Chapter 10 Chapter Nine: The Death of the Spirit Summoner

Walking out of the courtyard of Mrs. Meng's house, it was pitch black outside.I stayed outside the door for a while, and after my eyes got used to the darkness, I walked forward vaguely.I couldn't walk a few steps, but saw two figures indistinctly on the side of the path ahead, seeming to be looking at me. I knew it was Ling Mufeng's eyeliner, so I wanted to go around it.But then I thought about it: If they want to harm me, can I hide?Cowardly, but lost momentum!So he walked towards the two with his head held high.The two stood on the side of the road and watched me pass by. They seemed to be whispering, but they didn't stop the trouble.My heart was a little relieved, and I took the opportunity to speed up my pace, just wanting to leave the place of right and wrong as soon as possible.

Turned a corner and turned onto the street in the town.There are hundreds of lights on both sides of the road, and the night has been dispersed a lot.I looked back by the bright light, but saw a figure about ten steps behind me silently following me, step by step.I was startled, and my originally relaxed mood became tense again.I know that figure must be one of the two before, he follows me so closely, what is his intention? I kept walking, and my mind was spinning rapidly.A moment later, he suddenly had a plan.When I got to the next intersection, I turned around and went to the police station instead of the hotel.I never looked back to inquire after that, but I could feel the man following closely behind me all the time.

The street where the police station is located is the bustling part of the town.There are a few good restaurants that are still open, and there are townspeople coming and going on the road from time to time.Seeing that I was approaching the gate of the police station, I suddenly quickened my pace, trotted forward, then turned suddenly at the entrance of an alley, then stopped and hid at the base of the wall.After a while, hurried footsteps were heard coming straight to the entrance of the alley.I listen to the sound to identify the position, and I am ready to go.When the man had just turned the corner, I rushed out from the base of the wall and slammed into his ribs heavily.Caught off guard, the man stepped back two steps towards the entrance of the alley and fell to the ground.

I took out my wallet and threw it on the ground, then jumped on it, held down the man and shouted: "Little thief, how dare you steal my wallet?" The man was taken aback, and then retorted: "Fart! Who the hell stole your stuff?" At the same time, he struggled to get up.Seeing me pushing him hard, the man freed his hand again and punched me on the head.I turned sideways and dodged. The man took the opportunity to climb up, but just halfway up, I kicked him in the waist, and he turned somersault again. This somersault made the other party furious, and he roared: "Hey, I'll fuck you!" Then he jumped up and rushed towards me fiercely.I gritted my teeth and fought him head-on without giving in.So we punched you and kicked me, and we had a great fight in the middle of the street.The shouting sound spread far away through the silent night, and soon, not only the passing town residents stopped to watch, even the residents and shops on both sides of the street also ran out to watch the excitement.The originally deserted street soon became full of people.

The man was strong and strong, and after ten or so rounds, I gradually couldn't hold on anymore.At this moment, I suddenly heard a police whistle ringing in my ears, and at the same time someone shouted: "What are you doing? Stop it!" Taking advantage of the moment when the man was stunned, I quickly withdrew and jumped out of the circle.Turning around, I saw two policemen walking in from the crowd.These two are fat and thin, but they are acquaintances—they were the ones who snatched me from the lime pond yesterday. "What are you doing?" The thin policeman roared again, and then he also recognized me, and said in a daze, "Why is it you again?"

I pointed to the ground and said, "He stole my wallet!" "You fucking fart!" The man stepped forward and pointed at my face with a finger arrogantly, "Open your dog eyes and see, do you know who I am? I'll steal your fucking wallet ?” "Are you still swearing? I'll break your dog legs!" I didn't show any weakness, and kicked again.The man didn't expect that I would dare to make a move in front of the police, and this kick landed firmly on my knee.With an "Ouch", he squatted on the ground with his knees hugged, his expression painful.

"Fight again? It's against you!" The thin policeman scolded angrily, and led the fat policeman forward, holding my arms from left to right, and I couldn't move at once.Seeing this, the man struggled to get up and wanted to beat me up, but the skinny policeman stopped him with his hand and said, "Don't fucking beat me up, we'll talk about it when we go back to the prison!" The police took both of us back to the police station, and they put me in a room first.but left the man outside the house.I could only hear them rustling, but I didn't know what they said.After a while, the door of the room opened, and the skinny policeman walked in with my wallet.He threw the wallet in front of me, pouted and said, "Take your wallet, let's go."

