Team Xu, Please Hug II

Chapter 425
"I'm just telling the truth." Li Tao thought about how to restore what he told Zhou Hongshan before, but Li Xinqiang couldn't wait to ask again.

"Specifically, how did you tell the police specifically?"

"Uncle... I'm just... Oh no, why do you care so much about what I say? I just say what I see, nothing special."

"Officer Zhou just asked me about the situation at that time. I said that I wanted to find you when I went home. I saw you fainted on the grass and sent you to the hospital. Officer Zhou asked me why it was so late to find you. You, I said I was going to watch a movie, and I happened to go home and pass by the village committee..."

"That's it... Then Dr. Xiao Lin came, let's chat casually..."

"It's really nothing..."

Li Tao said again, he always felt that since Li Xinqiang knew that the police in city A and the bones had been dug up in the woods, he was in a bad mood.

That look of gloom was different from the look when a homicide happened in the village before.

It wasn't that sad before.

"Uncle... What's the matter with you, tell me honestly, how did you get this injury, did someone attack you, do you know?"

Li Tao saw that Li Xinqiang had been emphasizing to Zhou Hongshan that he had wrestled himself, but Lin Jingjing checked the wound and said that Li Xinqiang seemed to have been attacked by someone, not that he wrestled by himself, and there were indeed no hard substances such as stones on the grass.

He is more familiar with it than anyone else, and Li Xinqiang is the same. He has to work there every day, and he also passes through the grass when he returns home. Wrestling there is really a bit...

Thinking about it in that way, Chen Youde and Li Gui, who were drunk and fell into their own pond and drowned, immediately popped into Li Xinqiang's mind. Isn't this nature the same as Li Xinqiang's?
"Uncle... I think you are..."

"Go back."

Before Li Tao could finish speaking, Li Xinqiang spoke immediately and asked Li Tao to go back.

He just wants to be alone now.

"No, how can I leave you alone when you are like this, you still need someone to take care of you... Uncle, you tell me it's okay, I won't tell the police, did something serious happen, tell me Does the death of those people have anything to do with it?"

Li Tao asked again, he stretched out his hand and pulled the chair to the side of the bed, and then sat down.

Li Xinqiang's face was pale and bloodless, and he looked particularly bad.

"It's okay, you go back, I can do it myself."

Li Xinqiang still didn't want to say anything, and with a tired look, he waved his hands and signaled Li Tao to leave quickly.

"Uncle... we are our own family, what can you not say to me, since you know that the police from city A have come, your whole person has changed, or is it related to the bones in the forest? Do you know who that is? "

Li Tao asked suspiciously again.

"Shut up..." But Li Xinqiang yelled at him, "I warn you, don't bring up this matter. The police didn't announce the news. How did you know it? When Officer Zhou asked, what did you say? You said you peeked? "

"Are you stupid? I am the village head of Huayu Village. I am responsible. So many people died here, and now bones are found. I am so worried. Do I need to ask?"

"I'm fine, you hurry up and go, don't be wordy, and do your own work well."

With a serious face, Li Xinqiang waved his hand again, impatiently letting Li Tao leave.

After being scolded by Li Xinqiang, Li Tao couldn't say anything.

"Then I... go first, call me later if you need anything."

Li Tao knew that he was annoying Li Xinqiang, so he got up and left the ward feeling aggrieved.

After Li Tao left, Li Xinqiang fell into deep thought. He sat against the head of the bed, remembering what happened in the middle of the night last night.

No, it should be said that it started yesterday afternoon.

When he learned that bones were found in the woods, he drove away Li Tao. He fell into deep thought just like he is now, and he kept thinking of the fire 20 years ago in his mind.

The more he thought about it, the more panicked he felt, and he immediately went to take the medicine, for fear that if he didn't pay attention, he would also meet Hades.

After taking the medicine, Li Xinqiang lay on the table for a while. He really fell asleep and dreamed. The scene in the dream was still the fire and the screams.

He couldn't tell which was reality and which was a dream.

He didn't even know if someone was shouting in the fire or behind the fire.

Did someone die in the fire, or did someone die before the fire.

Later, Li Xinqiang was woken up by the ringing of the phone. He was startled and returned to reality.

He saw that it was an unfamiliar number, but he got through.

After answering the phone, the voice of a robot was obviously processed.

The man said—

"If you want to know the cause of those people's deaths, meet at the back door of the village committee at [-] o'clock in the evening, and prepare some things in advance... Heh..."

"who are you?"

The other party's voice was processed, so I didn't know if it was a man or a woman.

"Who am I? Does it matter? What matters is that I know your secret, the secret from 20 years ago."

"what?"

When the other party said that, Li Xinqiang panicked.

"Who the hell are you?" Li Xinqiang got up in shock, and his hand holding the phone was also tight.

"You'll know it when you come here, don't forget that thing from 20 years ago..."

"Beep beep..."

Without giving Li Xinqiang a chance to continue answering, the other party hung up the phone.

Li Xinqiang was a little disappointed and sat down in a panic. After a while, he realized that he put down the phone.

Immediately, he got up, picked up the keys of the house and rushed to the house.

After that he was out of the office, but went home.

At eight o'clock in the evening, Li Xinqiang went to the appointment——

He came to the back door of the village committee, next to the grass where he had fainted.

At this point, everyone has already left work, or in other words, there are not many cadres in the village committee now.

After Li Tao was driven away by him, he never showed up.

Li Xinqiang held a bag in his hand, and no one knew what was in it.

He anxiously waited for that person to arrive. He didn't know the identity of the other person, whether it was a man or a woman.

But after waiting for a long time, he didn't see that person coming. Li Xinqiang was worried that someone was playing a prank, and also worried that the person would come after he left, and he would become angry if he couldn't see him.

So he called that person, which was the number in the afternoon, but it kept showing that no one answered.

Finally he gave up and waited an hour, but the man still didn't come.

Just as Li Xinqiang was about to go home from the small path, a figure was illuminated by the shallow light at the back door of the village committee.
