The willow leaves are slowly

Zhang Wenshi stared at the pair of beautiful hands and became obsessed. He quietly put the hands into the small ice room in his house and preserved them.

Then he straightened his clothes, walked out of his room and into the courtyard, stopped a busy servant and asked, "Is A-Lian here?"

The servant said respectfully, "Dean Zhang, A-Lian is not here today."

Mr. Zhang frowned.

"Hey, have you heard? Another human pig appeared in the suburbs, and it's a woman again."

"I heard about it. I don't know who is so cruel and brutal to kill people."

"Be careful when you go out next time."

The two cleaning ladies were talking about it, and Dean Zhang's brows furrowed even deeper.

The vegetable market at Huangcheng Road.

Liu Tong was dozing off in his butcher shop, reminiscing about the pair of extremely beautiful feet. He shouted in a loud voice: "Boss Liu, are you still selling meat?"

Liu Tong suddenly woke up and said with a smile: "Sister Wang, what do you want to buy today?"

"Hey! Who are you calling "big sister"? You are much older than her!" Sister Wang stroked her hair, her face full of flesh and pretentiousness.

"Yes, yes, Fairy Wang, what would you like to order today?" Liu Tong had a mercenary look on his face.

"Hahaha, since you have such a sweet mouth, give me two pig's trotters!" Sister Wang laughed so hard that her body shook.

"Okay, please wait a moment." Liu Tong turned his back and showed a look of contempt.

"Sister Wang, have you heard? A human pig has appeared in the suburbs of Beijing again!" A woman in blue linen clothes whispered in Sister Wang's ear.

"Really? I didn't know that." Sister Wang said in surprise.

"My father went to the outskirts of Beijing to herd sheep early this morning. He saw people from the government office and found another body. This time, the hand was missing!"

With a clang, the pig's trotter was chopped off by Liu Tong!

"Ouch! You scared me." Sister Wang exclaimed, covering her chest.

Liu Tong smiled and said, "Forgive me, I can't chop it down without using more strength!"

Sister Wang picked up the pig's trotter, paid the silver, and whispered jokingly, "If you don't know this, you would think that you chopped off the human pig in the suburbs of Beijing, hahahaha!"

"Oh my, Fairy Wang, you can't say such things!" Liu Tong held the bone-cutting knife in his hand, his knuckles turning white.

"Haha, I was just teasing you. Look how scared you are. Now I'm leaving and going home to cook." Sister Wang twisted her way out of the butcher shop.

"Goodbye, Fairy Wang!" Liu Tong saw the guest off with a smile on his face.

After Sister Wang walked away, Liu Tong realized something was wrong and quickly closed the shop and went home. He wanted to deal with the pair of feet without anyone noticing.

"Lao Liu, why are you closing so early?"

"Ah, something happened at home, I have to go back."

"Is it because your wife came back from her parents' home and is in a hurry to go back to the bridal chamber?! Hahaha!"

"Get out!" Liu Tong didn't bother to joke with them and walked home in a hurry. All he could think about was the box in the ice room in the basement.

In front of Liu Tong’s house.

"Caixia, you just came back?" asked an old woman in brown linen clothes.

Jin Caixia was opening the door. "Yes, I was worried about Lao Liu and wanted to come back early."

"Are all these things bought for your Lao Liu?"

"There are Lao Liu's and Ah Sheng's."

"Ah Sheng isn't young anymore, it's time for him to get married. I'll help you find one later. Alan from Old Wang's family to the east is similar to your Ah Sheng. That girl is very good. Let's pick a good day and I'll go and act as a matchmaker."

"Okay, Aunt Wu, I'll wait for your good news then."

"Okay!" Aunt Wu smiled happily.

After saying goodbye to Aunt Wu, Jin Caixia went home and started cleaning the house. During the time she was back at her parents' home, the house was in a mess because of Liu Tong. After finishing the housework and preparing meals, she wanted to add two delicious dishes for Liu Tong, so she went to the cellar to get the ingredients.

After going down to the cellar, the candlelight was dim. Jin Caixia took the ingredients she wanted and planned to get some ice. She went down to the cellar again, opened the ice room and saw something wrapped in cloth. She gently pulled open the cloth and saw an exquisite box...

"Ah!!" With a scream, Jin Caixia was frightened by the feet of the person in the box and fell to the ground. Liu Tong, who was standing at the entrance of the cellar, was panting and sweating. He was also very surprised that Jin Caixia came back today.

"Madam!" Liu Tong hurried down to the cellar and saw Jin Caixia with a pale face pointing at the box, so scared that she couldn't speak.

Liu Tong quickly went over to cover the box and slowly approached Jin Caixia. He said softly, "Don't be afraid, Madam. I will get rid of it in a moment."