"What about the thief?" I insisted, "Why don't you lock him up?" The thin policeman put on a straight face: "What are you doing? People who follow Mr. Ling can steal your wallet? You are purely provoking trouble. Let me tell you, if I didn't look at Sergeant Wu's face, I would have to do it again." Hang you all night!" But I ignored his threat and just hugged my arms and said, "I don't care, if you don't lock him up, I won't leave." "Okay, do you want to leave or not?" The skinny policeman didn't bother to argue with me, he turned around and left on his own. When he went out, he locked me up again with a "click".

I was the only one left in the house, so I felt extraordinarily safe.This should be a cell where prisoners are temporarily held.There is an iron window on the south wall, and a little light comes in through the window, so that I can vaguely see the situation inside the house.There was nothing else in the room except a broken bed.I went to the bed and lay down, only to feel that there was a mess under my body. When I reached out and touched it, it turned out to be a quilt. The quilt was sticky and damp, exuding a strong musty smell.But how can you care so much in this situation?I pulled the quilt over my body, closed my eyes and tried to fall asleep.

After experiencing all kinds of twists and turns for two consecutive days, I was extremely exhausted physically and mentally.But when he was actually lying on the bed, he couldn't fall asleep. He felt his head was getting bigger and bigger, and his thoughts were only half-dream and half-awake.I don't know how long it took to be so drowsy, and suddenly there was a pattering sound next to my ear.The sound was not loud at first, but it hit my empty eardrums in this quiet night, and it produced a deafening loud noise.I woke up all of a sudden, sat up from the bed, and looked out the window where the sound came from.

