Chapter 32 Chapter 32 The Thief

The night wind blew violently, the vegetation danced, and a man walked up to me, which startled me.Those shoes were not worn by women, but black leather shoes worn by men. The surface was wrinkled and covered with yellow mud.I struggled to get my feet out of the coffin lid, but when I looked up, the person in front of me turned out to be Lin Huhu!I dropped my mobile phone and flashlight aside, and the light reflected on Lin Huo's ferocious face, scarier than a ghost! In this environment, I can no longer hold back, ready to shout desperately.It's close to Machang Village, so as long as you shout loud enough, someone will always hear you.Helpless, just as I was about to call for help, Lin Huo roughly dragged me out of the coffin and covered my mouth tightly.This frightened me, Lin Huo was even scarier than Xiao Weihai, if he twisted it lightly, my neck would be broken.Panicked to the extreme, my strength surged, and after breaking free, I took a big bite on Lin Huhu's strong arm.

"Help!" Lin Huo let go of me in pain. I seized the opportunity and let out a lion's roar.Immediately afterwards, several beams of lights flickered in the woods outside the cemetery. Lin Huo was startled, turned around and ran into the forest behind the cemetery.I was still in shock, grabbed my phone and other things, and stood in the cemetery stupidly, even forgetting the purpose of coming here.But I was still puzzled, why did someone chase after me just as I called out for help? Could it be Superman? Looking at the swaying beams of light over the forest, I just wanted to call out that I was here when a person rushed over first.That person was Bao Zhupo. She panicked and was startled when she saw me, even more frightened than me.Bao Zhupo jumped up like an electric shock, and looked at me blankly. The people chasing after her shouted "Catch the thief", and the voice gradually died down. Bao Zhupo begged me not to see her, and then quickly hid behind the cemetery. In the mountains.

"Don't go there..." Before I could finish my sentence, Bao Zhupo ran over desperately, and there was no time to say "Tiger Lin is inside". After Bao Zhupo fled, I stood calmly in the cemetery and saw three more people chasing after them, namely Village Chief Wang, Boss Mo and Aunt Liu.They were panting, holding wooden sticks and flashlights, looking like they were beating devils.When they saw me standing in the cemetery, they stopped hesitantly and looked me up and down.For a while, the turbulent cemetery became quiet, and everyone looked at each other as if they had seen a ghost.

Village head Wang was stunned for a moment and asked me, "Teacher Tang, why are you here?" "You were the one who stole things just now?" Aunt Liu asked angrily. "Isn't it? How could Teacher Tang Jiuyue steal a pig's tongue?" Boss Mo didn't believe it. Without saying a word, I understood in an instant that they were ambushing the thieves in the village.Recently, Machang Village has been losing things for a long time. The last time someone stole a pig's tongue and fell when hiding in Mo's new house, pouring the tongue all over the floor.I've always wondered about this, because I was there that night and didn't see the thief.More than a month has passed since the incident, and the few managers in front of them must have set a trap to lure out the thief—but, is the thief really Bao Zhupo?

Facing their questions, I had no time to think about Bao Zhu, so I had to explain: "I saw Lin Huhu just now, that's why I chased here, but I can't see anyone else." "Lin Huo? Is he still here?" Village Chief Wang was shocked. I deliberately diverted the topic, nodded and said: "Yeah, I really wonder where he ran to. Didn't you hear me calling for help just now?" "I heard it, and I thought it was a ghost screaming." Boss Mo scratched his head embarrassingly. "What about the thief? Did you see the man who ran over just now?" Aunt Liu asked.

I pointed in the opposite direction and tricked them to chase there. Aunt Liu was a little skeptical, but when others believed it, she had nothing to say.Before Village Chief Wang left, he told me to go back to the elementary school first, so as not to encounter Lin Huhu again, and the teacher did not need to come forward to catch the fugitive.In fact, without their telling, I dare not stay alone in the cemetery.In the middle of the night, which woman with a normal mind would come here, especially since the coffin was still exposed to the ground, and a strange corpse smell permeated the surroundings.

