Zhong Tianzheng had calculated their walking route in advance.

Ask Zhang Yifei first.

Then ask the witness, that is, the first person who found Lao Zhang drinking drugs to commit suicide at that time.

last.

They need to go to the place where Lao Zhang drank the medicine.

The reason for this planning.

It's because the scene of the incident has basically been destroyed. The clues that should be left will still be on the scene, and there will be no clues. It's better to ask the relevant people first and compare them with the scene according to their description.

Last night, they asked about the little girl's details in the canteen. No accident, someone will certainly help to reach Zhang Yifei's ears, so Zhong Tianzheng needs a night's precipitation time.

He needs to give Zhang Yifei a process of self struggle and panic.

But in today's inquiry.

Zhang Yifei did not show anything abnormal.

There is also no abnormality in the performance of this chapter.

His reaction was fierce enough.

But if you think about it, his performance is reasonable.

If this kind of thing happens to anyone, it will exclude their investigation.

……

Ten minutes later.

Zhong Tianzheng, Ah Xiang, appeared in front of a row of old houses.

The houses in this row are really old. They are still mud houses with a long history.

The walls are made of earth rammed into large squares, which are superimposed layer by layer, with upper and lower layers, and tiles on the top.

Not to mention, this kind of house has a great advantage, that is to keep warm.

But to say the bad, that's a lot.

Poor robustness, etc.

When the old houses in the countryside were built, they were built next to each other.

There are four families in this row, one by one.

Now the policy is more and more strict, and it is more and more rare to build houses with cultivated land. The homestead is tight. According to the truth, this kind of house should have been demolished and rebuilt on the original basis.

One of the reasons why this row of houses has been retained until now is the way they are built.

When the house was built, it was next to each other.

If you want to dismantle a house unilaterally, it is not established.

When you demolish one house, the walls of another house must fall down, so you dare not demolish it.

There are four families in this row.

The other three households have long been abandoned and no one lives at all. Most of them are used to collect sundry rooms such as dry firewood.

Zhong Tianzheng, the reason why Xiang came here.

Because the man who found Lao Zhang lived here.

The door is not closed.

There are still red firecrackers at the door. Someone should have come to pay a new year's call.

A tall and thin old man sat inside, covered with a quilt and baking around the stove. The whole person was in a very quiet state, silently looking at the front in a daze.

I asked specifically before I came here.

Living here is an old man in his eighties. He is also a long-lived old man in the village.

When the village was just formed, everyone was a little related by blood. With more and more branches, the blood relationship became weaker and weaker.

According to kinship, Zhong Tianzheng should call him Grandpa.

Grandpa has four sons, who were separated from each other long ago.

He lives here alone now.

"Hello, Grandpa."

Zhong Tianzheng went in with Ah Xiang and said hello.

Zhong Tianzheng said hello to him. Mr. Peng didn't give any response. He shouldn't have heard it.

It was estimated that the two people came in and blocked the light at the door. Grandpa felt it. Then he turned and looked at them.

Grandpa was wearing a black wool hat, a thick jacket, a lot of age spots on his face, and his turbid eyes looked a little dim. He nodded at them: "who are you?"

He spoke in dialect. Fortunately, Zhong Tianzheng heard Comrade Xiong Xiaocai say something, so there was no big obstacle to communication.

Yes, Xiang.

Can only be on the side, like a silly sister silently with a smiling face.

"Grandpa Peng's grandson."

"What?"

Sure enough.

The old man's hearing deteriorated a little, but he asked again with his head on his side.

Zhong Tianzheng had to get close to his ear. His voice was a little louder. He exchanged several sentences continuously. Finally, he explained his kinship, and then asked directly about the situation at that time.

"Ah, you said Lao Zhang!"

Speaking of this, Grandpa adjusted his sitting posture and told Zhong Tianzheng again: "that's the case. That afternoon, I didn't know what to do, so I went out for a walk. Then I saw Lao Zhang in the field and began to shout. Later, when others heard it, they came over."

Zhong Tianzheng was stunned. Originally, he was ready to listen. Who knows, Grandpa finished the matter in a word.

"Alas, Lao Zhang was also a hard-working man. When he came to our village at that time, he had nothing. He supported a home with his own hands, but unexpectedly, he finally drank pesticide and committed suicide."

The elderly have few opportunities to speak, and generally no one will come to talk to them, so Grandpa expressed his feelings for a time.

"Yes, yes."

Zhong Tianzheng took out a cigarette, handed it to Grandpa and helped him light the fire.

After organizing the language a little, he asked, "did you see any other people when you found Lao Zhang? It's nearby, around or something, or someone else passed by. "

"No."

Grandpa took a sip of smoke and shook his head: "when I found him, I saw that he was dead. I'm afraid he was quite far away from me. The whole man fell behind the haystack and wailed."

"Ah?"

Zhong Tianzheng was stunned again.

The pesticide Lao Zhang drank didn't make him die on the spot, but it was enough to make him half dead.

Make sense.

Even if he didn't lose consciousness after drinking pesticide, human instinct prompted him to make a painful sound, but the cry should not be loud. If the sound is loud enough, it should be found by others.

So here comes the question....

Grandpa is a person who can't hear you clearly when you speak in front of him. How did he hear this painful cry?

In order to determine this small problem, Zhong Tianzheng reconfirmed and asked, "how far away were you at that time?"

"More than twenty meters."

Grandpa stretched out his hand and said, "I just came down from the back mountain and walked on the top ridge. He was in the middle behind the haystack in the field."

As soon as he said this, the picture in Zhong Tianzheng's mind came out.

Grandpa stood at the highest position and saw Lao Zhang in the middle height rice field.

Isn't his perspective very good?