But I saw that the night outside the window was fading, but the sky in the distance was slightly gray, not as dark as before.The fine raindrops are passing by the window, illuminated by the light, faintly reflecting light, shuttle back and forth like silver needles. "It's raining..." I muttered to myself, got up and walked to the window.The autumn wind rolled into the window wrapped in raindrops, and hit my face coolly, bringing a bit of chill into my heart. I took out my pocket watch and looked at it, and saw that it was midnight.According to Mrs. Meng's plan, she should start the spirit-calling ceremony at this moment. Will everything go as expected?I looked at the raindrops flying all over the sky, but I didn't dare to speak nonsense. The rain was getting heavier and heavier, and my face and hair by the window were already wet.I thought of that girl again. At this moment, she is being claustrophobic in a ward of a mental hospital. On this cold rainy night, what kind of loneliness and torment should that be? My heart throbbed with pain, but my restlessness and uneasiness gradually subsided.I told myself that it was time to sleep, and that I would be in the best mental state to meet the next dawn. I went back to the bed and lay down again, and fell asleep to the sound of the wind and rain. This sleep lasted until the sky was bright, and I didn't wake up from my sleep until the door lock of the cell slammed.When he opened his eyes to look again, he saw that the door had been opened, and Sergeant Wu walked in first. When the old man saw me, he frowned and asked, "What's going on with you?" "It's safe here." I sat up and stretched my waist and said. The old man gave a puzzled "Huh?" "Someone was staring at me last night." I squeezed my eyes and said, "I've thought about it, only here can I sleep soundly." Sergeant Wu understood.He smiled "hehe", showing his yellow teeth, and said, "I can't see it, but you're a good-for-nothing." I shook my head and sighed to myself: "Oh, people are forced out." "All right, all right, don't play tricks. Put on your shoes and let me go." The old man rushed out the door as he said.I hurriedly got out of bed and kicked off my shoes, huffing and rushing out a few steps. When I got outside the house, I saw that the sky was bright and the autumn rain seemed to have stopped for a while, but the ground was still wet, and every step on it was like a footprint. Inspector Wu waited for me to catch up behind him, turned around and said, "Skip breakfast for now, and we'll eat something together when we call Mrs. Meng." I replied, "Okay." Then I asked, "Did Ling Mufeng come looking for trouble yesterday?" Sergeant Wu nodded and gave me a general account of yesterday's situation.It turned out that not long after I left yesterday morning, Ling Mufeng came to the door.He warned Mrs. Meng to stop meddling in such matters, with a threatening tone in his tone.Fortunately, the old man was still there at the time, and Ling Mufeng didn't dare to make too much of a fuss.Sergeant Wu also knew about Ling Mufeng leaving behind two eyeliners.Before he left, he specifically warned those two guys not to make mistakes. "I'm not afraid of them. I beat that tail that stared at me yesterday..." I patted my chest and said smugly. Sergeant Wu glanced at me disdainfully: "Then why are you hiding in the cell?" I coughed twice in embarrassment, and changed the topic: "I was worried that something would happen to Mrs. Meng? If those two guys broke in in the middle of the night..." The old man waved his hand and said, "No way. I have already told them that Mrs. Meng is going to summon the spirit at night, who dares to touch that bad luck? The people in this mountain believe in gods, ghosts and ghosts!" Hearing what he said, I was relieved.No more words along the way, just quickly walked towards the residence of Mrs. Meng.When we got to the small road outside the yard, we saw that the two people were still guarding the roadside yesterday. Their clothes were damp and their expressions were sluggish. They must have suffered from the wind and rain all night. When passing by them, Sergeant Wu teased in a teasing tone: "Have the two brothers guarded all night? Tsk tsk, it's really hard work. I have to tell Mr. Ling, this deserves a big reward!" Those two people were very upset, but they didn't dare to attack the old man, so they had to turn their heads and stare at me a few times with fierce eyes. I didn't bother to talk to them, so I just followed Sergeant Wu to the courtyard gate.The courtyard door was closed, I raised my hand and knocked on the door twice, but no one in the courtyard responded.When I wanted to knock again, Sergeant Wu said impatiently: "Don't knock, this old lady never locks the door, just push it open!" I said "Oh" and went up to open the door.Sure enough, the door wasn't locked, and it came loose as soon as it was stressed.But when it was pushed down again, the door panel seemed to be caught by something, and it felt a little blocked.I muttered: "Is there something stuck?" I increased the strength of my hand while talking. The door panel slowly rotated under my push, exposing about a shoulder's width, but it became more and more difficult to push.Sergeant Wu looked in to help at the door and said, "Why is there a rope hanging on the door?" I also took a look, and sure enough: a hemp rope was hanging from the eaves of the door, and it was being stretched on the door panel.The more the door panel was turned inward, the tighter the rope became, no wonder it couldn't be pushed. While the two of us were lingering at the door, the two men under Ling Mufeng also quietly approached and looked around the yard with their heads poking around.I glanced back at them, but didn't pay much attention to them. I just put my arm through the crack of the door and pulled the hemp rope high to slide it out of the door panel.The rope was heavy, as if something heavy was