When those three people ran away, I wanted to turn around and leave, only then did I remember why I came to the cemetery.The letter written by Zhao Xiyue asked me to come here at midnight, but she didn't show up, but Lin Huo came instead.The handwriting doesn't look like it was written by force, usually forced by others, the font will not be correct, and there will be obvious jumping feeling.I was frustrated and resentful, why did other people always take the lead? The letter Zhao Xiyue sent to me obviously didn't let others see it!Could it be that Lin Huo followed Zhao Xiyue to the cemetery?

I was in a hurry when Bao Zhupo sneaked out from the end of the cemetery and smiled shyly at me: "Tang Jiuyue, what are you doing here?" "What about you? You still dare to run in, Lin Huo ran over there just now, are you afraid of bumping into him?" I asked angrily. "Lin Huhu is here?" Bao Zhupo was shocked. "You... the village keeps throwing things away, did you steal them?" I asked nervously. "Don't stand here and talk, go back to the village, so that they don't see it." Bao Zhupo pushed me awkwardly, and we walked out of the gloomy cemetery together.Bao Zhupo showed her true colors and couldn't keep the secret any longer, so she simply confessed everything to me.It turned out that Bao Zhupo didn't have the habit of stealing things before. Since her husband went to work outside, she felt flustered by herself, and her hands gradually started to itch.Bao Zhupo is not short of money to open a bun shop, and she doesn't want to steal, but she just can't change it.A month ago, Bao Zhupo went out at night to steal a pig tongue from Boss Mo's house, and fell once; another time, when Xiao Weihai hurt Zhao Xixi, she yelled, but she didn't know that she ran into it while stealing something.After all, it was so late, and the village was not a city, who would come out for a stroll?

I woke up from the mist. No wonder Bao Zhu found out the situation for the first time several times. It turned out that she was the one who stole things.I remember that there were many borrowed tables and chairs at the back door of Boss Mo's house. Bao Zhupo said that she was going to get the tables and chairs back, probably she deliberately left them at night to get them, and then took them with her. Leaving the cemetery and returning to the village, Bao Zhupo begged me not to tell, or I would lose my reputation.I have enough troubles of my own, and I don't have the heart to care about others, so I nodded and agreed.However, stealing is disgraceful and one day you will be caught, and today is an example.I was afraid that Mrs. Bao Zhu would be beaten to death with a stick, so I advised her to get rid of this problem, or call her husband back from outside the mountain.Living alone in the mountains is quite empty, no wonder you steal things and talk to Ouyang Xinye at the same time...

"I was scared to death tonight, I will definitely change it!" Bao Zhu Po said with fear. I took a flashlight and took a look into the village. It was pitch black and no one could be seen.Bao Zhupo was frightened and wanted to go back to the house, so I grabbed her and asked, "Wait a minute, what do you want to steal tonight? Did you see Miss Yue?" "Zhao Yue? Are she and Lin Huhu still around here?" Bao Zhupo was stunned, "I didn't see it. What's wrong?" "It's okay. You go back first." I said perfunctorily. "However..." Bao Zhupo wanted to walk away, then turned around and thought back, "During this time, I seemed to see someone walking around at night. At first I thought it was the person who arrested me, but it should not be Village Chief Wang and the others. .By the way, I saw a strange thing one night, and I was shocked!"