Jin Caixia stepped back repeatedly, tears welling up in her eyes. She shrank into a corner and trembled as she said, "Did you... kill the people in the suburbs of Beijing?"

"No! No! Madam!" Liu Tong answered firmly and wanted to go forward and help her up.

She dodged repeatedly, "Don't come over! If you didn't kill him, why would you have... have that!" Jin Caixia said in horror, pointing at the box.

"Madam, listen to me. I don't know who put this box in front of our house. I just...just liked it too much, so I kept it. I really didn't kill the person!" Liu Tong explained hurriedly.

Jin Caixia stood up tremblingly, "Then why don't you report it to the police?"

"I can't report it to the police. If I do, I won't be able to explain clearly. I don't know who left it in front of my door. I can't tell the people in the government office. They will arrest me."

"No, we must report to the authorities. It will be even harder to explain if we don't. Let's report to the authorities now! Now!" Jin Caixia shouted. She wanted to leave the cellar and go to the government office.

Liu Tong quickly grabbed her and cried bitterly, "Madam, Madam, you must not report it to the police. I will go and get rid of this box, and we will just pretend that nothing happened, okay, Madam!"

"You didn't kill anyone, so what are you afraid of? Two people have died now. This matter is very unusual. Let's hand it over to the government and explain it clearly. The government won't make things difficult for you!" Jin Caixia persuaded earnestly.

"No, Madam, I don't want to cause any trouble. Let's not report it to the police. Think about Ah Sheng. We still have Ah Sheng. If I am implicated in this matter and my reputation is ruined, how will Ah Sheng cope with it?"

"When you decided to keep this box, didn't you think about Ah Sheng? Didn't you think about me?" Jin Caixia's eyes were full of tears.

Liu Tong knelt on the ground, hugged her legs, and said mournfully: "Madam, I was wrong, I was really wrong, please forgive me, please don't report to the police! Don't report to the police!"

"Liu Tong, this matter cannot be left unclear. The government will investigate it sooner or later. By then, you will not be able to explain yourself even if you are right. For the sake of A Sheng and for your innocence, you must report to the authorities immediately!" Jin Caixia said seriously.

She mustered up her courage and took the box containing the human foot. Liu Tong stood up, with a conflicting feeling in his mind.

If Jin Caixia were to report the case to the authorities, it would not just be a matter of a pair of human feet. He might become a murder suspect. He would visit brothels, and his habits that he did not want to be known would be exposed in public. At that time, he would be disgraced and it would be more painful than death!

"No, no, ma'am! Don't you really want to think about me?!" Liu Tong shouted.

"Let me go, let me go! I'm just thinking about you!" Jin Caixia struggled to break free, holding the box, and walked towards the cellar entrance.

Liu Tong stepped forward and hugged Jin Caixia from the back, pulled her back, leaned his head on her shoulder, and whispered with tears in his eyes: "Madam, why are you so disobedient..."

Jin Caixia suddenly stopped moving and stood straight. After a moment, a mouthful of blood spurted out!

She tried her best to look back at Liu Tong...

puff!puff!puff!

Liu Tong stabbed Jin Caixia in the vitals several more times!

"Madam, have a good rest!" Liu Tong gently put Jin Caixia on the ground and took the box. Jin Caixia's eyes were filled with disbelief. She stared at Liu Tong in pain, tears sliding down her face...

"Husband...husband..." Before she could finish her words, she spat out a mouthful of blood and died.

Liu Tong threw away the boning knife in his hand, put the box aside, and sat on the ground. His hands were shaking and his body was soaked with sweat. The cellar was so quiet that one could hear his pounding heartbeat and rapid breathing...

Jin Caixia's blood spread out, and Liu Tong seemed to be stung by the red color. He picked up the box and hurriedly moved backwards a few times to avoid the bright red color.

"Clang, clang!" A sound broke the silence, and Liu Tong came back to his senses with a start.

"Who?!" he shouted, and walked out of the cellar in two steps. The jar at the door of the cellar fell over. Looking up, he saw a figure in brown linen clothes running forward in panic. He hurriedly chased after him!

"Ah!" The old woman in brown linen clothes was captured and dragged back into Liu Tong's house. Liu Tong strangled the old woman's neck with one hand to prevent her from screaming, and locked the door with the other hand.

"Don't kill me, don't kill me. I'm blind and deaf. I saw nothing and heard nothing." The old woman begged for mercy in a hurry with difficulty.

Liu Tong was panting, pinching the old woman's neck and said, "Aunt Wu, why did you come to my house?!"

"I... I had agreed with Caixia to be a matchmaker for Asheng, but I forgot to ask Asheng's horoscope. I thought of coming to Caixia to ask, please don't kill me, don't kill me..." Aunt Wu began to cry.

"Ha!" Liu Tong sneered, "Aunt Wu, I'm sorry, you... can't leave!"