falling on it. I stood on tiptoe and pulled it several times with great effort, and then the rope fell off the upper edge of the door panel. There was no obstacle to the door, and it turned completely open with a "creak".Then I saw the situation inside the door: it turned out that one of the hemp ropes hanging the white cloth was broken and pulled down from the eaves of the door.As soon as I pushed the door, the rope just caught the door panel.The white cloth that had been hung on the rope had been soaked in the rain all night, and the rope was heavily pressed to the ground, making it difficult to pull. I continued to tug on the rope, trying to pull it completely away from the door.At this moment, Police Chief Wu beside him suddenly yelled: "Mrs. Meng?!" The tone of panic was unusual.At the same time, he rushed into the yard.I hurriedly raised my head and looked in front of him, only to find that there was a person lying beside a pile of white cloths. Judging from his figure and clothes, who wasn't Mrs. Meng? I threw away the rope in my hand and rushed after the old man.But what Meng Pozi was lying on was the center of the mourning hall.She was on her back, with her hands raised and inserted around her neck, motionless.Her cloudy eyes were turned abruptly, and her tongue was sticking out of her lips, her expression was extremely terrifying. Sergeant Wu squatted down, pointed the index finger and middle finger of his right hand under Pozi Meng's nose.I stood aside stupidly and asked, "What's wrong with her?" Sergeant Wu's fingers rested under Mrs. Meng's nose, as if frozen.After a while, he struggled to utter three words: "She died..." "Dead?" I widened my eyes in astonishment, "How...how did this happen?" Someone behind me also asked, "What's the matter?" I looked back subconsciously, only to see that the two men under Ling Mufeng also followed into the yard, looking blankly at Mrs. Meng's corpse. As soon as Sergeant Wu heard their voices, he immediately raised his head, his eyes widened and he said, "What's wrong? What do you say?!" The two tasted something, one of them hurriedly shook his hand and said: "Inspector Wu, this matter has nothing to do with us brothers."The former person understood, he clasped his fists and said: "This murder case is not a trivial matter, we will report it to the police right away, and we will not accompany you!" After finishing speaking, the two turned around and ran out of the courtyard, and went straight to the town. go. Sergeant Wu ignored those two for the time being, and turned his gaze to Granny Meng's hands.Mrs. Meng was old and hunchbacked. When she lay down, her chin was almost pressed against her chest, but her neck was completely covered.So this meeting only saw her hands stretched into her neck, but she didn't know why.Sergeant Wu put his right hand in, and while pulling up the collar, he held Pozi Meng's head with his left hand and turned slightly, revealing the mystery of the latter's neck. I saw that under the collar, a circle of hemp rope was stretched close to the skin of the neck.Granny Meng's hands were holding onto the hemp rope, as if trying to tear the rope apart. Seeing this situation, combined with Mrs. Meng's facial expression, Sergeant Wu made a temporary conclusion: "She was strangled to death." , found where the rope ends. The end of the rope was in the middle of Pozi Meng's jaw, tightly against the throat.The hemp rope first went around the back of the dead man's neck, and then the two strands were twisted into one strand at the lower jaw, becoming tighter and tighter like braiding.After the tangled hemp rope was twisted into a stiff rope at the throat, it extended toward the chest, just like a long and thin braid of hemp rope growing out from under the jaw.The braids weaved all the way, crawled over the body of the deceased, circled around the toes, and headed further away. The gazes of Sergeant Wu and I followed the direction of the hemp rope braid in unison.After winding for two or three meters, the hemp rope climbed into the ancient well under the saponin tree. Sergeant Wu stood up and walked towards the mouth of the well.I hesitated for a moment, then followed suit.When we got to the well, we looked into the mouth of the well together.Through the reflection of the well water, I saw that the well was about three or four meters deep, and the two entangled hemp ropes climbed into the mouth of the well, then hung straight down, and the end of the rope finally plunged into the water inside. Sergeant Wu looked up at me with an extremely strange expression.Of course I also understand why the other party finds it strange.The rope fell into the well water, but the strange thing is that the two ropes are still tightly tied, and the rope is stretched tightly all the way, as if there is a mysterious force pulling it all the time under the water. I held onto the end of the rope and never let go all night! I swallowed dryly, and nervously asked the old man: "Who is it?" My question is vague, but in this context there is no ambiguity.Who strangled Mrs. Meng to death?What is the power hidden under the water? Inspector Wu didn't answer. He looked back at the stiff corpse of Mrs. Meng, and then at the rope protruding into the well water. His face was as dark as iron.After a while, he reached into the well with one hand and slowly grabbed a length of rope near the mouth of the well. I realized what he was going to do, and stopped him anxiously: "Officer Wu, don't..." "What's the matter?" The old man turned his head and looked at me. His eyes were not big at first, but now they are narrowed into a narrow slit. It can be seen that he is extremely nervous. "Grandma Meng said that this well is connected to the earth's energy, and this is actually... the entrance and exit of the undead." The old man laughed dryly "hehe", but the laughter was worse than crying.Then he asked me in a serious manner: "Why, do you believe