his feet in the hall from the west room. Sister and Little Sister pushed open the door of the west room and barged in, asking me who killed our father. I said I didn't know. If I knew who the murderer was, the police would have arrested him long ago.

After crying for a while, Grandpa had to go back. She said that she was worried about Granny Gao being alone at home. He also said that he wanted Granny GaoZu to find out who had killed his father's vengeful spirit.

Eldest Sister and Little Sister also wanted to follow Grandfather. It should be to see how Hu Shizhen found Hun'er. Grandfather said that you two will stay behind to keep your father's filial piety. I will come call for you when your great-great-grandmother starts bathing in the afternoon. I couldn't help but ask, "Grandpa, what happened to Grandma Gao? Why is she bathing every day?"

After hearing my question, under the grief from losing his son, Grandfather's face unexpectedly exposed a mysterious smile. He seemed rather proud and excited as he said, "Our Old Jin family is about to have a meteoric rise! Your Grandmother Gao is about to shake the world! "