I wanted to ask something, but the wind was blowing constantly in the village and it was freezing cold, so Grandma Bao Zhu asked me to go to her house to sit for a while, and she explained it to me slowly.From my perspective, Bao Zhupo doesn't look like a big villain. She always wants to talk to someone, but she is actually too lonely.So, I relaxed my heart, followed Bao Zhupo into the steamed stuffed bun shop, and closed the door.In the past month, our four young teachers didn't patronize the steamed stuffed bun shop again because of Ouyang Xin's incident. After entering the door, Bao Zhupo asked me to sit down and vomited a lot of bitterness to me, saying that she was very lonely after her husband left.If I hadn't reminded Bao Zhupo, she might have forgotten what to say to me.Nowadays, many people in society live apart for a long time in two places in order to make a living, but they forget that nothing is more important than being together as a family.My sympathy for Bao Zhupo gradually increased, and I wanted to comfort her for a while, but she changed the subject and said in a low voice: "Didn't it rain a month ago? Xiaolong was sent to the hospital! I thought Village Chief Wang's family would definitely No one, I want to go to their house to find something. Guess who I saw that night?" "A month ago? The night when Wang Xiaolong was sent to the hospital?" I was stunned, remembering that night when we slipped to the old horse farm, could it be that Bao Zhu Po saw it? But listening, Bao Zhupo said word by word: "I saw Principal Zhang! He should have been with Village Chief Wang that night! How could he be in the village? So, I think I've seen a ghost! And Principal Zhang is old I went to the racecourse, there are so many ghosts, no one goes there during the day, let alone at night!" "What did you say? Principal Zhang went to the old racecourse that night?!" I was extremely shocked, and couldn't help thinking that someone fired three shots that night. Could it be that the person who shot was really Principal Zhang?His ID card was in the box, and later he took the initiative to say that the ID card was lost, could he be fooling us?That day, someone stole Village Chief Wang’s mobile phone and sent me a text message, asking me to return the box from the old horse farm.At that time, it seemed that only Principal Zhang could get close to Village Chief Wang and steal the phone.If all this is true, what should I do?Principal Zhang is the person I admire the most in the village. Bao Zhupo thought I didn't believe it, and said, "I didn't lie to you, Mr. Tang! If I did, tell them that I stole the things!" "I believe it! Damn, some people say no, some people say yes, I can't explain clearly." I was at a loss for words and couldn't continue, so I changed, "Bao Zhu, you have lived in the village for so long. matter?" Bao Zhupo told me that there used to be a clinic in Machang Village, and the teaching building of the primary school was the building of the clinic.If it hadn't been for the plague that happened more than 20 years ago and a group of people died, the health center would not have been withdrawn, and so many people in Machang Village would not have died.I knew all these things, so I asked Bao Zhupo if there was a second health center in Machang Village.According to the photos and videos taken by Jiang Lin, there should be a second health center in Machang Village, and something happened to Fang Fangfang there.Bao Zhupo is a local, and she didn't even know about it, so I didn't continue to ask, but I was more curious about where Jiang Lin had been before and what secrets she had discovered.It was getting late, I was cold all over, chatted with Bao Zhupo a few more words, then got up and went back to the dormitory. Liu Qin was tired from cycling and slept soundly. She didn't notice that I had left.Before entering the door, I looked at the neighbors on both sides, wondering if anyone had gone out.Lin Huo suddenly appeared. If he hadn't followed Zhao Xiyue to the cemetery, it would have been the people around me who informed Lin Huo. That's why Zhao Xiyue warned in the letter that he could not trust anyone, let alone tell anyone. .But what good is Lin Huohu meeting me? The cemetery is too close to the village. My shouting will definitely alarm the villagers. Could it be that he wants to kill me and make me disappear like Jiang Lin?At this moment, I gradually understood Ouyang Xin's difficulties. No wonder he kept not letting me touch these things, or went to the police in a big way. There were too many secrets and dangers lurking around. This night, I fell asleep in a daze, and when I woke up on Sunday morning, it was already noon.Liu Qin got up earlier than me. Seeing that I was fast asleep, she first boiled a pot of hot water, washed my face and brushed my teeth.I figured it out drowsily, and when I wanted to lie down for a while, a postman knocked on the half-closed door.The postman usually comes once every two weeks, sometimes only once a month, because Machang Village is remote, and there are not many mails sent and received, let alone urgent mails. I have been in Machang Village for a year, and I have not received emails, and I keep in touch with my friends by mobile phone.I thought the postman was looking for Liu Qin, but as soon as he opened the door, he asked if Tang Jiuyue was there and there was a letter from her.I got up suspiciously and walked to the door, thinking that whoever sent me the letter, couldn't it be written by Zhao Xixi again?After sending the postman away, I took a look at the letter. There was no address on the envelope, and the handwriting was not Zhao Xie's. I don't know who wrote it. Seeing that I had a letter, Liu Qin asked, "Who wrote it?" "I don't know." I tore open the seal wonderingly, and when I opened it, I was stunned.