this too?" "I, I don't believe..." I tried to find an excuse for my panic, "It's just... It's just that this is a murder scene, we should keep it as it is, and don't destroy it easily." "I'm the inspector from the county seat! If I don't investigate the scene, who are we waiting for?" Sergeant Wu raised his voice. He seemed to be reprimanding me, but I could hear that he was more emboldening himself. Cheer up. After saying this, Sergeant Wu took a deep breath, and at the same time his right hand began to exert force on the rope.He tentatively pulled twice at first, but the rope did not loosen at all.The old man gritted his teeth, and followed suit with his left hand on the rope. "Officer Wu!" I reminded the other party again, "You...be careful!" Sergeant Wu's eyes were fixed on the water surface at the bottom of the well, and he turned a deaf ear to my call.I saw his arms tense slowly, and the strength of his whole body was being transferred to the two entangled ropes through his clasped fingers. Suddenly there was a soft "poof" sound underwater, as if something stirred up waves at the bottom of the water.At the same time, the tension on the hemp rope suddenly disappeared, and the rope in Police Chief Wu's hand flicked back suddenly, and then hung down softly.The old man who had exhausted his strength was caught off guard, and his body fell back, staggering and about to fall.Fortunately, I had quick eyesight and quick hands, so I quickly took a step forward to support him. There was a soft sound of "da da da da" in the well, as if something was constantly hitting.Sergeant Wu and I stabilized our bodies first, then we held our breaths, and both of us looked inside the wellhead to see where the strength that stretched the rope came from. But at the bottom of the well close to the water surface, there are two dark, rectangular things that are spinning non-stop.And as they rotated, the two ropes that were entwined like twists were loosened round and round.During the rotation, the two things sometimes collided with each other, and sometimes hit the wall of the well, so they made a "da da" sound. I frowned and asked, "What is that?" The light in the well was dim, and the two things kept moving, so they couldn't see clearly in a hurry. Sergeant Wu didn't speak, but with a gloomy face, he alternately pulled up the rope piece by piece with both hands.Those two dark objects were getting closer and closer to the mouth of the well, and finally let me see their true faces clearly.I blurted out: "This is... a spirit card?" Sergeant Wu reached out at this moment and took the two pieces out of the well.What is that black, rectangular wooden thing, but not a spirit card?According to the list opened by Mrs. Meng yesterday, I bought a total of three such spirit cards from the county seat, and these are exactly two of them. The two strands of hemp rope extending from Mrs. Meng's neck were firmly tied to the base of the spirit tablet.It is conceivable that when the two spiritual cards rotate around each other, they will be woven together with hemp rope, and finally twisted into a "twist".The "twist" twisted tighter and tighter under Mrs. Meng's neck, which could completely suffocate her to death. Sergeant Wu was more detailed than I saw. He was turning over the two spirit cards in his hand and looking at them.At this time, I also noticed that there were words written on the front of the spirit card, one of which was written "Du Yuhong's spiritual seat", and the other was written "Chuhan Mountain's spiritual seat".The characters are all written in cinnabar, as bright red as blood, against the black surface of the card, it looks eerie and strange. I have heard Du Yuhong's name many times from Ah Chuan and Mrs. Meng, and it is not difficult to guess that Chu Hanshan is Chu Yun's biological father—the brave and ruthless Orion in the story! Sergeant Wu looked at the two names on the spirit tablet and meditated silently.Although I was close to him, I couldn't see through what he was thinking.After a while, the old man gently hung the spirit tablet back on the edge of the well, and then began to look around the courtyard. I followed his movements and raised my head to look around.Centering on the corpse of Mrs. Meng, we are all in the mourning hall surrounded by hemp rope and white cloth, but the hemp rope connecting the saponin tree and the eaves of the door has been broken, and the white cloth is falling beside the corpse of Mrs. Meng. all over the place.In front of Pozi Meng's corpse stood the altar that I helped to build last night. All the red candles and incense on the altar had been burned out, and in the middle of the altar, there was still a spiritual tablet. If a spirit summoning technique is to be held, the most important objects on the altar should be the spirit tablets of Du Yuhong and Chu Hanshan.Yesterday, Mrs. Meng opened three spirit cards on her list, which should mean two uses and one reserve.Now the two necessary spirit cards are connected to the life-threatening hemp rope, and fell into the ancient well for no reason, while the spare spirit cards appeared on the altar. This posture is really strange. The spirit tablet on the altar also seemed to have words written on it, but the handwriting was smaller and could not be clearly seen from a distance.Sergeant Wu also discovered this mystery, and immediately walked towards the altar.When I wanted to follow, he stretched out his hand to stop him, saying, "Don't walk around, stay where you are, and don't touch anything." I was taken aback and asked, "Why?" The old man said: "Protect the site." I felt insulted, and raised my head to defend myself: "I'm also a detective!" "You shitty detective." Inspector Wu continued to humiliate me with words, and he walked to the altar without looking back. I snorted angrily, but in the end I still stood where I was told by the other party. Sergeant Wu walked to the altar and picked up the spiritual tablet enshrined on it.When he saw the words written on the spirit card, he immediately said "Huh?" and raised his eyes to look at me at the same time. His eyes were full of surprise and incomprehension at first, and then filled with worry and panic after a while.I was a little hairy from that stare, so I asked anxiously: "What's wrong?" Sergeant Wu put the spirit card on the table with his backhand, as if he was afraid that I would see the writing on the spirit card.Then he waved his hand at me and said, "Go out first and wait for me outside the yard." This time I was not so obedient, I asked: "What is written on it?" and walked towards the altar. Police Chief Wu pointed at me and shouted, "Stop!" His voice was not loud, but he carried a full momentum that could not be defied.I seemed to be stopped by an invisible force, and I couldn't move forward. "Wait for me outside." The old man emphasized again.I confronted him for a while, but in the end I was defeated by the fierce gaze of the other party.I had no choice but to turn around dejectedly and walked out of the courtyard alone. The old man continued to look around in the yard, and I could only stand outside and look around in vain.After about ten minutes like this, I suddenly heard footsteps behind me.Turning around, I saw seven or eight people gathered in a group, walking quickly along the path. At first, there was a person in a long gown and cloth shoes, with an elegant and extraordinary demeanor, but I felt disgusted when I saw it, because this person was Chu Yun's husband Ling Mufeng.Behind him followed two or three loitering men, and four other uniformed policemen.When the group of people walked about ten meters away from me, one of the men took a step forward, pointed at me and shouted, "That's him!" I recognized the man who was watching me last night. After hearing his shout, the four police officers rushed towards me. I saw the fat and skinny policeman who had dealt with me twice. ——Now my suffering masters in Feng'an Town are all here. Seeing their menacing look, I retreated subconsciously and asked, "What are you going to do?" But those policemen ignored me at all, they swarmed up and held me upright, It was like trying to catch a criminal.Seeing that the situation was not good, I quickly raised my voice and called for rescue: "Inspector Wu, Inspector Wu!" "What are you doing?" The old man paced out of the yard in response, asking with a straight face. The skinny policeman stepped forward and saluted, "Someone reported that Mrs. Meng was murdered. We rushed over to arrest the murderer." Chief Wu pointed at me and asked, "Who told you that he is the murderer?" The thin policeman was taken aback, as if he didn't know how to answer, he turned his head and looked at Ling Mufeng who was not far away as if asking for help. Ling Mufeng stepped forward, first cupped his fists at the old man and said: "Inspector Wu has worked hard." With a polite and polite attitude, Inspector Wu glanced at the other party calmly, and replied: "Working hard is what you should do. .” Ling Mufeng said again: "I heard that Mrs. Meng was murdered, is there such a thing?" Sergeant Wu said "hmm": "I'm investigating the scene, what are you making such a fuss about?" Ling Mufeng pointed at me and said: "Someone testified that this Mr. Feng was the last person who had contact with Mrs. Meng last night. From this, Ling speculated, why Mrs. Meng was killed and who was killed? Mr. Feng should be the most clear about these things So I went to the police station to report the case. These police officers were also eager to handle the case, and they arrested people abruptly, which was offensive. Mr. Feng, Ling hereby apologizes to you." After saying this, Ling Mufeng really bowed to me.I just hummed and ignored him. After Ling Mufeng got up, he said again: "It's just what happened last night. Ling has to ask Mr. Feng: What happened between you and Mrs. Meng? Why did Mrs. Meng die in the corpse yard early in the morning?" "How do I know?" I widened my eyes angrily, "Mrs. Meng was fine when I left. It was the two of your men who stayed here all night. What's going on? You ask me? I still want to ask And you!" "What do you mean by that?" Those two people jumped out from behind Ling Mufeng last night, gesticulating and yelling, "The two of us have been staying outside and have never entered the yard at all. You said that Mrs. Meng was fine when you left. Who can prove it? The two of us saw it with our own eyes. You were the last to leave last night, and you were the first to come today. If you say that Mrs. Meng's death has nothing to do with you, who will believe it?" Ling Mufeng waited for the two of them to finish talking, and then waved his hands pretendingly: "Don't quarrel. Inspector Wu is here, and he should decide everything." So all the people turned their attention to the old policeman, which seemed to be forcing the palace.The old man pondered silently for a moment, and finally waved his hands and said, "Take him back to the police station first, and take care of him—wait for me to come back and interrogate him." As soon as I heard this, I became anxious, and I stretched my neck and shouted to the old man: "How can you believe their words? They are all in the same gang. This is obviously a frame-up!" "Now your suspicion is really serious, of course I have to take some measures. If you didn't do it, you can always get your innocence; if you really did it, then you have to plead guilty, and no one can protect you." After Sergeant Wu said this, he went back to the yard alone, regardless of my struggles. The skinny policeman walked up to me again, and said with a smirk: "Did you hear Sergeant Wu's words clearly? All right, cooperate and come with us." Four people surrounded me, and I knew it would be pointless to resist.He could only let out a long sigh, and followed a few policemen to the police station in the town.
